problem scripting an unit

lgustavomp · Post by **lgustavomp** » 09 Apr 2007, 05:16

hello ppl.

I'm trying to learn how to script a basic unit on Spring.. but it's not being easy. Cause i don't find any spring BOSes as references.

Here's my try. Is an Enforcer with a Raider cannon.. but both cannons doesn't fire nor aim in game. Only the depthcharges are fired.

I searched the forum for examples to copy script fragments... but i've not found any helpfull things.

What am i doing wrong? The img (with piece names) and BOS are attached. Any help would be greatly apreciated.

Weapon 1 = main original cannon
Weapon 2 = the new raider cannon
Weapon 3 = depthcharge

Code: Select all

Try starting here first. it is a walk through on a tank.

I cleaned it up a bit for you... note the functions that I said should be deleted. See if my changing the number conventions helped. Also it is useful to group similar functions as I have so you can find things when debugging.

Spring does use SetMaxReloadTime

smoth · Post by **smoth** » 09 Apr 2007, 14:53

really? what does it use it for? I have stripped it out of my mod for the most part.

FLOZi · Post by **FLOZi** » 09 Apr 2007, 17:54

Same thing as OTA... allows you to set restore_delay relative to the longest reload time of any weapon on the unit - prevents turrets starting to restore to position before firing the next round.

KDR_11k · Post by **KDR_11k** » 09 Apr 2007, 18:24

Spring calls AimWeapon so often you can use a delay of a second or so.

zwzsg · Post by **zwzsg** » 09 Apr 2007, 22:40

You could remove the abaim() and the TargetCleared(time) (and the starting of abaim()), in your script they're pointless: signal 8 would kill AimTertiary, but if abaim() gets past 4sec or if TargetCleared is called, it means AimTertiary is already on its way to destruction.

AimPrimary and AimSecondary start the same RestoreAfterDelay(). I wouldn't have dared to do that, and would have given each its own "Restore" function. In TA having two instances of the same function running at once leads to disasters. Maybe Spring support its, but would still be cleaner to have two independant "Restore", one for Primary one for secondary.

Otherwise the script seems correct.

I hope you won't take offence if I ask, but you did compiled your BOS into a COB, right?

lgustavomp · Post by **lgustavomp** » 10 Apr 2007, 05:37

Thanks guys.

smoth and zwzsg. I'm working on those things that you pointed. And yes.. i compiled.. cause if i've not, the Weapon1 would work i think (i have not changed anything on it). And it isn't. Only the Weapon3 (depthcharge) is working.

lgustavomp · Post by **lgustavomp** » 10 Apr 2007, 06:41

grr.. not worked. Damn guys, can't be possible. I lost hours and hours searching for stuff here.. on smoth forum.. changing litter things here and there... did what you guys told me... and absolutely NOTHING diferent happens. Everytime is the same: i order the unit to attack and, it fires only the depthcharge (weapon3). The turrets remain stactic.

Someone has a BOS of an unit with 3 weapons that can share? (a naval unit would be better to understand better the 'signal' thing)

here's the updated BOS

What happens when you go into FPS mode?

The turrets reamain stactic and only the depthcharge is fired

hmm... have you checked the values on your cob constants lately? There are a few normal things you can do that tend to erase those from your system's registry, like opening up more than one scriptor window. (I am assuming you are using scriptor here). They should definitaly not be 0, Angular should be 182 and Linear should be 163840.

That is exaclty what was happening. Both values was 0. I'ts working fine now.
