Phased Torps Do Not Work After Interjecting Script

[Digital_Clarity]

Ok,

I'm running KM 1.1 Beta with current patch. I used BCUT 1.7.5 to interject the "phased torpedo" script into
the weapon.py (PhotonTorpedo.py).

Loaded BC, tested the torpedo. It caused normal damage to the target's shields and did not pass through them.

I searched the forum and found a thread concerning the same issue (http://bc-central.net/forums/index.php/topic,6270.0.html),
but I didn't really find what I was looking for as far as a solution.

Here's the torpedo script as well.

Code: [Select]

import App

def Create(pTorp):
kCoreColor = App.TGColorA()
kCoreColor.SetRGBA(255.0 / 255.0, 255.0 / 255.0, 128.0 / 255.0, 1.000000)
kGlowColor = App.TGColorA()
kGlowColor.SetRGBA(255.0 / 255.0, 128.0 / 255.0, 0.0 / 255.0, 1.000000)

pTorp.CreateTorpedoModel(
"data/Textures/Tactical/ds9torp.tga",
kCoreColor,
0.15,
9.0,
"data/Textures/Tactical/ds9torp.tga",
kGlowColor,
2.0,
0.5,
0.6,
"data/Textures/Tactical/TorpedoFlares.tga",
kGlowColor,
12,
0.3,
0.1)

pTorp.SetDamage( GetDamage() )
pTorp.SetDamageRadiusFactor(0.15)
pTorp.SetGuidanceLifetime( GetGuidanceLifetime() )
pTorp.SetMaxAngularAccel( GetMaxAngularAccel() )

# Multiplayer specific stuff.  Please, if you create a new torp
# type. modify the SpeciesToTorp.py file to add the new type.
import Multiplayer.SpeciesToTorp
pTorp.SetNetType (Multiplayer.SpeciesToTorp.PHOTON)

return(0)

def GetLaunchSpeed():
return(20.0)

def GetLaunchSound():
return("Photon Torpedo")

def GetPowerCost():

def GetName():
return("Photon")

def GetDamage():

def GetLifetime():
    return 12.0

Did you install FTech and turn it on?

[JimmyB76]

i thought KM came with FTech tho?  still, make sure the mutator for Foundation Technologies is turned on...

[teleguy]

Yeah, sure.

Shame on me.

[Digital_Clarity]

KM 1.1 Beta has FTech and mutators are auto-activated for you after installation. It should work fine
after interjecting the script into the torpedo.py. I am befuddled.

you may want to ask about it in BCUT's forum at BCS...
