ACE 2 Throw & Put config

[Dragonia 0]

I've been wondering, how does the ACE2 handle throwables (hand grenades etc.) and puttables (mines & c4 etc.)?

I searched through the configs and found out that they use their own user actions with conditions for the put commands (if the player has a certain magazine, the put action is available). The action runs a script that handles the actual creation of the charge etc. Is there more to this? If not, good.

My main problem however are the throwables. Simply adding my own class to the magazines of the throw weapon doesn't seem to cut it. Even if I have my own grenade in my inventory, I cannot select it with the weapon switch. It just doesn't show on the upper right menu.

I wonder if this has something to do with their own hand grenade system where you can choose the throwing style etc. Are the approved throwables listed in some config I don't know about or am I missing something else?

Thank you for your answers,

I think they have a new "throw" weapons called something along the lines of "ACE_Throw" (who'd have guessed that, eh?), that handles all of the new grenades, and also uses the "Default" grenades as well. I might be wrong, but I seem to remember seeing references to it somewhere, I'll have a dig around and see if I can find it.

I have the ACE2 full config file which I downloaded from their site and there appears to be no other throw weapon than the default one. It also has the ACE grenade classes in it. They are also using the default put weapon. Even the inheritance path is regular, for example:

Throw : GrenadeLauncher : Default

and

ACE_TeargasMuzzle : ThrowMuzzle : GrenadeLauncher : Default

I'm baffled :confused:

I looked at this long ago, hoping to document it for ACE and could not fathom the reasons or methods behind it either.

You could try posting a ticket requesting information from them and hope they are in a generous mood.

Thanks.

I'll try if I can get some more information that way.
