Setting & checking an obj's variable.

ID:170060
 
Mar 25 2005, 7:21 pm
I'm currently making a verb where you construct a weapon. Once the weapon is constructed it sets the weapons var. Now separately when the player walks past the weapon they made it does not fire upon them but fires on others. I have the building part down, and the checking for the var but I'm stumped on trying to set the var from the verb. Any help?

mob
    verb
        create_sword()
            var/obj/sword = new /obj/sword(usr.loc)
            sword.fire = 1
obj
    var/fire = 0
    sword
        icon = 'sword.dmi'


i guess... <_<

Whoa that is totally not what i wanted. Anyways here is what i have now.

obj
    var
        creator
    Turret
        icon='weapons.dmi'
        icon_state="turret"
        density = 1
        New()
            src.creator="[usr.key]"
            spawn(10)
                look()
    proc
        look()
            while(1)
                if(locate(/mob) in oview(src,5))
                    var/list/mobs_in_oview=new
                    for(var/mob/M in oview(src,5))
                        mobs_in_oview.Add(M)
                    var/mob/M=pick(mobs_in_oview)
                    if(src.creator==M)
                        return 0
                    var/obj/Bullet/B=new(src.loc)
                    walk_towards(B, M)
mob/verb/BuildTurrets()
    new /obj/Turret (locate(usr.x,usr.y,usr.z))


Now this still shoots the creator and I don't want it to. Any suggestions?

                    if(M.color==src.color&&M.health>0)return
                    var/obj/Bullet/B=new(src.loc)
                    walk_towards(B, M)
                sleep(reloadtime)


Updated -- still does not work with this line
if(M.color==src.color&&M.health>0)return
