CCCXLII Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I've been wondering something. I know it's possible to make a vehicle faster than another vehicle. But is it possible to make certain personnel faster than other personnel? And is it possible to temporarily raise or decrease a unit's speed? I've been toying with the idea of making an on-foot Pursuit Cop (a la Mirror's Edge). EDIT1: I just tried putting a <speed value="100" /> tag on an officer. No change in speed.

bma Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 Not sure if it works. But try p.SetSpeed(10.f); Proberly won't but it is a place to start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCCXLII Posted October 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Not sure if it works. But try p.SetSpeed(10.f);Proberly won't but it is a place to start I'm not familiar enough with the game's script language to try that, though I have a feeling that your suggestion might work. If I could, I would create an alternate arrest command for the Pursuit Cops, causing their speed to increase when starting the target_follow behavior. Something I did discover, after a bit of searching, is that you can change the upgrade level of the unit to technically change their speed. By lowering the value, you can make it so a personnel is unable to run, but that's about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bma Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 yeah, em4 has an upgrade system going from 0-3 where 0 will only walk and 3 will be the fastest. I have played a bit with it in Helping Peter mod where you can switch between walking and running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Loot Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 yeah, em4 has an upgrade system going from 0-3 where 0 will only walk and 3 will be the fastest. I wonder if that is behind the issue where some of my persons started walking in missions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itchboy Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 I've done some testing and it appears that SetUpgrade does not work in freeplay. Only works in missions.Wanted to make medics walk when using a Stryker in the Montana mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Graphic Designs Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 So, the SetUpgrade works in Missions?Sent from my iPhone 4 using Tapatalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bma Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Hmm, you are proberly right itchboy, when i tested it, I only tried in missions. But as far as i recall the styrker script i most mods tricks the game into thinking the paramedics are carrying an invisible person, and the game doesn't have any animations for running while carrying somebody. Not sure if its possible to change Yes, the SetUpgrade works in mission. You can try my mod Helping Peter if you hold down shift while using the move command the personel switches between walking and running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game lifts the invisible injured person, which is why it makes the medic walk.EM4 forces units in FP to be upgrade level 3 at all times unfortunately. I am looking through every possible option (unit.xml, freeplaybase, EM4 SDK) to figure out a way to force them to walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the solution is to make the game run as a mission then?I have made most of it work for Copenhagen, only problem with it, was that i couldn't figure out a way to make it possible to click on the missions like in freeplay, so it was almost impossible to find some of the missions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, people would not be able use the mod in multiplayer.Did you create your own mission script with custom function calls or did you use the ones made by the Germans?

It looks confusing because there are so much script in the same document But what i did was taking a script from one of the original missions and delete everything except the headlines. Then i used US army mod as a reference to see how the Hoppah did it. The rest was just makeing the features i wanted one at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
