Eliminating the Sword

[Angel_Light]

How do I get rid of the default sword? I got setSword( NULL, 0); and replaceAni( "sword", NULL); Which get rid of the physical part of the sword. But a player can still walk up to a bush push S, and with the player ani staying idle, the bush is miraculously being cut. I.E. the bush is vanishing and the leaps are showing but the player does nothing.

Custom attack system.

[Angel_Light]

I have that, It is just not removing the sword effect.

[coreys]

disableWeapons();

[Kyranki]

enablefeatures() is actually the best way to do it.

[Angel_Light]

thanks guys

You can disable the sword through enablefeatures?

...no o_o
You have to use disableWeapons(); o.0 There is not feature in enablefeatures for sword usage...

[Angel_Light]

I could've sworn that disablesword was a command, but it doesn't appear in the list of commands on the wiki. It either didn't make it to documentation, is an old (now unsupported) command, or was never a command to begin with.

[DustyPorViva]

You might be thinking of hidesword(int), used to be used on old Graal to hide the sword in case you used the sword sprite indexes and didn't want the sword to be shown.

[Kyranki]

Actually, Vash. enablefeatures(params); disables all the features except for those that are listed in the parameters. And one of those parameters is the ability to use the sword. Which means if you use enablefeatures(params) and do not include (I forget the number of the param for weapons) you will lose the ability to use the sword and weapons.

Considering this is how I do it on Arca, It is possible to disable weapons using enablefeatures(params) unless I "ZOMGWTFPWNED the graal servers" to make this work.

[Angel_Light]

look at the wiki. You can disable the qmenu though.

NPC Code:

---

      1 - M key (map)

      2 - P key (pause)

      4 - Q key (weapon select)

      8 - R key (show ratings)

   0x10 - S+A key combination for dropping items

   0x20 - S+D key combination for switching weapons

   0x40 - TAB key (if disabled then you cannot switch to the chat field with TAB)

   0x80 - display of chat text

  0x100 - display of the hearts over player heads

  0x200 - display of nicknames

  0x400 - toall/PM-icons on the minimap

  0x800 - right-click on players opens their profile

 0x1000 - emoticons (disable it if you want to do other stuff with control+keys)

 0x2000 - Alt+5 for making snapshots

 0x4000 - Alt+8/9 for zooming

 0x8000 - the logframe where savelog stuff is added

---

There is no flag for weapons/swords for enablefeatures.

[Kyranki]

Maybe it's showstats dunno.

Thats called being owned in the face, Stan.

Sometimes you seem to be too confident in yourself. You should double check sometimes to refrain from making yourself look stupid in the future, I do!

Think before you speak.

[Kyranki]

I get the point. o_o

If so, would someone kindly care to explain what enablefeatures() is doing that makes it so the s button doesn't work then?

Edit: Ok, wait. I have a custom movement system so I feel like an *******. But it doesn't use disableweapons() anywhere. Would disabledefmovement() disable the sword as well? o_O

Edit 2: Yeah, disabledefmovement() is what was disabling the sword (tested it first ;o).

Read napo's post, enablefeatures keeps the declared bitmaps enabled.

For example:
enablefeatures( 1 );
Would keep the "M" button enabled for Graal's map viewer. Every other listed feature will not work.

If you want to add another feature append a "-" sign and then another bitflag.
enablefeatures( 1 - 2);
Would enable both the "M" button for the default map viewer, and the "P" to enable Graal's standard pause.

disabledefmovement(); disables the player's ability to move, not sure if it prevents the player from swinging or not.

Looooooooooooooooooooooooooool.

[Angel_Light]

also enablefeatures( 1 | 2 | 4); "|" works too.

[Kyranki]

@ rapidwolve, I tested some with only a weapon with disabledefmovement() and without any weapons at all. He could swing without the weapon and when the weapon was added he couldn't swing.

What weapon are you talking about?

[Kyranki]

It was a custom movement system :o I'm referring to a Weapon NPC of course.

So when your custom weapon is equipped (or in the inventory) the character cannot swing, but when it isn't they can? I don't quite follow you.

[Kyranki]

I was testing the usage of disabledefmovement() and it's relevancy as far as removing functionality for the default sword swing.

I removed all the testers weapon npcs. Then had them relog in. I had them press s and the default swing worked. Then I added the custom movement to them which contains the "disabledefmovement()" function and asked them to press s again and it didn't work.

Get me?

Oh, my bad I completely misunderstood. Hmm, then apparently disabledefmovement() does disable the default sword swing. Never really used it for that though, doesn't really seem practical but you have a custom movement system so that makes sense.

I hope you mean "+".

You stole my post :<

[Angel_Light]

*bump* still no working solution.

EDIT: disableweapons()/disablemovement() work, but seem quite unpractical. Is there a way to just disable the sword? Also is there anyway to make so the player can not pick up the tile bushes?

[DustyPorViva]

disableweapons and simply rescript the weapon(D)?

[Angel_Light]

I GOT IT!!! Without disabling weapons. I feel really stupid for not realizing this earlier. XP

PHP Code:

setSword( "", -1); 


will disable it all together.

Now as for the bush matter. I'm still lost other than using disabling the movement System.

[DustyPorViva]

That's odd... I thought negatives just made it a healing sword.
Like I said, you can simply just disable weapons... which will only disable the sword and weapon, and rescript the weapons(if you still need to use them). It's not that hard to rescript the weapon function.

[Angel_Light]

Well. The weapons sys I already have needs weapons to be enabled (for onKeyPressed and stuff to work)
