@ranger
Your answer for 6 is incorrect, i believe you misread the question :P

The way bungie did it in A10 was by making Keys play an animation of giving you the pistol, then deleting it, then sleeping the script until you entered a trigger volume then using the player add equipment command:

(player_add_equipment (unit (list_get (players) 0)) Key's_favorite_pistol true)

It's rather impractical though. It's possible, but you don't want to have to create portable trigger volumes for every AI actor and swap weapons for each one.

thanks (all)

Pardon?

I've explained them many times, I probably have more indepth discriptions in my older posts, if this explanation isn't good enough, search portable under my username.

(script continuous bipedz
(ai_look_at_object biped1 biped2)
(ai_look_at_object biped2 biped1)
(ai_attach biped1 volume-encounter)
(ai_attach biped2 volume-encounter)
(objects_attach something "biped1" biped1 "head")
(objects_attach something "biped2" biped2 "head")
)

This is a setup loop to force them to behave correctly. You can toss in as many extra AI manipulating things to make them behave as much as you want.

(and (objects_can_see_object biped1 somethingelse 45) 
     (objects_can_see_object biped2 somethingelse 45))

toss this in as your if or sleep_until instead of the volume test.


The way this works, is both are looking at each other by the setup script, so if your within 45 degrees (stated in second script) of both of their looking areas, it returns true (as if you where in a volume trigger in the specified location)

Ah, creative.

I was speaking of literal trigger volumes, I thought he was suggesting you could treat them as objects (if only...).
