Multiple Weaponset upgrades.

Jim-Bob · 07-19-2003, 01:03 PM

Is it possible to have a unit with more thatn 1 weaponset upgrade?

I have tried setting up 3 weapon sets using the Conditions = command, but only the firts upgrade will affect it.

I have also tried using simalar code to the bombtruck with the TriggeredBy = and StartsActive =

but unfortunately I cant seem to get it to work.

Or would I have to do one weapon set upgrade to work with the units "first" weapon, the do an ObjectCreation to get the other weapon?

It may sound odd, but with my mod you can pick 2 weapon upgrades for each unit, I can do this by using weaponset upgrade.... (now that i think of it i probably cant do it that way either

)

ALso I have been having problems with ObjectCreation, I can get a unit to have 2 drone upgrades perfectly fine, but the problem lies in the fact when i try to create an OCL that is attached to the unit (like the overlord upgrades) I can only create 1, I have tried many things to get it to build 2 (well the upgrade itself doe build, it just wont create the new peice

)

any help is much appreciated.

well part of that will be included in the mod, but for the weapons each unit has 4 coices (anti air, anti building, anti tank, anti infantry) what i ma trying to do is set it up so the can pick 2 of them.

thats where the problem lies, is how to configure the code so it can be done properly..

JB, can you explain a bit better? Most ppl could help you if we could understand what your trying to do.

What weaponset? YOu mean when you upgrade it will change it's weapon? If that's your Q then you can't add 2 or more weaponset upgrade just one.

ok what i mean by upgrades is the way an overlord tank builds upgrades.
you build it and its permanent, but you can build 2 instead of 1.

thats what the problem is. I cant figure out how to get it to work that way. Using OCL's like the overlord does, i can only get the unit to build one, when i try to build the second, it costs the right amount, makes all the proper sounds, but the second OCL just doesnt show up, or do anything

but cold blooded kinda killed that idea as i would need more than one weaponset upgrade, then use an OCL like the overlord does.

If any one understands what i am trying to do and has any ideas at all, please post, as with out this feature, my mod has no gimmic...
