[minimod][v0.7.3] Gearbox - weapon/inventory handling

[mamaluigisbagel]

I noticed sometimes when a monster is moving when you open gearbox (with "Freeze enemies & player enabled) enemies can get stuck moving in the direction they were going when you opened gearbox until you close it. I can't tell if this is normal or a side effect of me running Corruption Cards, but might be worth mentioning.

Pretty good mod and it works perfectly with hellrider on my phone!

Changing the first line of the keyconf from Alias +gb_toggle_weapon_menu "event gb_toggle_weapon_menu"
to Alias +gb_toggle_weapon_menu "netevent gb_prev_weapon; wait 1; event gb_toggle_weapon_menu" lets you select last weapon on press and open wheel on hold, similar to Doom Eternal's weapon wheel.

Is it ok to modify and distribute this with mods? I made a custom version to work like Doom Eternal's weapon wheel to go with EOA/KET, was just wondering how permissions go with that, thanks in advance

Yeah, at least that's what copying file says in the source code.

Yes, it's ok to modify and distribute Gearbox by terms of GPLv3 license.

That said, if the changes are not too invasive, it would be great to incorporate them to the base Gearbox.

I'll try them, hold on

It works, kind of, the weapon does swap like DE but the weapon wheel still pops up on the screen

The only changes I really made were removing the graphic for the pointer and adding this "+gb_toggle_weapon_menu "netevent gb_prev_weapon; wait 1; event gb_toggle_weapon_menu"" to combine the binds to one key, it's a bit weird so idk if you want to add it, it also isn't super compatible with older versions of gzdoom

One thing I would like to see from Gearbox is the following input method:

1) Quick-tap of inventory wheel button: use currently-selected item
2) If held for longer than a specified (configurable) duration, bring up the wheel without using an item

This sort of thing would greatly benefit not just gamepad users on desktops, but also gamepad users on Delta Touch.

Just had this crash when going from Episode 1 to Episode 2 using WadSmoosh. I don't know if this is actually the fault of gearbox, but figured I'd post it here since it shows its name in the error.

Thanks for reporting! Added a null check. Please check this build: https://github.com/mmaulwurff/gearbox/a ... master.zip

Seems to work now, thanks! If I find anything else, I'll make sure to edit this post.

[mamaluigisbagel]

Sorry for double post, but was curious about something. I've noticed if you're using a weapon on a slot by itself (ie anything but the shotguns and melee in Doom 2) and then hit the same button for the weapon you are holding, it will bring up gearbox. Is there a way to disable this, is it a bug, or something else?

[m8f]

Bug. Thanks for reporting! Fixed in this build.

[mamaluigisbagel]

Thanks for the quick fix, however this seemed to introduce a new and similar bug. If I remember right, with "Slot keys select if weapon is only one in slot" is on, and you have, again, two shotguns, holding one would switch to the next instantly as long as there's only two in that slot. Now as long as you have another weapon in the slot, even if its only one other weapon, it will ALWAYS bring up gearbox. I can't tell if I'm just remembering wrong or if this is a new bug.

Reproduce:

• In vanilla Doom 2, make sure you have both the Shotgun and Super Shotgun.
• Switch to one of the Shotguns using the slot 3 key.
• Press the same slot 3 key again, it should bring up gearbox instead of switching to the other shotgun instantly.
