No GetPlayerProperty? How to check if the player is frozen?

[GrayFace]

Is there a way to check if the player is frozen? Preferably in ACS.
Bizarrely there's SetPlayerProperty, but no GetPlayerProperty.

Well there is GetActorProperty but I don't think it can check to see if you are frozen. If you want that you have to modify the 'Ice' state. Here is the Ettin's 'Ice' state from the wiki:

Code: Select all

  Ice:
    ETTN R 5 A_FreezeDeath
    ETTN R 1 A_FreezeDeathChunks
    Wait

You could easily slip in a new line to run an ACS script or whatever.

I think OP is referring to PROP_FROZEN from SetPlayerProperty, not anything to do with FreezeDeath.

GrayFace, you might need to track whether the player is frozen via a global variable instead.

If you don't mind a little ZScript, you can also use ScriptCall like this:

Code: Select all

//In ZScript
Class FreezeChecker{
	Static bool CheckFreeze(Actor activator){
		If(!activator||!activator.player){Return false;}
		Return activator.player.cheats & CF_FROZEN;
	}
}

//In ACS
ScriptCall("FreezeChecker","CheckFreeze")
