Perfect Dark Source: item_weaponset

Entity description

An item spawn point that uses weapon sets. It may spawn a hard coded item, it may also set the ammo on each clip of the weapon.

Note:The entity is placed like a point but spawns a model entity centered on the point. item_weaponset shouldn't be placed close to the ground as this will cause big weapons to get stuck.

Keyvalues

Name (targetname) <string>

The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g. parentname or target).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.

• spawnitem

<choices> What item should spawn? Use Weapon Set will make use of weapon sets, the other options are hard coded spawns and will not take weapon sets into consideration.

• weaponsetslot

<integer> The weapon set's slot number to use. Only necessary if spawnitem is Use Weapon Set.

• howtogiveammo

<choices> Defining ammo as health, armor or whatever the item gives and PrimaryAmmo the first or only thing it gives.

0: Default

Give the default amount of ammo for the item. If Box of Rounds always gives 10 ammo then give 10 ammo.

1: Absolute

The level designer decides an absolute value of ammo. If ammovalue is 1 give 1 ammo despite the default being 10.

2: Relative

The level designer decides a relative value of ammo (relative to the max for the item). If ammovalue is 0.5 (50%), a pistol that takes up to 50 rounds and 20 in the magazine will receive 50+20 = 70 * 0.5 = 35 rounds.

3: Custom Ammo String

The level designer wants complete control of ammo. Uses customammostring to define how to give each type of ammo and the ammo values.

• ammovalue

<string> Read as a single integer or float. Skipped if howtogiveammo is Default or Custom Ammo String. Read as an integer value if Absolute, read as a float value if Relative (where 0 is 0%, 1 is 100%, 1.5 is 150%, etc). It affects all ammo sources for the item, ie. It will affect both primary and secondary ammo clips on the Superdragon.

• customammostring

<string> Contains a parameter list. Used to give different values on items giving two or more types of ammo. Structure:

#<HowToGiveAmmo Index> <AmmoValue> #<HowToGiveAmmo Index> <AmmoValue> ...

ie. Primary ammo set as Default and Secondary set as 50% Relative: #0 0 #2 0.5
