Check my code please?

I`m having some issues with this, it is supposed to attach a gun to my model, it works fine but the model doesn`t move anymore, i mean, the anims are running but the character doesn`t.

The gun model is already set to PASSABLE, (and if i set the same flag on the player model it runs smoothly) i think it has something to do with the bounding box of the model, when using fat hull (the default one) it kinda moves but it get stuck after some frames. here`s the attaching code:

STRING Gatlin_mdl = "Gatlin.mdl";
function Gatlin()

{
proc_mode = PROC_LATE;
set(my,PASSABLE); // the Gatlin shouldn't slow down the player
while (player == NULL){wait (1);}//wait ´till the player is created.
while(1)
{
vec_for_vertex (my.skill1, you, 1446);
vec_for_vertex (my.skill4, you, 1447); //special vertex made for this


vec_diff (my.skill7, my.skill4, my.skill1);// compute the vector that will be used by the Gatlin
vec_to_angle (my.pan, my.skill7); // rotate the Gatlin accordingly

// put the origin of the Gatlin in the vertex that is placed at the bottom of the arm
vec_set (my.x, my.skill1);
wait (1);
}
}


and just in case, this is the whole thing:

AND if you can tellme a thing or two about the code, would be nice. (i think the movment part is odd.)

try to activate fat hund AND narrow hull at the same time.
This might help with the collision.

p.s.; try to use different values for camera.arc,
60 is too low for an FPS.

I`ll give it a try!

the arc was low `cause i wanted to see the whole bounding box, 90 is the "normal" value, (it`s a 3th person shooter).

nothing to say about the movement code?
is it effective setting it as a lot of "IF" clauses?
is there another method, faster or something?

Thanxs very much!

You have to set the IGNORE_PASSABLE flag as a parameter in the c_move function.

Your jump don´t work, right? You need to hold space to play the animation, right?

IGNORE_PASSABLE, WOW, so THAT`S what happened!! i didn`t realize!

and yup, my jump code is not working, i`m alone on this project, and being a complete noob I`m trying to solve one problem at a time.

Sooo... do you have any idea on jumping code? I took this one from a very old AUM, but you see, it isn`t working.


And again, THAAANKS

There are several ways of jumping. it´s a typical problem

Just use the search. Type in "jump" with the "" signs

I would maybe do something like:

on_space = jump;

and call the jump function extern. not in the players action.
