Weapon trigger help

Post by halo3o3 »

Wht I am trying to do is make a weapon with two different triggers shoot the first trigger, while charging up for the second. Take the pp, when you are charging it, it is shooting uncharged bolts up until the point where you release the charged bolt. Is this something that can be done, or is it just practically impossible without CE, because I can't really go in to CE with this 1 for certain reasons. 8)

I believe you would need CE and Guirilla and so forth to do this, at least that's what I think, I don't do much CE work...

Well, you could ummm, maybe you could duplicate the PP then change the models and stuffs to your weapon and just change the second projectile?

I'd say your best bet is this:

It may take some messing around so you have to actually charge it to shoot (Swap the charged for regular) and then the secondary fire (nade) could be regular shot and the right trigger (Fire) could be your charged shot.

That should work.

Also, try Conure's new app Chunk Cloner to see if it adds the option to other guns.

I actually tried that before but was doing something else and got a different effect lol

I see where you are coming from, but wht I want to do make the first trigger shoot while you are charging, for instance the splazor in h3, when you charge it, there is a pointer, almost like it is shooting out a proj. while charging, I know this was done in CE, and with enough tinkering I strongly believe it can be accomplished[/quote]

So you want to be able to say hold down the trigger and it will rapidly fire while charging? My way allows you to charge with one and shoot with the other. (Yes the charge stays) I think I know what you want though. I'm not sure if its possible but I'll look into it.

P.S. Don't swap the projectiles. Keep them the same and give them BOTH a charge time, the same charge time that is. That's how I got it to work.
