CUST_AMMO not working properly

smcandrew · 26-02-21, 20:47

Hey all,
It's been a while since I've properly posted. I've been playing around the with script as I was wanting to make it so the pistols are no longer unlimited ammo. I had it working on an old project however it appears the CUST_AMMO script command isn't working at all.

This is the code I am using:

Code:

Customize= CUST_AMMO, PISTOLS_AMMO_ITEM, IGNORE, 1, 20, 0, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE

Regardless of which ammo type I try to amend, it just defaults to the usual behaviour in the levels. Is there something really obvious that I'm missing and has anyone else had this issue? I may try a clean install of NG Centre.

Thanks!

^are you using Classic Inventory plugin? that might be why it doesn't work, as that plugin uses its own script lines

I think it will be cust_cinv_ammo instead of cust_ammo if that's the case

I am using the Classic Inventory plugin - I just removed the plugin and it's fixed the issue... well partially, as I would like to use the inventory plugin too... Thanks!

I *just* ran into this issue with the classic inventory. Here's the code I used to customize ammo (in this case, the shotgun pickup and associated Ammo 1):

Customize= CUST_CINV_AMMO, CINV_ITEM_SHOTGUN, CINV_ITEM_SHOTGUN_AMMO1, 2, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE
Customize= CUST_CINV_ITEM_QUANTITY, CINV_ITEM_SHOTGUN_AMMO1, IGNORE, IGNORE, 2, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE, IGNORE
