Coding weapons

[Bigboss]

How would you code say,
a gun or a knife and have a Heads up display on the screen and shoot and everything???

[owenisred]

waow good luck with that

seroiusly tho, would it not be easier copying bits from saurbraten, and changing the 3d model?

[Bigboss]

welll lets see
im gunna have about 20 different weapons in this game
all I would really need is how to code it and all to like 1 gun then do the rest and yes
I kno it takes 1 hr for 1 gun

IDK how to do it, but this is what you need to do for 1 gun + enemies

get a player model, + the PM with all the weapons on it

Script the following actions: Pulling it out, putting it away, reloading, shooting, damage it does, health (you + enemies),enemies, places the enemies can go so they can chase you/shoot at you

Things for hud:
a .png pic file with bullet count and reloading
Health (optional)


Other things you might want to include:
How many weapons can you have at once?


Did i miss anything?

Well... For starters you need a lot of knowledge with C++, You also need to know how to make 3D Placeholders (for weapons and whatnot), You then need to re-activate the weapons in Sandbox, You also need to compile it after you add the weapons. Then you need 2 Display units and the Icons can be whatever you want. I think you should leave it to those who know some C++ Like Hirato... Or myself, after I learn it.
