== Cycle Time ==

In, m_flCycleTime = pKeyValuesData->GetFloat( "CycleTime", 0.15 ); what's that cycletime?  Is .15 15% of 1 second or what? [[User:Banaticus|Banaticus -- BAH]] 08:36, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
:Seconds seem sensible doesn't it? 0.15 = 150ms --[[user:TomEdwards|TomEdwards]] 19:14, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

== Server/client weapon attributes sync ==

How can I control which attributes will be synchronized between server and client, and which ones won't?

In my tests, changes to MyModWeaponData were being replicated to clients, but if I changed something from FileWeaponInfo_t, let's say iSlot, it doesn't get replicated to clients.

:You'll need to network vars that aren't replicated yourself through the normal channels. It makes total sense that iSlot shouldn't be part of Valve's datatables. :-) --[[user:TomEdwards|TomEdwards]] 10:49, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

== Is it possible to use Weapon scripts to turn basehlcombatweapon into a new weapon? ==

So I tried making a file named basehlcombatweapon.txt in Half-Life 2/hl2/scripts, this is a copy of weapon_357.txt, this made the otherwise nonfunctional weapon into a 357 that doesn't have the sniper-worthy accuracy and fires too fast.
Is it possible that, if we copy a .cpp file and rename it to basehlcombatweapon.txt, we can make new weapons?
