How do you do with Guerrilla? I may have forgot but it was on globals.globals? I wanna add spike grenade without replacing the grenades.

BTW I'm still a newbie. :D

The base Guerilla has restrictions that doesn't allow you to add more than two kinds of grenades. I haven't been in this community for a while, but I think Open Sauce might allow additional grenade types. I'm not sure whether it's a feasible option yet, though; wait for someone to come into this thread and disprove me.

Hey go to: globals folder and open "globals.globals". Go to "Grenades" category and change the value in "mp spawn default".(If you want you can change the limit of grenades in "maximum count" Hope this help

Where's the grenade count? Sorry but please specify the name because I cannot find it.

I'm pretty sure that only changes the amount of grenades you start with; it will not change the number of types of grenades that you have.

That's what I was thinking too...

could you give other grenades to ai and just pick them up?

Really? I saw a video that had a spike grenade in the third spot with the Halo 3 hud. If only I could find it.

Gamma edited the HUD bitmaps himself to do that.

Oh.

I seem to remember Kornman saying somewhere that adding of more than 2 grenade types made saves incompatible or something along those lines - basically a no from an OpenSauce perspective.

a good while ago i asked about how to have 3 weapons, i was told one way was to check a box in the weapons tag that apparently forced the weapon to be picked up.
i never did actually try it as i was told to use the ball tag as reference, but wasn't told specifically what i was looking for. so i forgot about it and modelled.
why would this forcing a weapon pick up not work for extra grenades too
providing what i was told was right?

Thats true, but then surely the extra grenade would work through being a weapon as opposed to the standard grenade dialogue?

This may be considered bumping, but it's only the 15th and the question remains unsolved.

Anyway, many games make grenades in the same category as weapons. Doom 3 is a good example.

To add a new grenade type without removing weapon slots, try this:

If it's a single player map, remove all instances of "player starting profiles" from the scenario. This forces the map to load weapons from the player biped. Be aware, two of the default single player maps require you to recompile the scripts from Zteam's source when you do this.

If it's a multiplayer map, remove all instances of "starting equipment" from the scenario. This also forces the map to load weapons from the player biped.

Then, edit the player biped to add an extra weapon (bipeds can hold up to four weapons).

The extra weapon you add can then be a grenade launcher/thrower weapon with a limit of four rounds.

cheers adolif2, good info right there.

Or you could just check either the "doesn't count towards maximum" flag or the "must be picked up" flag in the weapon tag...

@game user10

There is a major problem with that method.

Using those two options together makes it so that you can't drop, swap, or change the weapon once you pick it up. If you have more than one kind of weapon in the map with those options enabled, then it's pretty darn easy to use up all of your weapon slots without being able to swap the weapons (bipeds are limited to four weapon slots, so you can't just keep picking up more and more weapons).

When it comes to having one or the other set, rather than having both set, using the "doesn't count toward maximum" flag chews up weapon slots, and the "must be picked up" flag forces you to pick up any weapons you walk over.

They may not be *so* bad in single player, but they're very harmful in multiplayer. The oddballs and flags take up weapon slots, so if all four weapon slots are in use, you can't pick up an oddball or flag (they use the "must be picked up" flag, so you can't pick them up the normal way).

Long story short, if you're holding 4 weapons, two normal and two "additional" ones, then you can't pick up the oddballs or flags.

It may be possible to drop the weapons if you get into a vehicle when the "must be readied" option is checked....but why bother?

Cool. I'll try when the dang flying biped fixes.
