I've now completed my grenade launcher, but I'm having a major problem.

The launcher has a 6 shot drum magazine, so the player can plonk out 6 grenades before re-loading. Everything works fine, until the 4th grenade....

if I fire them individually its ok, but when you shoot off a whole clip, I get an illegal object error when I fire the 4th shot!!

So, if anyone can tell me how to solve this, I'll give them a free copy of the completed launcher (cuz without them it wont work!!)

As with all the guns I've been making a non-pickup entity non-vweap basic version will be available free anyway, but if someone can solve this for me, I'll drop them the full product.

Cheers, Butters.

PS. (if of course there is a max-flak limit hard coded in the engine that's causing the crash, then...... Im screwed.)

I couldn't script if my life depended on it, but i suggest, if possible, if you shoot off 3 grenades really fast, after the third one it stops and wont shoot, and you get a HUD saying, OVER HEATED BARREL-COOLDOWN IN PROGRESS-COOL DOWN COMPLETE, and 2 seconds after that, you can shoot again. I highly doubght this is possible, but just a suggestion.

P.S., if it works, could you send it to me first, through email, if you want, totaly up to you.

@Rick M

As usual Rick, it's creative, but not really possible! Not a bad idea tho, I'm trying to implement something similar with the dual chainguns for the final release

@me self.. i tried that and you're right. You legend you.

I tried to hug you but got a shock from the back of the monitor.

When the texture is done I'll send you a copy of the gun.

Leave me your email k?

butters

ps, I've sorted it for test game by setting the explode timer so there can never be more than 2 grenades on the screen at once, by the time you can fire the third, the first has exploded

hey dude.

I tried a built game and it worked, but then when I tried it again later in a full level, it just crashed into oblivion!

So I'm totally stuck.

I'll still send you a copy of it on the off chance you can get it working. And I'll include some other bits and bobs, because I'm probably gonna give the gun away free since it doesn't work.

Peace

butters
