hey ive got a question how would i make a weapon switch to third person when you pick
it up

1) You could script force them into a vehicle (best option here)
2) You could use script (camera_set_dead ) [the cam that swivels around em when someone dies in SP]
3) You could make a AI follow the person and script (camera_set_first_person ) to attach teh camera to the AI following them.

yeah im not to adept when it comes to scripting but that with first option would it use the hud of the vehicle?

1.) I assume you'd simply set the vehicle to the same model as your standard Cyborg, and have no animation to entering the vehicle, just an instant combination of the "vehicle" and player, so that you appear the same. I don't know if you can do invisible vehicles or not.. wait... Nevermind. h4x hog, just remembered.

2.) To take it out, would you put (camera_set_alive)? Lolol.

3.) It wouldn't be a very good angle, and if you move, the AI won't be following them perfectly, so you may not get the right view you're hoping for... 1 is definitely the best option.

also if ur a vehicle, u could run over people

....... You don't know Kirby, do you?

It would be like an invisible sentinel or something.

Actually, no. When a vehicle is going the same speed as a person, it does no damage. It just sorta pushes them around...

Unless the vehicle moves faster than standard Cyborg movement, it'll be safe.

but stiil, that would be stupid to move people around, and wat if u jump? and squish the person u jump onto

i believe that there is something that can be checked or unchecked in Geurilla that determines first person or third.

i was looking for that and only vehicles have those box, but i noticed that if you get killed in halo as a game is ending you will have a tempory 3rd person veiw ,it lasts for a split second
