Oi all,

I created myself a cool weapon, managed to have it work in-game, added it to the workbench to craft, everything's good. Almost. I'm having this issue where with the 1rst schematic, the weapon created is at 0% condition and I can't see what the problem is. When I have the 2nd and 3rd schematics, the condition is at 75% and 100%, roughly (max damage is 20, and it's at 18 and 19, respectively). So, it works but seems not quite there... is the a place I should reference a base condition for the weapon? Other than the countWeaponnameBonus in the weapons SchematicItem check script?

Here's part of the scripts if that helps:

Workbench:

		elseif button == 8			; ADPBaxter			; 1. check for schematics			if GetHasNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote == 0 && GetHasNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote10 == 0 && GetHasNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote20 == 0				ShowMessage SchematicsWorkbenchFailureGenericMsg			else				; 2. check for components				if ( player.GetItemCount WeapBaseballBat > 0 ) && ( player.GetItemCount LawnmowerBlade > 0 ) && ( player.GetItemCount SpareParts > 0 ) && ( player.GetItemCount WhetStone01 > 0 )					; 3. make it					ShowMessage SchematicsWorkbenchSuccessADPBaxterMsg					player.RemoveItem WeapBaseballBat 1 1					player.RemoveItem LawnmowerBlade 1 1					player.RemoveItem SpareParts 1 1					player.RemoveItem WhetStone01 1 1					; calculate condition					set weaponCondition to (weaponCondition * countADPBaxterBonus)					if weaponCondition > 100						set weaponCondition to 100					endif					player.AddItemHealthPercent ADPWeapBaxter 1 weaponCondition					PlaySound UIRepairWeapon					; increment count					ModPCMiscStat "Weapons Created" 1					set countADPBaxter to countADPBaxter + 1					;If the player has made one of each item, add Achievement 40					if countWeapAchievement == 0						if countBottlecap >= 1 && countDartgun >= 1 && countDeathclaw >= 1 && countNuka >= 1 && countRailway >= 1 && countRockit >= 1 && countShishkebab >= 1 && countADPBaxter >= 1 							addachievement 40							set countWeapAchievement to 1						endif					endif				else					; 4. failure message					set item1 to player.GetItemCount WeapBaseballBat					set item2 to player.GetItemCount LawnmowerBlade					set item3 to player.GetItemCount SpareParts					set item4 to player.GetItemCount WhetStone01 					ShowMessage SchematicsWorkbenchFailureADPBaxterMsg, item1, item2, item3, item4					ShowMessage SchematicsWorkbenchMsg				endif			endif				endif

Appreciate any thoughts on this.

What does this give you? 0?

set weaponCondition to (weaponCondition * countADPBaxterBonus)

The first time through, if countADPBaxterBonus is zero then the weapon condition will be zero.

Oi, thanks for the reply WillieSea,

Just to make sure I'm following the scripts right:

countADPBaxterBonus has a value of 0 to start with. If I have the 1rst version of the schematic, then this block in the SchematicADPBaxterItemSCRIPT sets its value to 1:

 ;First Improvement                elseif (player.gethasnote SchematicsADPBaxterNote == 1)                        ;Increment a variable for number of times this schematic has been gotten.                        set countADPBaxterBonus to 1                        ;Show message of quality improvement.                        ShowMessage SchematicsImprovedMsg                        player.removeNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote                        player.addNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote10                        ;Remove this item from inventory                        set AddOnce to 1                        removeme

Then, the SchematicWorkbenchScript sets the variable weaponCondition to a value of 0.80 (my repair skill is at 80):

Begin GameMode	set Button to GetButtonPressed	if ( Button >0 )		; base condition is just repair skill		set weaponCondition to (player.getav Repair)/100 

And further down, which is the block with the line you refered to, weaponCondition is set to (0.80 * 1) = 0.80. So the item created should be at 80% health? I'm confused, because the next block says that if weaponCondition is greater than 100, to set it to 100. A long ways from a 0.80 value ... And still more puzzled by the fact that the other workbench created weapons work with the same values, but with different results :toughninja: . I made a Rock-It Launcher last night with 80% condition, so, I'm stumped. How does countADPBaxterBonus get set to 0?

I just suggested that 'might' be why it has a zero health.

You should put a message in there to see what the values really are.

Make a message as a 'box' type with this text:

WeaponCondition: %.4fCountADPBaxterBonus: %.4f

set weaponCondition to (weaponCondition * countADPBaxterBonus) if weaponCondition > 100          set weaponCondition to 100 endif ShowMessage myTestMESG, weaponCondition, countADPBaxterBonusplayer.AddItemHealthPercent ADPWeapBaxter 1 weaponCondition 

Oi

The message box gave me a return of 0 for both. So that means it's not being changed by the script. Just for comparison, I made a msg box for the dartgun and that gave me 0.80 for weaponCondition and 1.25 for countDartGunBonus. Maybe I just made a syntax error somewhere... I'll go look again.

Did you make sure weaponCondition is defined as a float?

Oi

(edited out)


RickerHK: Yup, it is. It was already in the original workbench script and used for the other weapons.

Looking at the original script, the condition check should be

if weaponCondition > 1

because it's been divided already at the top and AddItemHealthPercent takes 0-1.

But that isn't what is causing the problem. Could you post the whole modified script?

EDIT: I circumvented the problem by adding another schematic check inside the workbench script (beth had to do something similar for adding the 1, 2 or 3 bottlecap mines), which works:

					; calculate condition					if player.gethasNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote						set countADPBaxterBonus to 1					elseif player.gethasNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote10						set countADPBaxterBonus to 1.25					elseif player.gethasNote SchematicsADPBaxterNote20                              set countADPBaxterBonus to 1.50					endif                                    ShowMessage ADPBaxterbonusconditionvalue, weaponCondition, countADPBaxterBonus					set weaponCondition to (weaponCondition * countADPBaxterBonus)                                    ShowMessage ADPBaxterbonusconditionvalue, weaponCondition, countADPBaxterBonus					player.AddItemHealthPercent ADPWeapBaxter 1 weaponCondition					PlaySound UIRepairWeapon

I'd still like to know why the original code worked for beth, but not for me. not sure about the 1.5 value tho. Does that sound right?

*****

Ugh, I can feel my brain frying... lol

I edited my last post cause it didn't make sense. What I know is this: 1rst schematic sets countADPBaxterBonus to 0; 2nd to 1; 3rd to 1.25. The Schematic item script does what it's supposed to do.

When weaponCondition is first set, in the workbench script, countADPBaxterBonus is back to 0. I know this because of the ShowMessage, put right after the "set weaponCondition to (player.getav Repair/100)" line. So, of course, "anything" * 0 = 0.

Anyway...:

Oi.

So, I went back to a page I had seen where it was discussed what condition custom weapons were in when created. A piece of text clicked this time, the part about "each having a value of 0.75" (the page is http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:MadCat221 ). Like I thought something else is giving the countBonus that value. Still don't know where tho. But anyway, I set this value to countADPBaxterBonus in its item script.

Could those variables be set directly in the game engine? Or another script I have found...?

Thanks for the help btw.

When you created your global countADPBaxterBonus, did you click the 'constant' box? If so, that would cause it to revert to 0 (or whatever you set it to) every time you restarted the game.

EDIT: ROFL! I feel so stupid...: Gameplay > Globals ...all the options are there... how come I didn't come across simple info like that is beyond me. How come I didn't check there... :facepalm:

Well, not-so-mystery solved. Thanks for the help :celebration:
