Hi guys. Is there an action_ in the attrib editor that allows an action to be looped? Basically what I'm looking to do is to have a soldier's animation repeat the reloading animation of the weapon when he's reloading.

I'm pretty sure the action should go under "on_reload_actions", but I can't find the specific action that pertains to my needs. Does anyone know what I'm looking for? Many thanks in advance.

Nice.

Are you planning to add hotkeys to them?

Alright, in detail:

1. The max speed of the vehicle is set in the moving_ext of the vehicle entity, let's say the value is 5,7.

2. I toggle an ability that will let the vehicle slow down - however I want it to slow down exactly to a max_speed of 3. A _modifier triggered by the ability will only allow me to modify the existing max_speed - not replace it with a fixed value.

I can therefore only multiply the original max_speed by, in this case 0,526 - to get very close to a speed of 3. However, once veterancy speed modifiers for example kick in too, I will no longer be able to achieve a max speed of 3 with the same multiplier.

There isn't a specific option, yet, but there is a work around -

You'll need to create two instances of the ability, let's call them ability_speed_1 and ability_speed_2.

These two abilities will slow down the vehicle to a maximum speed of 3 (or closer).

You will set under ability_speed_2's requirement_ext to require a veterancy rank of (desired rank number) by using required_squad_veterancy.

ability_speed_1's requirement_ext will then be set to required_not the veterancy rank stated in ability_speed_2's requirement_ext.

Make sure you modify both of these abilities to reduce the maximum speed of the vehicle to 3 (or closer) from the vehicle's latest original speed. Example, at veteran 0, vehicle's max speed is 7, at veteran 1, vehicle's max speed is 8, so you will use each ability to modify each vet. level's max speed.

Now give these two abilities to the vehicle. Make sure you give the abilities to either the ebps or the sbps as appropriated by how the ability applies the _modifiers.

To modify whether an ability is usable or displayable or both, change the requirement_reason of the requirement to either -

usage

display

OR

usage_and_display

This way, one instance of the ability will be usable and displayed to the player at veteran 0, and when the vehicle reaches veteran 1, the other ability will be displayed and usable, while the previous instance will be hidden from the player.


Let me know if you are having any issues with the topic.

2. The maximum speed of a vehicle can afaik only be modified by a modifier which allows to add a certain value or multiply the speed.

You're wrong.

Under ebps > (vehicle in question)_ebps > _extension > moving_ext > speed_max, is where you should be modifying the base maximum speed of a vehicle unit, and moving_ext is where you should always set the base movement stats of a vehicle, not through _modifiers.

Next time, you should double-check the tools for any options/function that will serve your purpose because that will save you more time. And give the entire tool a thorough once-over to identify key features that you will use for your mod, so that it will be much easier for you to use the tools.

If you need any more help, feel free to ask.

EDIT: I'm sorry for the rude reply, if I appear as rude. It's been a tiring day.
