This is how you set that script up, it is the right one btw.

Preset_Name: the veh you want it to buy like mine is CnC_GDI_MRLS1
Cost: the amount of money you want it to take from the player that buys one.
location: put a daves arrow on your map face it the way you want it, and copy the x,y,z and put it in the script.
Player_Type: 1 for gdi 0 for nod and i think it's 2 for un teamed not for sure...

If your still having problems let me know and i will help you more.

and far warning if you set the cost to 0 it can be spammed and there could be like 30-40 vehs there in secs so be careful...

And for everyone else that may come on here and say no use the veh buy script that one does not work the way he wants it to.

How does copying the position of a daves arrow help him rotate it? Facing and position are two separate things...

You can't have it spawn directly at an object's location using its ID? I don't remember, its been awhile.

yes you can with a different script.


Something like this should work hasn't been tested. We use a dummy object on the map to get spawn location and the facing.

void JFW_Preset_Buy_Poke2::Poked(GameObject *obj,GameObject *poker)
{
	const char *preset = Get_Parameter("Preset_Name");
	int x = Get_Int_Parameter("Player_Type");
	int cost = Get_Int_Parameter("Cost");
	int z = Get_Int_Parameter("LocationObject_ID");
	if (!z) { return; }
	if (CheckPlayerType(poker,x)) {return;}
	if (cost <= Commands->Get_Money(poker))
	{
		cost = -cost;
		Commands->Give_Money(poker,(float)cost,0);
		GameObject *LocationObject = Commands->Find_Object(z);
		Vector3 spawn_position = Commands->Get_Position(LocationObject);
		GameObject *createdobject = Commands->Create_Object(preset,spawn_position);
		float facing = Commands->Get_Facing(LocationObject);
		Commands->Set_Facing(createdobject,facing);		
	}
}

I will get some pics of how i got mine set up.

With the daves arrow you face it the way you want it and the x,y,z i will make a video of my map that i have it working in.

The X,Y,Z does NOT set the FACING, it only sets the LOCATION. You can rotate something through a full 360 degrees and it's X,Y,Z will remain exactly the same because they have NO RELATION AT ALL to the FACING.

He is not asking how to position the vehicles, he is asking how to ROTATE them. Which that script CANNOT do.

1. you need to calm your ass down and i will show you that you can with a daves arrow.
2. don't get pissed at me because every time someone needs help with a script y'all just give them some fucked up way of doing it so they give up.
3. I'm uploading a video proving that it does work.

I will finish the video l8r here is a part of it.

You need to understand that the orientation (or "facing") of an object has nothing to do with it's position. JFW_Preset_Buy_Poke has no code for changing an object's orientation and as such should not be used for spawning large objects such as vehicles.

No idea what you all are talking about but http://campa.ren-com.de/scripts.rar should do it. (Haven't tested it so please report if it does run.)

Script CaMpA_Preset_Buy_Poke
Parameters are:
Preset_Name
Cost
location
facing
Player_Type


Bückstabü!

Yep, that shows him how to set LOCATION. So, when are you going to show him how to set the ROTATION, which is what he wants?

As we keep telling you, LOCATION IS NOT THE SAME AS ROTATION. Stop giving him useless advice which doesn't work.


Anyway, cAmpa has posted a script which will do what you want, but since it appears to be using a custom scripts.dll you won't be able to actually have other players use it unfortunately.
