Decorate Weapon

[Beetow Brode]

I'm having trouble coding for a weapon thats like a foot that shoots a type of custom plasma and for some reason it doesnt wanna work. if someone could tell me what I'm doing wrong please reply! also the weird names are because I was following a tutorial.

Code: Select all

ACTOR FootBoys: Weapon Replaces Chainsaw 20000 {
	Weapon.SelectionOrder 50
	Weapon.AmmoUse 5
	Weapon.AmmoGive 20
	Weapon.AmmoType "Clip"
	
	Inventory.PickupSound "weapon/getfoot"
	Inventory.PickupMessage "Why? Why someones foot?"
	
	States {
	Spawn:
	FUTF A -1
	Stop
	
	Select:
	FUTF A 1 A_RAISE
	Loop
	
	Deselect:
	FUTF A 1 A_LOWER
	Loop
	
	Ready:
	FUTF A 1 A_WEAPONREADY
	Loop
	
	Fire:
	FUTF A 4
	Goto PoopieFire
	
	PoopieFire:
	FUTR B 1 A_PlaySound("Weapon/firefoot",CHAN_WEAPON, 0.7)
	FUTR B 1 A_Recoil (9)
	FUTR B 5 A_FireCustomMissle("PoopieMissile",0,2,0,-8)
	FUTF A 5
	FUTF A 0 A_ReFire("PoopieFire")
	Goto Ready
	
	}
}

ACTOR PoopieMissile : Actor 20001 {
	+RANDOMIZE
	
	Decal "Scorch"
	Projectile
	
	Radius 6
	Height 8
	Speed 20
	Damage 10
	
	DeathSound "weapons/plasmax"
	
	States {
	Spawn
	FB AB 4 Bright
	Loop
	
	Death:
	FB BCD 4 Bright
	Stop
	}
}

What's the actual problem you're having with the weapon? You neglected to mention that.

[comet1337]

your sprite names for the projetile are only 2 letters, all sprite names need to be 4
stuff with invalid sprites don't spawn IIRC

[Beetow Brode]

Oh shit I forgot to mention that, the actual problem was A_firecustommissle is an invalid parameter. I'm wondering if this is because it has been discontinued and if I can change the parameter to something custom that doesnt have the same parameter that caused it to crash.

[wildweasel]

Even a deprecated feature should still function. Please show us the exact text of the error.

That would be because the word isn't "missle," but "missile."

[Beetow Brode]

"simple spelling mistake"
(laughs in idiot)

Code: Select all

Line58  Spawn
	Line 59  FBXX AB 4 Bright
	Line60   Loop

Now it says for LINE 58 lines must be exactly 4 chars even tho line 58 defines how it spawns.

[Arctangent]

You have to put : after each state label. In this case, Spawn.

Oh my god I think I'm really bad at making weapons now says FUTF frame A is missing rotations. How do I make it so it only has one Sprite for rotation

Name it FUTFA0. That's a zero. I'm assuming you named it FUTFA1 or something similar - you need to either have the full set of 8, or specify angle 0 for it to show for all possible rotations.

Exactly as wildweasel pointed out.

Have a look at the image at https://zdoom.org/wiki/Sprite#Angles and learn about sprite rotations, or in your case no rotation.
