Hey ! Thanks for your attention !

 

My problem here is that I wanted to know how to not kill the mine carrier when he drops his explosive present.

 

I looked in the weapon.ini but didn't find anything :/ Only the way to change the spawned object.

 

Any help ?

Had a quick look, this should be all the info u need. spawnandfade is probs the one ur looking 4

 

 

Weapon IsengardExplosiveMineDroppingWeaponPosition            ; BALANCE Mine Weapon
    AttackRange                = 15.0
    MeleeWeapon                = No
    DelayBetweenShots            = 3000                ; time between shots, msec
    PreAttackDelay            = 1466                ; 433 is natural time of the stabbing animation.
    PreAttackType            = PER_SHOT                ; Do the delay each time we attack a new target
    FiringDuration            = 733                    ; min 600 for anim
    AcceptableAimDelta        = 15                    ; Give it a little leeway
    NoVictimNeeded            = Yes                    ; Need no target
    OverrideVoiceAttackSound    = ExplosiveMineVoiceDeploy    ;Play Special "leave it there voice"

    SpawnAndFadeNugget    
        ObjectTargetFilter = ANY +STRUCTURE +INFANTRY +CAVALRY +MONSTER -ROCK_VENDOR; And funny thing, even though this has Position in the name, nothing actually makes it be Position based.  So when the object one fails on a rock, this one get picked.  So filter goes here too.
        SpawnedObjectName = IsengardDeployedExplosiveMine
        SpawnOffset = X:8 Y:1 Z:0
    End
End

 

Behavior = SlowDeathBehavior ModuleTag_ExplosiveDeath
        DeathTypes = NONE +BURNED
        DeathFlags = DEATH_3
        SinkDelay = 3000
        SinkRate = 1.40     ; in Dist/Sec
        DestructionDelay = 10000
        Sound = INITIAL UrukVoiceDie
        Weapon = INITIAL IsengardExplosiveMineExplosionWeapon
    End

 

 

Weapon IsengardExplosiveMineExplosionWeapon   ; BALANCE Mine Weapon
    AttackRange           = 4.0
    DelayBetweenShots     = 2000            ; time between shots, msec
    FireFX                = FX_ExplosiveMine
    RadiusDamageAffects = ALLIES ENEMIES NEUTRALS SELF

Yes now the explosion doesn't kill him, but he still dies when he drops the mine...

[Ridder Geel]

Well I dont think EA even made animations for the guy when he has dropped the mine...

[Lauri]

Aren't there two carriers? At least in BFME1 the carriers used the normal uruk animations.

[CobrasShadows]

Yeah of course ^^ But there's a mine dropping weapon so I gave it to Glorfindel (testing purposes don't ask xP) and he dies when he drops the mine... I just want him to survive to place a lot of mines.

The spawn and fade is the thing that does it...

My reasoning as to why:

Spawn - Spawn this unit

Fade - Fade out the unit using this weapon (so kill it)

 

See if ur able to find some other module for dropping a mine, possibly an ocl power or whatever

Or just spawn 3 units somehow, the 2 uruks and the mine

[ICT]

I can't read this topic with a signature like that.

[Valheru]

as above in my code. Turn the spawnnfade into an OCL instead

Okay thanks a lot it worked I just made like you said I spawned a new hero. Thanks!
