Hi all!
I’m working on modding some weapons and have everything working but there is a small glitch I was hoping someone may know how to resolve.
Basically I have 2 new weapons, a pistol and a rifle. I also made 2 new ammo’s. Both weapons will use both ammo. I have it working fine for the most part, I can drag either ammo type onto to either weapon and it works. The issue is strange, If they both are using the same ammo everything is golden. Once I put the other ammo type onto either of the guns is when it gets weird. Lets say I have the pistol in slot 2 and rifle in slot 3. If I equip the pistol with 2nd ammo and hit hotbar slot 2, I may or may not get the pistol, I may get the rifle instead. Sometimes both hotbar buttons will produce the same weapon (2 pistols or 2 rifles) other times they will be opposite (hit 2 for pistol get rifle, hit 3 for rifle get pistol) and every once in awhile it will work as it should. Until I change ammo again. Once I have both using the same ammo, it goes back to normal.
I’m guessing it has something to do with the drag onto classes but not sure where I went wrong since it is working for the most part. I know it can work since you can have a regular bow, compound and a crossbow all with different yet interchangeable ammo. One thing I did notice is that when i spawn one of my new weapons in the editor, it comes with a loaded clip but does not show what ammo it has loaded (the little icon in corner) where a bow or crossbow does.
Help me please!
Thanks,
P0k3 out!
EDIT: So I did a little more testing in the editor and I spawned in just the rifle and the secondary ammo. I fired a few rounds from the default ammo it spawns with and then switched to the secondary ammo. Everything worked fine. When I put the original ammo back, the rifle then became a pistol. Get exactly the same results when I only spawn in the pistol. When I switch back to the primary ammo, it becomes a rifle. It seems a little random after that, can switch back and forth between the ammo’s and sometimes I’ll have a rifle, others I’ll have a pistol. Thought maybe since editor has access too all resources it may be different cooked. Nope, same issue on server. Hopefully that will help shed a little more light on what the issue may be. I’m baffled.
