Automatic Fire problems...

[AgentJonathan 0]

I was wondering if it's possible to get the AI to choose a weapon function that I tell him/her to... Example: I use the JAM3 weapons, and I want the AI to fire Auto, but he fires only one bullet at a time... Help will be appreciated.

You meant you want them to fire in bursts, yes? Unfortunately this is a 'malfunction' inside JAM3, that the AI don't/can't fire in bursts, only a player can, but this is really not a big deal, and I think there's no way to control/change this, only and maybe if you mess with config or something, which is way out of my territory

Hello Agent,Karantan,

That's a bit of a problem I've experienced

myself.

Anyway,with my own addons,I adjust

some settings in their weapon config.

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

class Single

{

ammo="556mm";

multiplier=1

burst=1

displayName="Sopmod M4";

dispersion=0.000200;

sound[]={"\SfWeapons\sounds\m4.wav",1.000000,1};

soundContinuous=0

reloadTime=0.100000;

ffCount=1

recoil="riffleSingle";

autoFire=0

aiRateOfFire=1.000000;

aiRateOfFireDistance=500

useAction=0

useActionTitle="";

};

class fullauto

{

ammo="556mm";

multiplier=1

burst=1

displayName="Sopmod M4 auto";

dispersion=0.001000;

sound[]={"\SfWeapons\sounds\m4.wav",1.000000,1};

soundContinuous=0

reloadTime=0.080000;

ffCount=1

recoil="riffleBurst3";

autoFire=1

aiRateOfFire=.080000;<<<<<<<<

aiRateOfFireDistance=400<<<<<<

useAction=0

useActionTitle="";

};

};

Try adjusting these settings.AIrateOfFire should

change exactly that;AI's rate of fire.AiRateOfFireDistance

should change the distance at which they engage that

particular "mode".

Hopefully that'll get you a little closer to what you

want.

Of course,you could create a variant weapon just

for the AI,having only the mode you want in it.

So they have no choice but to use it.Although I've

never actually tried that.

I'm obviously open to correction on any of the above.

Actually I wan't them to fire Automatically, instead of burst. (Which is AI's default choice.)

Is there no small command to get them to switch from burst to auto?

Welcome Back, Karantan!

If there is,I've never heard of it.

Although it'd be a great feature to be

able to dynamically change

config attributes with a command.

I think the only way is to get in there,and

alter the settings yourself.

Ouch! Guess I better learn C++ soon... If I want it done of course...
