[Decorate/ZScript] Question regarding A_ReFire Priorities.

[CyberosLeopard]

Sorry if this is a strange or silly question, but I’m curious to know if there are any priorities or preferences regarding a State to jump to for when A_ReFire is called? I am aware that one can add a State to A_ReFire but I have encountered difficulties with using this to jump to a specified State, and I haven’t been able to find much via searching online (likely due to my poor searching skills). From some experimenting, A_ReFire seems to prefer jumping to a Hold State (in my case AltHold as I’m using AltFire) rather than going to a predefined State. I have quickly mocked-up a rough example to try to illustrate the issue I'm facing:

Class Gun : Weapon {

int counter;

override void BeginPlay () {
	Super.BeginPlay();
	self.counter = 0;
	return;

States {
AltFire:
	//do some things
	A_ReFire;
	Goto Ready;

AltHold:
	//do some other things
	invoker.counter ++;
	if (invoker.counter >= 10) {
		return ResolveState (“AltHold0”);
	} else {
		return ResolveState (null);
	}
	A_ReFire;
	Goto Ready;

AltHold0:
	//do something else
	A_ReFire (“AltHold1”);
	Goto Ready;

AltHold1:
	//this code doesn’t get executed...
}
}

If the alternative fire button is held down one would progress from AltFire to AltHold, loop until counter is equal to 10, before moving to AltHold0. The issue I face here however is that the A_ReFire check in AltHold0 does not go to AltHold1 but back to AltHold, resulting in some code not being reached.

 

I’ve probably messed something up; I’m no programmer and I don’t exactly have a good understanding on what I’m doing.

 

Any help and advice is very much appreciated, thank you.

I cannot find any problem in the mock-up example (should work imo). A_Refire should always use the parameter-given state (unless that state does not exist).

 

Maybe there could be a typo in your actual code or something?

I'm embarrassed to admit that I have had a dyslexic moment lasting for around a week; it was indeed a typo at the source of the issue.

 

Thank you so very much for this, and I'm really sorry for wasting your time.
