I am trying to create the rotating grenade drop as seen in DCX Paintball , this would be for stalingrad Coop server that I am managing and this would make it more intersting I think. I thought of the rotating paradrop and just adding grenades to the radarbun like this ....

OS.con

Code: Select all

rem -----------------------------------------------------
rem --- Rotating Grenade Drops --------------------------
rem -----------------------------------------------------

Object.create radarbun_M1
Object.absolutePosition 535.6/50/326.81
Object.rotation 0/0/1.52588e-005

OST.con

Code: Select all

rem -----------------------------------------------------
rem --- Rotating Grenade Drop Code ----------------------
rem -----------------------------------------------------

ObjectTemplate.Active radarbun_tower_M1
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 5/0/0
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 10/0/0
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 15/0/0
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 20/0/0
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 25/0/0
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 30/0/0
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 35/0/0
ObjectTemplate.addTemplate GrenadeAllies
ObjectTemplate.setPosition 40/0/0

Well that code is not working, then I got thinking that maybe its because there is no code there to tell when the grenades should spawn there or how many. So this code is fubar and I cant think of a solution , I know this could work its just getting pointed in the correct direction, any suggestions ?

I've not seen the rotating grenade drop.. What is it exactly?

you would need to addtemplate a ObjectSpawner that put out the grenades, however its not possible to spawn projectiles ssm. i dont remember if it just dont work or if they spawn but you cant see them.

try and see what happens

Only ssm, or wasn't spawning projectiles even impossible at all?

The "GrenadeAllies" is a HandFireArms template btw, the projectile to use would be "GrenadeAlliesProjectile".

Ya I tried it with a spawner attached and then tried again and a few other ways too but neither works , after more searching I did find out that projectiles cannot be spawned SS , sad cause that would have been a fun code, maybe something I will try with a custom map.

And fook , on DCX Paintball they have rotating grenade drops that cover the playing field, keeps you moving as if you stay in the same spot a nade will kill you, very fun and challenging . Thanks thou fellas.
