I wasn't aware that USEWEAPON took a value.

I thought so too but I opened throw10.fpi (for characters with grenades) and I found two different uses for it (useweapon=30) and (useweapon=60)

here's the script

+ Code Snippet

;Artificial Intelligence Script

;Header

desc          = Look and Throw, Set Use Strength based on Player Distance

;Triggers

:state=0,plrcanbeseen:state=1,settarget
:state=0:runfpidefault=1
:state=1,plrcannotbeseen:runfpidefault=1
:state=1:rotatetoplr
:state=1,ifweapon=0:reloadweapon
:state=1,ifweapon=1,rateoffire:state=2,setframe=6
:state=2:incframe=6
:state=1,ifweapon=1,plrdistfurther=400,plrelevwithin=10:movetotarget=1,animate=5

:state=2,framebeyond=6 60,plrelevfurther=10:useweapon=1
:state=2,framebeyond=6 60,plrdistwithin=100:useweapon=1
:state=2,framebeyond=6 60,plrdistwithin=200:useweapon=30
:state=2,framebeyond=6 60,plrdistwithin=400:useweapon=60
:state=2,frameatend=6:state=1,reloadweapon

;End of Script

any ideas?

The number after 'useweapon=' determines the fire strength of the shot.

And the line in the FPSC source:

+ Code Snippet

entityelement(e).firestrength=aiactionseq(seq).value

This line 'aiactionseq(seq).value' is the number that is put after the 'useweapon='

let me see if I got this right, say the normal weapon damage is 20.. if I write useweapon=10 it would be 200?

No, it seems you can set the firestrength lower than the normal strength, here's the full section of code from FPSC-Source:

+ Code Snippet

     case AIACTUSEWEAPON:
      rem fire weapon (entity may have)
      tgunid=entityelement(e).currentweapon
      if tgunid>0
       if entityelement(e).currentammo>0 or gun(tgunid).settings.reloadqty=0
        if entityelement(e).currentammo>0
         entityelement(e).currentammo=entityelement(e).currentammo-1
        endif
        entityelement(e).fireweapon=1
        rem FPSCV105RC2 - strength of fire (throw grenade when plr close)
        if aiactionseq(seq).value>0
         entityelement(e).firestrength=aiactionseq(seq).value
        else
         entityelement(e).firestrength=100
        endif
       endif
      else
       rem does enemy make dry-fire sound
      endif
     endcase

Are you sure that that part of the throw10.fpi script has been integrated into X9 yet? Also, this seems to have only to do with throw/grenade, and not firing weapons, so would that be the throwing distance?

@knxrb: oh so the default value (when I call useweapon with no customization) is 100

Thank You
but still I think it's pretty usless and very unreal especially for grenades

@xplosys: yes cause I don't even have x10, and no it has nthn to do with the firing distance, it's is controlled by the flakspec file..
