How can I make an entiety (not a character) recognize if it is being shot? I've looked through the conditions but am having trouble coming up with a way to do this. I'm using V1.09 and Ply's Mod.

Some people say that I'm crazy... And I agree.

the best way would be to use the condition that returns true when the entity was fired upon by a certain weapon.

I know not with what weapons WWIII will be fought but WWIV will be fought with sticks and stones-Albert Einstein

The problem being that I'm not sure how that condition works exactly. Could you explain to me how it does?

Thanks,
Crusader2

That only applies to characters. I've tried to convert this model into a character, but it has had... Problems... Like it doesn't show up.

I believe it's SHOTDAMAGE=X.

SHOTDAMAGE=X is true when damage taken exceeds the value X. All dynamic entities take damage from being shot.

Best.

the documentation on the condition i told you about is in the manual for Ply's Mod Crusader2. I believe it's something like entityShotBy=scifi/tavor 1. where scifi/tavor is the gun the entity is shot by and 1 means it is true only if the entity is shot the specified gun.

Oh sorry, I thought you were talking about a character.

Ok, I tried that out on a modified target.fpi script by Heltor, but it doesn't do what I want it to. Let me explain.

The idea is for a target to show up, and, when you shoot it, a door, named door1, opens. The door uses the doorreomte.fpi script, and the target uses the folloring script.


The only things I've changed are the last 2 lines; the first 4 lines of code are used to make the target appear and hold a position. I've tried converting the target into a character, but it refuses to show up.

I Think turning collision off makes it impervious to shot damage. Try it without coloff.

Oh, that makes sense. I just used Heltor's script and added to it, so I thought messing with coloff would mess it up.

EDIT: Hmm... That still dodn't fix the problem...

shotdamage=x only works on characters. If you use Ply's mod, try this. Obviosuly it'll need to be modified into the script, but you get the idea

I'm sorry, but that's not true. It works just fine on any dynamic entity.

Best.

If you want to shoot a target for a door to open just change the targets destroy script to destroyandactivate, and the name of the door in the if used box.
