This is my script file:

main:
exec global/exploder.scr

thread control_flak

end

//----------------------------------------------------------
//Control the Flak88
//----------------------------------------------------------
control_flak:

iprintln "The Axis control the Flak 88!"

//Fire!
thread flak_attack_loop

end

//-----------------------------------------------
// Flak cannon fire
//-----------------------------------------------

flak_attack_loop:

while ( 1 )
{
local.index = randomint 6

wait local.index

if( local.index <= 0 )
{
local.index++
}

$flak setaimtarget $flak_axis_target[local.index]
$flak waittill ontarget

$flak anim fire

wait 1

waitthread Do_flak_explosion

}

end

//-----------------------------------------------
// Make flak go boom
//-----------------------------------------------
Do_flak_explosion:

local.index = randomint 9
if ( local.index==0 )
local.index++

local.ent = spawn models/projectiles/Berlin_Bombs.tik origin $flak_axis_boom[local.index].origin
local.ent explode

end

This is how it works i make the flak fire on several script orgin (with a targetname) The flak aim on it and fires. On the place i want the explosion i add several script orgins and there the exploded. The explosions worked, but the flak won't aim and fire. All the script orgins will choose random.
Can someone help me?

I think you're using the wrong flak. You need the turretweapon -> flak88

martijn_NL · Post by **martijn_NL** » Sun Jun 22, 2003 11:06 am

No that doesn't work. I think it is the script that makes the error, but i don't know what.

FixedTurret is a Spearhead class I think. You really need a TurretWeapon class instead.

martijn_NL · Post by **martijn_NL** » Sun Jun 22, 2003 11:12 am

I added classname: turretweapon_german_flak88

Is that wrong?

What would you advice to add?

mohaa_rox · Post by **mohaa_rox** » Sun Jun 22, 2003 12:00 pm

don't add ur own classname

martijn_NL · Post by **martijn_NL** » Mon Jun 23, 2003 5:27 pm

No i did not add my own classname, i copied the class name from the turret Flak 88 to this forum.

My question is to make a flak 88 fire just like the spearhead map mp_ardennes_tow. I can make the explosions, but i can't make the flak 88 fire, i looked ay script that is with the map and copied that to my own script ( u see my own script at the first topic). I think that the script is not right. Can any one help me with making the flak 88 fire. The flak need to fire to a script orgin, that is in the sky and not far from the flak 88. The flak is not shooting where the explosion are, the flak is just shooting in the air (fake shooting) But in the map it looks real. So have anyone suggestions for the script. The errors that i had are also on the first topic.

In the gags/T1l2_flak88.scr they do this

//-------------------------------------------------------------------
SetupFlakCannons:
//-------------------------------------------------------------------

$Flak88A.gun = $Flak88A QueryTurretSlotEntity 0
$Flak88B.gun = $Flak88B QueryTurretSlotEntity 0

$Flak88A.gun setaimtarget $Flak88A.target
$Flak88B.gun setaimtarget $Flak88B.target

so that you set the "gun" to the aimtarget by querying the turretslot for the gun entity and haveing it aim at the target .

bdbodger · Post by **bdbodger** » Tue Jun 24, 2003 12:41 pm

I forgot to add that the fire animation is in p_flak88_cannon.tik . The cannon is spawned when you add a p_flak88 to your map so you use $myflak88.gun anim fire after you query the slot as stated in the post above . here is a line from the p_flak88.tik

// Spawn and attach the parts
spawnturret 0 "statweapons/P_flak88_cannon.tik" // Cannon attached to the vehicle

that is why in the editor all you see is the base but in the game you see the whole flak88 . The p_flak88_cannon.tik has no line like this in it so you don't see it in the right click menu .

/*QUAKED turretweapon_german_flak88 (0.0 .0 0.0) (-55 -55 0) (55 55 128)
Flak 88
*/

precisely, u can't do that i think. i tried that before, it never worked.

the problem lies with using the wrong flak, try addon or like bdbodger said, the p_flak88.

martijn_NL · Post by **martijn_NL** » Tue Jun 24, 2003 4:08 pm

My target is a script_orgin with a targetname, how does teh script know where the flak88 need to aim on? Do i need to link the flak to the script_orgin?

Do i need to add this line to my script?:
// Spawn and attach the parts
spawnturret 0 "statweapons/P_flak88_cannon.tik" // Cannon attached to the vehicle

Cause this line doesn't stand in gags/T1l2_flak88.scr.

u needn't, it's already attached in the tiki.

martijn_NL · Post by **martijn_NL** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 7:29 am

$Flak88A.gun = $Flak88A QueryTurretSlotEntity 0
$Flak88B.gun = $Flak88B QueryTurretSlotEntity 0

$Flak88A.gun setaimtarget $Flak88A.target
$Flak88B.gun setaimtarget $Flak88B.target

The script says to aim at a target, but my target is a script_orgin with the targetname flak_target. How does the flak88 aim on it? That is wat i don't understand

bdbodger · Post by **bdbodger** » Wed Jun 25, 2003 2:19 pm

$Flak88A.gun setaimtarget $Flak88A.target

You notice that the setaimtarget is the target of the $flak88A.gun so query the turret slot first

$Flak88A.gun = $Flak88A QueryTurretSlotEntity 0

then you can set the aim target for $flak88A.gun

$Flak88A.gun setaimtarget $flak_target . Which is your script_origin you see the "gun" part of the flak88 must target whatever a script_origin $player etc .

I did it different, but it worked.

At last

here is the script:

level.script = "maps/dm/b.scr"

level waittill spawn

thread flak

end

$flak_turret0 maxyawoffset 20.0
$flak_turret0 pitchcaps "20 10 0"
$flak.collisionent = $flak88_collision
$flak_turret0.collisionent = $flak88_turret_collision
$flak lock

while (1)
{
local.rand = randomint 9

{
case 0:

}

}

}

End
