make resurrected monsters solid

[chaingunner_hell]

hi, i have been making a weapon that gives the player the possibility to resurrect monsters when they are dead (just like an archvile). and i was able to get this working.
but when i change the state label of the monster to the raise label, the player can pass through the player.

Code: Select all

action void A_resurrect(){
 ThinkerIterator ti = ThinkerIterator.Create("Actor");
			Actor a;
			while ( a = Actor(ti.Next()) )
			{
			
				if ( !IsVisible(a,false)
					|| (a is 'PlayerPawn')
					|| !a.bISMONSTER || (a.health > 0)
					|| (Distance3D(a) > 150));				
					else break;
			}
			
			if(a==null)return;
			a.bFRIENDLY=1;
			a.bSHOOTABLE=1;
			a.bSOLID=1;
			a.bCANPASS=1;
			a.bCANPUSHWALLS=1;
			a.bCOUNTKILL=1;
			a.bISMONSTER=1;
			a.bACTIVATEMCROSS=1;
			a.bCANUSEWALLS=1;
			a.health=a.spawnhealth();
			if((a is "Cyberdemon") || (a is "SpiderMasterMind") || (a is "Archvile"))a.A_Remove(AAPTR_DEFAULT);
			else a.setstatelabel("Raise");
			//A_LogInt(a.radius);

			
 }

So what does the monster is able to be not solid when it dies (and still have its solid flag set)
here is my mod

It's because your code is incomplete and flat out wrong. You are not restoring everything that's needed and setting the flags to defaults that may not be appropriate. Better use the Actor.Revive function which sets everything to what is needed.

thanks, now i got it working. there was just a tiny problem that was the the height of the resurrected actor was 1/4 of the original (and that was obviously caused by DeathHeight default property)
and so this is what works for me

Code: Select all

a.Revive(); a.bFRIENDLY=1; a.height*=4; a.setstatelabel("Raise");
