TProjectile

[Stryke]

Set a bullet speed?

player.level.projectiles[player.level.projectiles.size()].speed = 1;

Doesn't work..

TProjectile

How does this work ?

[zokemon]

player.level.projectiles[player.level.projectiles.size()]

wouldn't work anyways as that doesn't exist.

An array with a size of 1 is only gonna have index 0, same as an array with size 2 is only gonna have 0 and 1.

You want:
player.level.projectiles[player.level.projectiles.size() - 1]

Though I'm pretty sure almost all TProjectile variables are read-only.

As Zero said, you can't edit the projectile object Would be cool to edit it though.. instead of making a new one to reflect a projectile we could just alter the angle variable..

The point of the projectiles is that you only have to transmit network data once at creation. The client and the server then runs their own versions of the projectile, minimizing unnecessary traffic. I think that's a reasonable tradeoff.

Hmm, probably :o

Maybe if you could set the speed at the start?

UNCALLED FOR! Who would ever think we'd want our projectiles flying at speeds we personally desired! UNHEARD OF.

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but it's my own thread and I didn't want to create a new one, so.. If you log on to Ol' West on their news message it says that bullets have been slowed down, so how did they do it?

They make custom projectiles by using a class joined to a putnpc2().

Not all of them are read-only. You can set the zoom of them
