[?] Repair & reload boats?

[badmojo420]

Is there any way to enable the vehicle depot to repair and rearm the RHIB? No matter how close you get, it doesn't work.

[Zeno]

yes it would be nice because we are going to need it for the cb90

Well if you look at the code for the supply object of the depo you can see why:

Code: Select all

ObjectTemplate.create SupplyObject pr_supply_depot
ObjectTemplate.floaterMod 0
ObjectTemplate.hasMobilePhysics 0
ObjectTemplate.radius 5
ObjectTemplate.workOnSoldiers 1
ObjectTemplate.workOnVehicles 1
ObjectTemplate.healSpeed 2
ObjectTemplate.refillAmmoSpeed 4
[b]ObjectTemplate.addVehicleType 0[/b]
ObjectTemplate.teamFromClosestCP 1

Note the bit in bold.

Now if we look at my Mapping Audit tut, down in the Step 5: Combat Zones sections I list all the vehicle groups.

https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f189-m ... audit.html

Rhino;431800'] This box controls what kind of vehicle is effected by the combat zone. This can be used for crating an extra large, seprate combat zone around the base combat zone only for jets, to give them a much larger area to fly in and when you hop into a jet, you can still see the base combat zone, but the area between the base and the jet combat zone will be 1/2 transparent. When hand coding this the values are:
VehicleType "0" = Land
VehicleType "1" = Sea
VehicleType "2" = Planes
VehicleType "3" = Choppers
VehicleType "4" = All
VehicleType "5" = Planes/Choppers

Now if you look back at the supply object code above, you will note that in bold I have highlighted the line "ObjectTemplate.addVehicleType 0", where from the list in my audit tut, we can see that 0 = Land Vehicles only.

This is why the vehicle depo is not reloading any boats.

In order to get it to reload boats, you could change 0 to 1 but then it wouldn't reload any land vehicles, or you could change it to 4 but then it would also reload a chopper hovering next to it, or you could do this:

Code: Select all

ObjectTemplate.create SupplyObject pr_supply_depot
ObjectTemplate.floaterMod 0
ObjectTemplate.hasMobilePhysics 0
ObjectTemplate.radius 5
ObjectTemplate.workOnSoldiers 1
ObjectTemplate.workOnVehicles 1
ObjectTemplate.healSpeed 2
ObjectTemplate.refillAmmoSpeed 4
[b]ObjectTemplate.addVehicleType 0[/b]
[b]ObjectTemplate.addVehicleType 1[/b]
ObjectTemplate.teamFromClosestCP 1

Which would then mean it would reload both land vehicles and boats.

But if I was you I would simply make a new supply object, in fact here is one I made just the other day for my BF Pirates 2 map so the boats could reload in the bay at there main bases since they couldn't.


ship_supplyobject.con

Code: Select all

GeometryTemplate.create StaticMesh ship_supplyobject
CollisionManager.createTemplate ship_supplyobject

ObjectTemplate.create Bundle ship_supplyobject
ObjectTemplate.saveInSeparateFile 1
ObjectTemplate.creator EDMUND:Edmund_Fovargue

include ship_supplyobject.tweak

This object is a simple dummy object, has no mesh, no collisions and all it has is a supply object so you can put it anywhere and anything in 150m of it (thou you will probably want to lower the radius etc) that is a boat will reload/rearm from it.

super job rhino! i might contact you later about using this for my map

[Rhino]

you dont need my permission to use it, if you did I wouldn't post up all the code to it. Its really very simple code...

[H.sta]

Zeno is a very simple person aswell... Rhino to the rescue again!

[Zeno]

Zeno is a very simple person aswell!

i dont know to take that as a insult or positive

[badmojo420]

Thanks Rhino, exactly what I needed.
