Help setting up a LAN server for B.Pro

Post by Rymosrac » Thu 17 Oct , 2013 7:33 pm

Hey all, I'm working on moving my LAN group from playing standard BW2.5 to BallisticPro, and was looking for help with a couple issues I was hoping to sort out before our next event this Friday.

The biggest thing I'm having trouble with is the killstreaks. I've been unable to locate a bind option for the Claim Killstreaks command and have had no success attempting to manually set a bind for it.

Also, with regards to customizing which weapons are available as killstreaks - is there a simple way to change which weapons do and do not receive ammo from the ammo pack pickups? Some weapons, like the flamethrower, are ones that my group prefers to have available in the primary slot, and not being able to pick up ammo for it is frustrating.

Note: I'm using the offline version of the mod since I can't seem to connect to the LDG servers to download the mod that way.

Thanks in advance!

Command is mutate killstreak. Try using the bind menu (BWInteractions3.u) when playing.

Any weapon with bWT_Super set won't receive ammo from bags. This does include the RX22A, since it's KS1. It's done to prevent superweapons from becoming overpowered in Loadout games.

Thanks, I'd been using mutate_killstreak. That explains the issue there.

I knew the ammo limitation was for balance, just wanted to know how I could adjust it. Thank you!

You'd have to recompile the mod to change it.

Yeah. Would I need anything beyond the UDE and your permission to do so?

Well that was an unproductive hour of poking around in things.
All I was able to find were a few comments and what looked like bWT_Super being declared.

Are you sure I don't need a decompliled version of the mod to edit weapon properties?

Forgive me if I'm being retarded here, I'm obviously pretty new to this.

Tell you what, I'll allow pack resupply for the RX22A and update BallisticPro Offline.

I supplied the wrong var in any case. Ammo_FlamerGas.uc, bNoPackResupply to False.
