giving weapons to specific player classes (BrutalDoomLite)

[nekostuffing]

so im using BDlite as a base to make and i made two player classes each with its own weapons ...however im having tuble with replacing the original weapons with new ones for example the Heavybolter replaces the chaingun for the BloodAngel player class but the BTheavybolter also replaces the chaingun for the BlackTemplar player class and when i play as a BloodAngel and pick up the a havybolter i end up getting the BTheavybolter that should only be given to the BlackTemplar player class.

This is the BloodAngel Heavybolter

This problem happens to me with all the weapons not just this one but im using this one as an example

[Jarewill]

Both weapons replace the chaingun, but the last weapon to replace it is used.
What you need is to make an inventory item given to the BlackTemplar class to show what to spawn.
Go into DECORATE and add in the following line:

Code: Select all

Actor BlackTemplarToken : Inventory {}

Now for the BlackTemplar's class, add in:

Code: Select all

Player.StartItem "BlackTemplarToken"

After that remove the "replaces Chaingun" from the weapons and make a new actor that will spawn a weapon based on if the class has the token, example below:

Code: Select all

Actor NewChaingun replaces Chaingun{
States {
 Spawn:
 TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BlackTemplarToken",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER1)
 TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItem("Heavybolter")
 Stop
 AltSpawn:
 TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItem("BTHeavybolter")
 Stop
 }
}

Now, it's not perfect in any way, and I doubt it will work in multiplayer, but I hope it helps a bit.

 Stop
 }
}

Yes this helps thank you, just a few questions. Can i use a starting item insted of a token, for example the BlackTemplar starting weapon is BTBolter
can i use it as this:

Code: Select all

TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BTBolter",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER1)
TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItem("Heavybolter")
 Stop
 AltSpawn:
 TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItem("BTHeavybolter")
 Stop

if i cant its no problem but i would like to know if its posible, now if i make a token do i have to name the token? fo example

Code: Select all

Actor BlackTemplarToken : Inventory {"Token1"}

or is that space left blank.

 }

what if he did this instead ? :

Code: Select all

Actor DoomChainGun : Chaingun {}
Actor BAHeavybolter : Heavybolter {}

Actor NewChaingun replaces Chaingun{
States {
 Spawn:
 TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BlackTemplarToken",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER1)
 TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BloodAngelToken",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER1)
 TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItem("DoomChainGun")
 Stop
 AltSpawnBT:
 TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItem("BTHeavybolter")
 Stop
 AltSpawnBA:
 TNT1 A 0 A_SpawnItem("BAHeavybolter")
 Stop
 }
}

then everyone else than black templars and blood angels, will get the regular chaingun -but the pointer AAPTR_PLAYER1 needs to be something more generic so that all players can use it... hmm


there is always playernumber

https://zdoom.org/wiki/PlayerNumber


then we could do smth like this:

I am not sure if the below is actually valid decorate code and ... is just to indicate that the if blocks must be made for players 1 to 8

Code: Select all

if (PlayerNumber() = 1)
{
 TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BlackTemplarToken",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER1)
 TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BloodAngelToken",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER1)
}
...
if (PlayerNumber() = 8)
{
 TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BlackTemplarToken",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER8)
 TNT1 A 0 NoDelay A_JumpIfInventory("BloodAngelToken",1,"AltSpawn",AAPTR_PLAYER8)
}

assuming the max amount of players equals 8

[Void Weaver]

@CBM: it's absolutely noncence: PlayerNumber - only for ACS, and your syntax is wrong.

All of that you needed there is a some CustomInventory wrapper, without any tokens and ugly PLAYER# pointers:

Code: Select all

Actor NewChaingun : CustomInventory replaces Chaingun
{
States
{
Spawn:
MGUN A -1

Pickup:
TNT1 A 0 A_JumpIf(CheckClass("BlackTemplar"),2)
TNT1 A 0 A_GiveInventory("Heavybolter")
Stop
TNT1 A 0 A_GiveInventory("BTHeavybolter")
Stop
}
}

[Jarewill]

Can i use a starting item insted of a token

You sure can! The token is just an inventory item that does nothing outside of being a check of a player class.
Though keep in mind that weapons can be dropped if they don't have the "+INVENTORY.UNDROPPABLE" flag.

do i have to name the token?

Nope. That bracket is needed to input flags, properties, states, etc. even if no properties are present in the actor, so it needs to be kept blank

what if he did this instead ?

Apologies! I assumed that there will only be two player classes and didn't think of regular doomguy being kept in.

