Turret Problems

Hello gurus!

I turn to you for help after four days of struggling with this on my own. I am trying to get the RWS on this vehicle to work:

...but I run into various errors, since configuring addons is really beyond me.

Here is my config.cpp: config.cpp

Here is my model.cfg: model.cfg

The current error I get when trying to start the game is:

Quote[/b] ]File ons_armoured\config.cpp, line 57:

/CfgVehicles/ONS_Nyala.Turrets: Undefined base class 'Turrets'

Now, my understanding is that since I'm inheriting from the HMMVW50 class, I should be able to make my own turret, right?

If you can tell me where I'm going wrong, or even better, fix my problem for me (I mean in the config. You can't educate a fool.) I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

Abs

It says that because you haven't written a Turrets class in your file. In your case it is in some other file so you have to tell it like this

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

class Turrets;

class Foobar : Turrets {

  // something...

};

So do I need to define all the base classes in order to define that as well?

Abs

The ones which Turrets inherits? No, you shouldn't have to.

Basicly if you refer to a class which is not defined in the file or it is defined after where it refered, you should write before using it...

class xyz;

...if teh class name is xyz.

Thanks Aqu! I put it in just before I had the turret defined, and it worked (sorta). I'll keep hacking away at the rest.

So I think I'm learning a bit (okay, that's a lie...) but it seems that I now have two turrets.

I'm so embarrassed even asking this, but can someone tell me how to remove the one that won't fire my weapons?

Pastebin

Thanks in advance.

Try something like this

Quote[/b] ]class CfgVehicles

{

class HMMWV50; // External class reference

class ABSCar1 : HMMWV50

{

scope=protected;

class NewTurret;

class Turrets;

class AnimationSources;

};

class ONS_Nyala: ABSCar1

{

scope=public;

........

driverCanSee = 31;

.......

class Turrets {

class Main1Turret : NewTurret {

body = "main1turret";

gun = "main1gun";

animationSourceBody = "main1turret";

animationSourceGun = "main1gun";

......
