BaseMount

[joshma2]

Is it possible to add the veriable in basemount.cs to the playermobile? I want to be able to change my bodymod or whatever and be able to have players mount me. I want to use it as a joke. Can it be done? and if so how?

you may want to take a look at the ridable drake/bear scripts and see what they did...it is possible however you must edit and offer for download another file (I think it's called verdata.mul)

[joshma2]

why would I new another verdata? I ment I could change my character into a horse and go from there. A horse already has the riding animation.

ok im clue less. I tried to do this but I failed. Heh. Can I get a bit more help with doing the script part of it?

[Talrol]

if I'm not mistaken (and I very well could be in this case) in order to do this you'd have to make your character a base mount...you can't just change the graphic of your character and it become that. So basically you'd have to make your PlayerMobile a BaseMount or create a new class that's BaseMount and PlayerMobile through multiple inheritance, it's possible, but extremely complicated to explain in simple terms, and beings how this isn't something I would personally care for on my shard, not something that I'm personally willing to spend time actually trying to script. If you would like to give it a shot and then show us what you come up with, then I'm sure you will get a wealth of help as what you are attempting should be possible.

On a side note that I just considered, you may need to create a new mount class based off base mount as once a base mount is mounted it more or less becomes part of the player mobile until it's unmounted. Either way it should be possible, but will most definately not be easy.

Im just trying to get the veriable in my playermobile or somehow add it to my possess script. wouldend adding the veriable to the playermobile be easier then adding the entire basemount?

[Talrol]

it's more than just a variable in this case...you'll need to make yourself mountable which means casting your playermobile as a base mount as well as a mobile, if I'm not mistaken if you just change the playermobile class to inherite basemount it will inherite the mobile class as well...I'm not currently looking at the runuo docs to verify this however.

[joshma2]

how can I set my PM to inherite the basemount? I use a customplayermobile as well.

This is getting into me actually doing the coding for you, and as I stated I am not willing to do this. If you do not understand inheritance or multiple inheritance then I highly recommend you read some of the tutorials on oop programming particularly those pertaining to C#. Once you have done so and make an attempt at this and then require help I will more than happy to look at the code YOU write and help you modify it to work.

I don't mean to sound like an ass here, but I really am not willing to write requested scripts and this post is bordering on you requesting someone else to write the script for you.

[joshma2]

I under stand inheritance but I dont under stand multiple inheritance. I tried but I got a error trying.

[Talrol]

Show us what you tried and post all errors you received. That's the only way we can see what you're trying to do with it.

[joshma2]

lets see. It looks like this because I use a custom playermobile

 Ancient
        }

	public class CustomPlayerMobile : PlayerMobile
{

	private class CustomPlayerMobile : BaseMount
	

		#region Vampires

I tried different variations of this but none worked. My C# book says nothing about this so im lost.

Errors are

Error: Scripts\Mobiles\CustomPlayerMobile.cs CS1514 (Line 57, column 46) { Expected
Error: Scripts\Mobiles\CustomPlayerMobile.cs CS1513 (Line 839 , column 2) } expected
Error: Scripts\Mobiles\CustomPlayerMobile.cs CS0542 (Line 57, column 16) 'CustomPlayerMobile': member names cannon be the same as their enclosing type

Line 57 =
private class CustomPlayerMobile : BaseMount

Line 839 = } (End of the script)

There.