All of that you needed there is a some CustomInventory wrapper, without any tokens and ugly PLAYER# pointers

Though, both weapons seem to have a different pickup lines and I don't think A_GiveInventory will print out the message of each weapon.

[Void Weaver]

Items received via A_GiveInventory wouldn't print out any pickup messages at all.
It should be specified by A_Log customized message for both pickup variants.

Ofc there is no any restrictions to use A_SpawnItemEx instead.

[Jarewill]

Hmmm, didn't know that was a possible function.
In that case, your method works better and it's multiplayer-friendly.
Though small question, what if one wants different pickup sprites for each weapon?
Edit: Actually nevermind, I'm just being dumb right now >_>

[Void Weaver]

Edit: Actually nevermind, I'm just being dumb right now >_>

Actually that's a correct question, and no - this way isn't supposed to render different spawn sprites before picking up.
Honestly I don't see any way to render\spawn item(s) with different spawn sprites at the same randomspawner\spawn_spot replacement, which are depends on the user's class and takes into account presence of more than 1 playerclass in game. :\ I guess it's impossible at all, even for zscript.

TNT1 A 0 A_GiveInventory("Heavybolter")
Stop
TNT1 A 0 A_GiveInventory("BTHeavybolter")
Stop
}
}

yearh.. I was not at all sure about the syntax in the last bit there

what about this:

Code: Select all

Actor NewChaingun replaces Chaingun
{
States
{
Spawn:
TNT1 A 0  A_Look
loop
idle:
TNT1 A 0  A_Look
loop
See:
TNT1 A 0 A_JumpIf(CheckClass("BlackTemplar"),"BT")
TNT1 A 1 A_SpawnItem("Heavybolter")
TNT1 A 1000 // spawn cooldown
goto idle
BT:
TNT1 A 1 A_SpawnItem("BTHeavybolter")
TNT1 A 1000 // spawn cooldown
goto idle
}
}

wouldnt this work in multiplayer, display custom sprites (since the spawner itself has no sprites) AND display pickup message ?

or if it should only spawn once:

Code: Select all

Actor NewChaingun replaces Chaingun
{
States
{
Spawn:
TNT1 A 0  A_Look
loop
See:
TNT1 A 0 A_JumpIf(CheckClass("BlackTemplar"),"BT")
TNT1 A 1 A_SpawnItem("Heavybolter")
stop
BT:
TNT1 A 1 A_SpawnItem("BTHeavybolter")
stop
}
}

[Void Weaver]

Your variants are pointless because:
a) CheckClass("BlackTemplar") wouldn't work without pointing pointer different from AAPTR_DEFAULT, and therefore:
b) the NewChaingun wouldn't spawn any weapon at all;
c) even if you define CheckClass("BlackTemplar",AAPTR_PLAYER1) the NewChaingun will spawn only 1 type of weapon, depends on which player class will be detected in first time, so no multiplayer compatible at all.

So, the CustomInventory wrappers are still needed for mplayer compatibility.
I guess that more smooth and smart solution would be next:

Code: Select all

Actor NewChaingun replaces Chaingun //It replaces all Chaingun spawn spots and immediately spawn a 2 CInventory wrappers
{
States
{
Spawn:

Wow! i didnt think i would get so many responses, THANKS GUYS!
I used the token method for now but i dont know if it will work when i add more player classes, i will try Void Weaver's method if it dosnt. However im not intrested in multiplayer at the moment only single player, i will need a multiplayer method in the future, but it will be a long time until then and it wont be exactly the same mod but a deathmatch version that will be especificaly for multiplayer only, but it will be a long time until i get working on that so i will focus on single player right now.

very interesting indeed

it will allow the exactly one blood angel player and the exactly one black templar player to both get a weapon if I am not mistaken?

thats the cool thing about this forum!

this technique for spawning different weapons for different playerclasses is something I will definetly try out on my own as well

I am looking forward to hearing more about your mod as I am also a huge WH40K fan!

Wow! i didnt think i would get so many responses, THANKS GUYS!
I used the token method for now but i dont know if it will work when i add more player classes, i will try Void Weaver's method if it dosnt. However im not intrested in multiplayer at the moment only single player, i will need a multiplayer method in the future, but it will be a long time until then and it wont be exactly the same mod but a deathmatch version that will be especificaly for multiplayer only, but it will be a long time until i get working on that so i will focus on single player right now.

Glad to help. ^_^
But if you haven't interested in mplayer comptibility then Jarewill's solution or any of mine will be fit for your goal.

it will allow the exactly one blood angel player and the exactly one black templar player to both get a weapon if I am not mistaken?

Yep, that is.
