local.static.origin = (local.bomberhead.origin + ( 0 0 96 ) )

should be

local.static.origin = local.bomberhead.origin + ( 0 0 96 )

***

local.blastrigger.origin = ( $bomberhead.origin )

should be

local.blastrigger.origin = $bomberhead.origin

**edit**ive updated the script**/edit**

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2005 6:24 am**

local.suicidetrigga.origin = local.suicide_stat_1.origin

shouldn't it's origin = local.suicidestat.origin ? where did the _1 come from?

?tleast

Code: Select all

local.blastriggersetsize

is a typo.
You could add lines of

Code: Select all

iprintln_noloc "Script is now in thread xy"

to see more of what it does

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2005 12:49 pm**

ive updated the code and im testing with the correctins.. thx guys

1. I don't think giving players targetnames is a good idea, especially when you don't use them at all.
2. Glueing the bomb to the player will make it appear at his feet. Use bind or attach instead.

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2005 6:43 pm**

so im assuming you can bind/attatch objects to players heads,arm ect...?

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2005 7:19 pm**

could i attatch it using the player's eyebone?

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2005 7:36 pm**

I think so.

Game classes reference wrote:attach( Entity parent, String tagname, [ Integer use_angles ] )

attach this entity to the parent's legs tag called tagname

So, you could use it like this:

Code: Select all

$entity attach local.player "eyes bone"

** Edit **

Here is one way of attaching something to a certain spot on a player that I use.

local.mover = spawn script_model model "fx/dummy.tik"
local.mover.origin = ( local.player gettagposition "Bip01 Head")
local.mover.angles = local.player.angles
local.mover notsolid
local.mover targetname "spot"
$spot attach local.player "Bip01 Head"

That's exactly what I meant, Grassy, thanks for an example.

after this long time i fanally figure out thr problem... the setsize needs to be:

Code: Select all

(-### -### -###) (+### +### +###)

lol...
oh and whoever made the game code, cant spell attatch
