Suits issue

This is obviously mapper's error, also I thought suits were abstract, seems not. In 227 they appear with asbestossuit model. Can it be possible to make them invisible for players again? Perhaps they can be visible in UED, but for players invisible.....

UnrealShare.Suit being visible, although it doesn't do anything, as far as I can tell.

they're not abstract or bhidden in 225f, so actually working as intended...

No it goddamn isn't working as intended, in 225 they are not visible, simply because they don't have set pickuviewmesh or something....

It's mesh is not set to None, and it's been like that since 227a after checking
Bozo must have left this in as a test for the mesh not realizing he left it out accidentally since he added his comments & mesh fix imports in that class
Also, if those "Suits" are in the map, you'd still pick them up, but they're now visible. Unless of course the mapper changed their collision.
and next time, be calm about it. Besides, this isn't really a big issue at all, in fact.. the bigger issue is the mapper putting those there & if they're still collideable they can negate the actual armor on the kevlar suit.

They can't negate the armor actually, it just says you snagged up an item.

Code: Select all
function PickupFunction(Pawn Other)
{
local inventory inv2;
if (Other.Inventory==None) Return;
for ( Inv2=Other.Inventory; Inv2!=None; Inv2=Inv2.Inventory )
if (Suits(Inv2)!=None && Inv2.class!=class) Inv2.Destroy();
}
suits(inv2) will work on any subclass, so if you pick up the "suits" class after a normal suit it will essentially do nothing

Ah yeah but it will hardly happen since you will pickup the kevlarsuit after it mostly anyway.
But really the pickupviewmesh should be disabled as it used to be, or the class should have no effect on itself or somehting like that.

Not going to happen since you aren't meant to use that inventory class. So that dosen't make any argument whatever it should be visible or not.

That's what Leo is trying to say, it should never be used, but it is still used in some maps, since it's declared as placeable for some reason.

It should be invisible as I said. It was invisible, hence why the map author didn't realize he used it at all. It shouldn't be hidden in ued though. That's not difficult to do....why argue over it?

In the end, It's down to the mapper wether they want to add classes like that. If they tried to add Unrealshare.Suit (And a mapper should know the items they are placing in a map and not just add them willy-nilly), It's their fault.
Can't blame the game for a mapper's fail.

He didn't see that the item was placed, he prolly thought the class was abstract after all. Epic should have made it abstract in a first place. But at least make it invisible like it was meat to be and visible in ued so the mapper cannot make the same mistake.
In original Unreal versions it had pickupviewmesh set, but it is still invisible to the player and has no mesh....

both opinions here have a point. In any case I see this not really critical since the possibly affected maps are rare.
Thing is, it never should have been used, but fact is, it was used. Guess we will discuss this internally again.

MEEP! Map bug detected!

Seriously, this is not actually a problem at all, this just shows how the least important things can start the biggest discussion.
I love this...
