Scripted a turret but i don't take damage from it

[DjPoppyT]

I've scripted a turret out of badguy1, he rotates towards me and fires but there is no bullet explosion when he shoots at the wall. when he fires on me i don't take damage.

Code: Select all

{

Spawn[()

{
Console(true);

AttributeOrder("health",20,"Die");
FindTargetOrder(250,"Alert","health");
SetFOV(360);
HotsilePlayer(true);
HostileSame(false);
HosileDifferent(false);
SetGroup("Enemy");

}]

Alert[()

{

AnimateStop("hit",0,"");
NewOrder("Attack");
}]


Attack[()

{

RotateToPlayer("idle",160,false,"");
FireProjectile("10mm_shell","BIP01 R FOREARM",0,0,0,"health","");
Delay("stattack",0.5,"");
RestartOrder();

}]

This is most of the script. Is there perhaps a value that must be increased to cause dmg to the player?
Another problem i have is the pawn only takes dmg if i shoot him in the feet. The crosshair only lights if i aim at his feet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I re-compiled and the turret hit me once then i sat as he kept shooting and about 12 shots later i got hit again. Also, I still can't hit anything but his legs, And the c8 and the scattergun don't dmg him.

Figured out the issue with badguys invincible torso. His bounding box is not positioned properly. Direction to a chapter in the pdf or from the manual on altering the bounding box would be much appreciated.

Use the BoxWidth() and BoxHeight() commands in the Spawn order to change the pawn's bounding box width and height.

BoxWidth(float Width); - Set the Pawn actor's bounding box width and depth to Width. The height remains unchanged.

BoxHeight(float Height); - Set the Pawn actor's bounding box height to Height. The width remains unchanged.

WOW. Such a simple solution. I'm still learning the commands, but making progress. Thanks for the help.

turret couldn't hit me because projectile position was set at 0,0,0 I changed it to 5,0,0 and it worked.
