[DECORATE] Multiple Tome of Power types

Post by jazzmaster9 »

I was wondering if there is a way to implement different types of Tome of Power?
The original Tome of Power changes weapons to a "WeaponPowered" actor with the sisterWeapon tag.

Im planning to implement an Ice, Lightning and Fire tome. Using the Ice tome of Power will change the weapons to a WeaponPoweredIce then the fire Tome will change to WeaponPoweredFire etc.

Would appreciate a helping hand since i am a bit stumped. :?
Thanks in advance

Since you can't create custom powerups or alter the behavior of existing ones substantially in DECORATE, then the answer is no.

However, achieving what you want, which is having a weapon behave differently depending on the presence of an item, is possible. See this weapon as an example.
