i made this new weapon, and it will have no fire power .. but i wanna make it so if anyone crosshairs you they will die instantly .. any ideas on how this can be done? i know im asking much here whaha, but if you know or think of some posible way .. let me know // thanks

I'm pretty sure it can be done. Actually all you'd have to do is pretty much mimic the cheat_medusa cheat, but I'm not really the one who does stuff with weapons, I mostly a mapper or I will occasionally rip maps mod them in sapien (barely mod, just when I'm extremely bored).

Scripting pseudocode:

If player is holding weapon
Set boolean x true
Sleep until player isn't holding weapon
Set boolean x false

While x is true
If players (except the player holding weapon) can see player
Kill enemy player

thanks xD

now need to find someone who does scripts, i got no time to learn it myself

I could, but I lack motivation, not to mention time. I'll probably come back to this sometime later.

(global object_definition " < path of the medusa weapon and its name > ")

(global boolean x)

(script continuous settingx
(if ( = (unit_has_weapon_readied " < medusa weapon name > ") 1)
(begin
(set x 1)
(sleep_until ( = (unit_has_weapon_readied " < medusa weapon name > ") 0))
(set x 0)
)
)
)

(script continuous weapon_medusa
(sleep_until (= x 1))
( < an unknown script gamma can write for me > )
(sleep_until (= x0))
( < the opposite of the unknown script gamma can write for me > )
)

Sorry, I'm busy correcting my script for the Crysis shield.

@ Sinow: Check your PMs. I've sent you my completed shield script, for your reference.

I didn't need a script, I got that down. Thing is, I changed a string and somehow I effed it up.

Sounds like the crosshair only, not whenever you can see them.

I suppose you could make a weapon that shoots out a constant projectile, like an invisible, 1hitKO sentinel beam.

thanks :), ill try to get it working

ye death wehn crosshaired, dying from only having someone in sight is too radical dont you think xD
