Enable Idle Saber Damage in JA (Thanks razorace!)

Recommended Posts

Okay, thanks to Razor for suggesting the server side command (and it works!).

 

It's now going to become a permanent part of my server I think, 'cause it's cool!

 

 

d_saberSPStyleDamage 2

 

It's cheat protected though, so I had to put it in the shortcut command line for my dedicated server (+seta d_saberSPStyleDamage 2).

 

Just to be sure I also added it as a line to my server.cfg file.

 

Now if you touch somebody with your ignited blade they take continuous damage! It's independent of saberdamagescale, so you don't have to worry about a touch killing you. It does damage at a rate of 1 hp per 1/5 second or whatever, so a full second would take away 5 hp if you held the blade on them. Thus it seems to be more of a "gradual damage" than the "pulsing" effect we got from idle sabers in Jedi Outcast MP.

 

Also, another ignited blade will BLOCK it, almost like a mini-saber lock! (only they're not really "locked" just deflecting each other).

 

Makes the fights a little more movie-like and makes sabers a little more dangerous.

 

Before saber blades just clipped right through your model and didn't even make sparks!

Here is what the target field of my Dedicated server win32 shortcut looks like:

 

C:\games\JediAcademy\GameData\jampDed.exe +net_port 29070 +dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg +seta d_saberSPStyleDamage 2

 

Notice I exec the server.cfg file before I put in the command.

 

That seemed to work for me (AND I put seta d_saberSPStyleDamage "2" in my server.cfg file)

NP Kaan. Now if ONLY I could get SP dismemberment to work in 1.01!

 

I've tried all of Mike Gummelt's advice and even tried RA's OJP 4 mod, but I still can only get my player to be dismembered, not enemies. Frustrating...

 

 

Awesome! Going to give this a try on my server. Also quick question while on the subject of bots, for the "seta g_npcspskill" for the skill level of bots, what's the highest level they can be set to?

 

I believe "5" is the highest value it recognizes.
