How to prevent people losing killstreak rewards on death?

[Akira303]

Hi

Im using this to take everyones weapons and give them intervention..

DoWeapons()
{
                                self takeAllWeapons();
		self giveWeapon( "cheytac_heartbeat_thermal_mp", 3, false );self GiveMaxAmmo("cheytac_heartbeat_thermal_mp");
		while(self getCurrentWeapon() != "cheytac_heartbeat_thermal_mp") {
		self switchToWeapon("cheytac_heartbeat_thermal_mp");
		wait 0.1;
		}
}

and this to set my own perks & killstreak

DoPerks()
{
                self _clearPerks();
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_fastmantle");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_bulletaccuracy");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_holdbreath");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_improvedholdbreath");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_fastreload");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_fastsprintrecovery");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_longersprint");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_automantle");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_bulletdamage");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_bulletpenetration");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_rof");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_fasthands");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_fastsnipe");
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk("specialty_quickdraw");
                self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk( "flash_grenade_mp" );
	self maps\mp\perks\_perks::givePerk( "c4_mp" );
                self SetOffhandSecondaryClass( "flash" );
                self giveWeapon( "flash_grenade_mp" );self setWeaponAmmoClip("flash_grenade_mp", 2);
	self maps\mp\killstreaks\_killstreaks::clearKillstreaks();
	self maps\mp\gametypes\_class::setKillstreaks( "uav", "airdrop", "predator_missile" );

}

But the problem is..when the player dies before they use their killstreak reward..they lose it. The next time they spawn you hear the voice "UAV ready for deployment" or whatever..but pressing 4 does nothing.

I think it's because Im using

self takeAllWeapons(); &

self maps\mp\killstreaks\_killstreaks::clearKillstreaks ();

both these threads run from onPlayerSpawned()

anyone know how to prevent them losing the killstreak rewards on death?

The next time you get a kill-streak after losing it you get it back + the one that you earned

[Akira303]

ok thanks but..why? and can't I code this in such a way so that doesn't happen?

I get really tired of having this conversation..

them "why can't I use my predator!!"

me "did you die?"

them "yah"

me "then you lost it, killstreak rewards are lost on death"

them "OMFG!! that's gay! noob host you suck"

K, this is how to fix it
First delete the
self maps\mp\killstreaks\_killstreaks::clearKillstreaks ();
and
self maps\mp\gametypes\_class::setKillstreaks( "uav", "airdrop", "predator_missile" );

then type in

self setPlayerData( "killstreaks", 0, "uav" );
self setPlayerData( "killstreaks", 1, "airdrop" );
self setPlayerData( "killstreaks", 2, "predator_missile" );

Haven't tried this but it should work

thanks..but it doesnt work, is that a valid PC code? or xbox? Im on PC..

with that code..for some reason I didnt get uav at all and then when i got my care package I let someone kill me, but on spawn I had lost the care package...I then killed another 4 people and got care package (EMP) but I also had the precision airstrike to use from the previous care package..weird.

does the code self takeAllWeapons(); also take killstreak rewards?

maybe I could delete the code takeallweapons...and instead give them a revolver or something with no ammo as the secondary weapon?

[TheLynx]

its for PC.
and put the code in onPlayerjoinedteam()
maybe it will work

/moved to help

umm why have you moved this to help?

Im asking for help with GSC Modding.. isnt the "
Call of Duty MW2 Server/GSC Modding" section for asking for help with mods?

Help it's help, doesn't matter if it involves textures, GSC modding..etc.

[Akira303]

there's alot of other threads with people asking for help in "MW2 Server/GSC Modding" section..they haven't been moved?

it doesn't work..Ive tried putting the code in it's own thread and calling it from onPlayerjoinedteam, tried putting directly in onPlayerjoined team..but nothing

anyone got any other ideas?

/ You call stuff on your onplayerspawned

[Akira303]

tried that also..still doesnt work.

does the command self takeAllWeapons(); also take killstreaks? because I have that in my DoWeapons() thread called from onPlayerSpawned..
