Registered 18/02/2005 Points 646	28th December, 2007 at 19:27:30 - SO here I am working on my game and sudenlly I realize: WOW I really DO have a big load of diferent weapons (49) It will be a big pain in the ass to code each of them to colide with the enemy and do individually more or less powerfull strikes. So I thought of a qualifier with would work for all weapons and only change the damage output based on an INI database with individual Weapon Data. I go ahead and put all 49 weapons into the qualifier and do: +(qualifier)ARMS colides with Enemy - Change animation to "Hurt" - Bounce - so on ... But now the enemy totally ignores the rest of his A.I. functions. I mean, he walks throu walls, he ignores the character when they are near (even though he should atack)and the strange thing is that this all happened just by adding the simple (+(qualifier)ARMS colides with Enemy) Why the hell is this? and Do you by any chance have any ideas to do this diferently? Thanx Guys Profile edited as it messed the layout of the site up.

You'll have to copy and paste the code for your 40+ weapons over and over whenever you update.

Thanx Guys If you're using mmf2 you can change alterable values in the properties manager in the frame editor. That way you don't need to code anything really. .

Zethell The Daily Douchebag Registered 15/04/2005 Points 123	29th December, 2007 at 08:11:32 - Well, its either a bug in MMF2, which wouldnt be that unusuall. Or, you changed something that was part of some other code, and now when you replaced that bit with this new code, its only naturall that the other code dosnt work anymore. Seeing the source for most of your projects i'd say this is probably the reason. TDC's Daily Douchebag, since 2005!

Do you have mmf2? when you click on an object you get the properties manager box. Where you can edit various things like alterable values. So the objects will start with the value you've typed in, Right? now i assume you've made all of your bullets or whatever in the same group, so when bullet object collides with the enemy object you can make the event say, subtract alterable value from enemy alterable value (where the value is damage for bullets and health for the enemy) .
