Player start take weapons integers.

[DiEgo]

anyone know the integer to take ALL weapons away at the player start? Im making a mappack of small minigame type maps, and it is crucial to take away weapons after every level. so anyone know what integer takes away all weapons, so i dont have to go through alot of numbers?

You can't do it solely in the editor, unfortunately.:(

[Louva-Deus]

you can put like 99999999999999999 and it'll take everything away cept 1 colt and knife. you have to make some code changes to remove those.

Try 16380 for Second Encounter, 74239 for First Encounter.

Thanks, IIC. Those numbers sound right.

Why cant they just make checkboxes? Like, check the Tommygun box if you want the player to start with the tommygun.. wouldnt that be simpler?

you wouldnt happen to know all the combinations for this?

That field represents a bitmask in the code. If you remember your basic binary numbering system, a bit field is split up like this:

128  64  32  16   8   4   2   1
------------------------------------
 1     1    1   1    1   1   1   1

each bit starting from the right represents a weapon. 1 = knife, 2 = colt, 4 = shotgun.

So if you wanted to give/take the shotgun it would be 4 + 2 + 1 = 7.

Correct me if I'm wrong

sounds good and theres more on it in the item-by-item help file. thanks

1 = knife
2 = colt
4 = double colt
8 = shotgun

I believe the new IbI has the complete list.

The newest item-by-item has all the weapon integers and also includes how to combine them to make certain combinations of giving/taking.

I can't seem to get this to work would someone please tell the exact GIVE and TAKE values for FE and SE.

Can it be done without coding?

[DiEgo]

It requires no coding at all...


Give weapons

-ulong mask. Combination of bits representing weapons. Players have these weapons when they are spawned at the player marker. The weapons mask is actually a bit field, with each weapon having one bit: The knife is 1, the Colt is 2, the Double Colt is 4, the Shotgun is 8, Double Shotgun is 16, the Tommygun is 32, the Minigun is 64, the Rocket Launcher is 128, the Grenades Launcher is 256, the Laser Rifle is

8192, and the Iron Cannon is 32768. If you want the player to gain or lose specific weapons, simply add the numbers; for example, a double colt and shotgun is 4+8=12. On the First Encounter, the Knife and Colt are always given to the player.



pulled directly from the item by item. In the player start give weapons, if you want the player to start with the Double shotgun and 2 colts, you put 20 in the give weapons catagory of the player marker entity. (double colt = 4, double barrel = 16... 16+4=20.) Taking weapons is the same principle.

Don't know SS:SE... don't have it yet :(

Doesn't seem to work. Can't get player to not have knife and colt.

If you can do this let me know. Don't seem like it can be done (starting player with no weapons) unless I'm being :dork:

[DarkSpotInTheCorner]

Removing colt and knife is NOT possible without coding. ;)

Same goes for Second Encounter.
