Custom Satchel Charges

[EricJ]

I've been trying to make up a Breaching charge for a weapons pack, as well as one for the XDF weapons pack. Problem is, I get it configged right (i.e. it shows up how it's supposed to, but when I try to place it on the ground, it doesn't work:

CfgAmmo:

class M38Charge: PipeBomb
{
hit=600;indirectHit=1;indirectHitRange=1;
minRange=1;minRangeProbab=0.30;
midRange=2;midRangeProbab=0.55;
maxRange=4;maxRangeProbab=0.00;
cost=40;
model=satchel.p3d;
visibleFire=2;
audibleFire=0.25;
visibleFireTime=0;
picture="\M4-16C\inv\m16Mag.paa";
};

CfgWeapons:


class M38A1 : Default
{
//--
scopeWeapon = private;
scopeMagazine = public;

enableAttack = true;

valueMagazine = 5;

magazineType = 1 * WeaponSlotItem;
ammo=M38Charge;
displayName=Wall Breaching Charge;
displayNameMagazine=Wall Breaching Charge;
shortNameMagazine=Breaching Charge;

count=1;
initSpeed=0;
maxLeadSpeed=0;

showEmpty = false;

useAction = true;
useActionTitle = Set Breaching Charge;

sound[]={People\gravel_L,db-70,1};
magazines[] = {this};
/*
magazines[] = {this};
modes[] = {this, TouchOff};
class TouchOff : Default
{
ammo = "";
displayName="Touch Off";
reloadTime=0.0;
sound[]={,0,1};
magazines[] = {};

useAction = true;
useActionTitle = "Touch Off Breaching Charge(s)";
};
*/
};

Like I said, there's no errors, just it won't place it on the ground so I can use it.

check WGL code - should be in wgl_wep_config

Thanks, could you just send the config rather than me having to download 116MB to look at a vastly smaller file?

I fear that OFP doesn't like entirely new weapon class. As it must be done with the throw and several kind of grenades.

First, as it concerns satchel charge, instead of basing it on default class, base it on the pipebomb class.

Second, a satchel can be used if the soldier has the weapon "Put". Inside the "Put" weapon, your weapon can't be defined as possible magazine for this weapon :

Quote[/b] ]
class Put : Default
{
//--
scopeWeapon = protected;
scopeMagazine = private;

valueWeapon = 0;

weaponType = WeaponNoSlot;
displayName=$STR_DN_PUT;
sound[]={,db-70,1};
reloadSound[]={,db-70,1};

canLock=LockNo;
enableAttack=false;
optics = false;
primary=false;
showEmpty = false;

magazines[] = {TimeBomb, PipeBomb, Mine, MineE};

canDrop = false;
};

So you should create a weapon as Put2 for exemple :

Quote[/b] ]
class Put : Default{};
class Put2 : Put
{
//--
scopeWeapon = protected;
scopeMagazine = private;

valueWeapon = 0;

weaponType = WeaponNoSlot;
displayName=$STR_DN_PUT;
sound[]={,db-70,1};
reloadSound[]={,db-70,1};

canLock=LockNo;
enableAttack=false;
optics = false;
primary=false;
showEmpty = false;

magazines[] = {"TimeBomb","PipeBomb","M38A1","Mine","MineE"};

canDrop = false;
};

This way, your soldier should be able to use all OFP satchels, mine, and your weapon...

Well I hope so

Thanks , then I'm assuming my actual weapon's classname should be, and this is what I did:

Quote[/b] ]

class cfgWeapons
{
class Default {};
class MGun: Default {};
class Riffle: MGun {};
class M16: Riffle {};
class M4 : Riffle{};
class AK47: Riffle {};
class AK74: Riffle {};
class MachineGun7_6: MGun {};
class MachineGun7_6Manual: MachineGun7_6 {};
class Put: Default {};


class Put2 : Put
{
//--
scopeWeapon = protected;
scopeMagazine = private;

valueWeapon = 0;

weaponType = WeaponNoSlot;
displayName=$STR_DN_PUT;
sound[]={,db-70,1};
reloadSound[]={,db-70,1};

canLock=LockNo;
enableAttack=false;
optics = false;
primary=false;
showEmpty = false;

magazines[] = {"TimeBomb","PipeBomb","M38A1","Mine","MineE&
amp;
quot;};

canDrop = false;
};

class Pipebomb: Put2{};

class M38A1 : Pipebomb
{
//--
scopeWeapon = private;
scopeMagazine = public;

enableAttack = true;

valueMagazine = 5;

magazineType = 1 * WeaponSlotItem;
ammo=M38Charge;
displayName=Wall Breaching Charge;
displayNameMagazine=Wall Breaching Charge;
shortNameMagazine=Breaching Charge;

count=1;
initSpeed=0;
maxLeadSpeed=0;

showEmpty = false;

useAction = true;
useActionTitle = Set Breaching Charge;

sound[]={People\gravel_L,db-70,1};
magazines[] = {this};
/*
magazines[] = {this};
modes[] = {this, TouchOff};
class TouchOff : Default
{
ammo = "";
displayName="Touch Off";
reloadTime=0.0;
sound[]={,0,1};
magazines[] = {};

useAction = true;
useActionTitle = "Touch Off Breaching Charge(s)";
};
*/
};

Most important, does it work ?

Don't forget to add ind your soldier's configVehicle :

weapons[]={M16, Put2, DefaultManWeapons};
or
weapons[]={M16, Throw, Put2};
