Odd slade glitches, and more...

[Melonpizza]

Hello, in my time of using slade i stumbled acrosss two dorns in the programm

 

1.

the programm wont detect "A_Fireprojectile"

it just shows up in grey, and is not-working code, tho its a actual command.

I currently use a_firecustommissile, but its depracted. So in future my mod could be incompatable in some time.

 

2.

(for a wierd reason only on my craptop)

this always happens if i look at pics in slade, its just blank white

 

also, how do i prevent a player from sprinting? (in decorate)

 

thanks

Try using stable version, not the unstable beta.

If you want to prevent sprinting completely, you can create a new player class and just change two properties:

 

ACTOR MyPlayerClass : DoomPlayer

{

      Player.ForwardMove 1, 0.5

      Player.SideMove 1, 0.5

}

 

Then just specify the player class in MAPINFO:

 

Gameinfo
 {
    PlayerClasses = "MyPlayerClass"
 }

I think i explained it a little poorly, i want to prevent a player from sprinting under a condition (preferably a state)

[Rifleman]

You could use A_SetSpeed in a state and set it to 0.5, then use it again somewhere to set it back to 1.

Maybe if you explain what you want to do, we can give you better advice. Like, under which condition should the player sprint?

Thats what i did, but the sprint makes you still faster.

[Rifleman]

True, but the sprint is the same speed as normal walk with it. With 'always run', I don't think many would notice. While I have no further ideas, you might do it the other way around, the default would be no sprint and it could be activated, with the option being removable. I found this older thread that might give you some inspiration:

so, the weapons alfire and fire should not allow the playes to sprint (on the altfire, it ends upon pressing altfire again. and on fire it ends upon not holding fire, with a_setspeed i already got it to work. But the player can still sprint, witch makes him just a litte too fast)
