 Re: Func_breakable Problem
Posted by Necromancer on Thu Aug 25th at 5:26am 2011

I am currently making a mod. And in one of the levels there are some air duct vents that you can break and go inside. Whenever I test play the levels running through hammer the func_breakables work perfectly. But for some reason when I run the mod through the custom games menu the func_breakables can only be destroyed by bullets and no matter how many times I hit it with the knife it never breaks. The mod has been working fine and everythig is set up properly so I'm not sure what the issue is.

As I said before though it works like it is supposed to when running it through Hammer.

Thanks for the help

If it breaks with bullets and nothing else it sounds like the damage (or whatever the setting is called) is way high.

The fact that it can be broke tells me its working. Try checking and lowering the damage it takes to break it.

Thanks for the idea. But the damage is set to "1" and it does break with a knife when I play through hammer but it only breaks by bullets when I play through custom games in half-life,(which is what I want.) So if you have any ideas how to solve this issue while playing the level through custom games then please let me know.

Thanks.

Is the above stated "knife" an added in-weapon?

No. The "knife" is the standard weapon entity used by Opposing Force. So I am not sure what the issue is. It only has this problem when played outside of Hammer.

Ah, I must've missed that this was in OP4... Nevermind then.

Decompile an OP4 map and see how they did it.

I just looked at an OP4 map and I discovered that if the flag for instant crowbar is checked then the knife does work.

However, it breaks instantly even if the damage is set higher.
But I will still take this over the prior. Thanks for the idea, it definitely helped a lot.

Really? I gotta write that down.

This issue needs some more work again. Although checking the flag: instant crowbar did mostly solve the func_break problem, the real problem that I discovered is actually much more serious and threatening than I anticipated.

The func_breakable was not the problem at all. For instance the crowbar works fine. The real problem is that for some reason Opposing Force Weapons do not work in my mod. (Except on opposing force monsters) I tried looking at every file in the opposing force directory and copying them into mine but still no luck.

This is where it gets really detrimental: Opposing Force weapons, such as the knife and other guns, such as eagle, or anything else, can ONLY kill Opposing Force Monsters and not regular Half-Life monsters. However, regular HL weapons can kill both HL and Opposing force monsters. I really would like to use both opposing force weapons and HL weapons in this mod. So any help would be very appreciated!

It seems like there is some file or something that is missing from my mod directory but as I said before I already checked and I cannot find anything that seems like it could fix this.
Thanks.

I think I finally discovered the real problem. I needed the skillop.cfg file and I finally found it. I haven't actually tried it out yet, but it makes since. The cfg defines weapon damage and monster HP values so I assume that is what the issue was. The weapons had no damage! Thanks for your support.
