I am dumb!

[DrewbieDoobie007]

I cant get a supershotgun to shoot, say, 5 times with one shot. I tried to move codepointer to unused frames but it is not working, I need a working example that I can go off of because everything I have tried doesn't work!

edit--
GOT IT, nevermind sorry, but I do need to make it check for ammo to see if there is enough for a shot, that way it doesnt go into negatives. Also, is there a way to make it still only use 2 shells even though it is actually firing 5 times (10 shells)

For BEX patches, you have this option:

Code: Select all

Weapon 8 (SSG)
Ammo use = 1
Min ammo = 2

Min ammo use is the minimum amount of ammo it will allow you to have. That is, if you have less than 2 (like 1) it won't let you use the gun. For the BFG (for example) it's set at 40. Any less than that and you'd end up with negative ammo.

The ammo use, however, is only per pointer. So, in this example, the SSG only uses one shell per shot. But there are two codepointers that have firing frames, so it uses 2 in the end. I'm afraid there's no way to use, say, 2 codepointers for shots and only use 1 ammo.

Why not make new code pointers that shoot without wasting ammo? *nudges randy*

set the ammo type to 0 (I believe anyway, that may be the wrong number but it's the same ammo that the fist and chainsaw use)

[HotWax]

set the ammo type to 0 (I believe anyway, that may be the wrong number but it's the same ammo that the fist and chainsaw use)

Then it won't take ANY ammo.
