How to switch weapons by pressing a button

[Warmachine]

thanks guys! i will try that out with the internal flag and see what i can do. i'll keep you posted :grin: thanks again!

Awesome! not EXACTLY what i wanted but it works! lol i just assigned and equip button and unequip button. now to test and see if i can assign specific animations between the 2

-Upon pressing SPACEBAR toggle internal flag 0
-If internal flag 0 is on > Set weapon to melee
-If internal flag 0 is off > Set weapon to gun

This technique will work for a one-button switch between weapons. If you want you can do it this way, it's up to you. Also note that the "internal flag" comes from an active object. Good luck!

Sorry to aggrevate again, but im assuming i need a way to assign the active objects to the internal flags(just assuming, if im off course please let me know!lol) if that is the case how would i go about setting that up? i really would prefer to do like you suggested and use a single key press

No there is a flag inside every active object, and it already is "linked" per se to that object. As far as I know an active object can have an unlimited number of flags, just choose a number, whichever you like.

i feel ya. so i've tried running the 2 objects just like this:

Upon pressing "Spacebar"
. Melee Internal Flag 0 is on
. Gun Internal Flag 0 is off

under both the Melee and Gun columns i go under "Flags > "Toggle" > "0" but no luck :cry:

They are three different events, divide them up into three different sections and it will work. Promise.

do you mean 3 different levels within one event (thats how i have it at the moment) or 3 seperate events? im sorry to be buggin you man. i know it can be irritating when someone doesnt get this stuff :eek:

[Warmachine]
