Function Variables?

I've been seeing lines like this around:

Code:

[[game[team+"_model"]["ASSAULT"]]]();

Are theses invoked functors? I wish I knew how to to use them. I'm doing heavy modifications to quarantine chaos zombie mod and I need rearrange shop items.

U know theres a section for this kinda stuff, its the gsc modding help/discussion something like that.

Oh snap can someone love this topic please? Thank you.

Well if you do a search, you will find those are just variables that link to a thread.

Example (from Black Ops):

Code:

[[level.callbackStartGameType]]();
level.callbackStartGameType = maps\mp\gametypes\_globallogic::Callback_StartGameType;

Example for your case:

Code:

game[team + "_model"]["SNIPER"] = mptype\mptype_tf141_desert_sniper::main;
game[team + "_model"]["LMG"] = mptype\mptype_tf141_desert_lmg::main;
game[team + "_model"]["ASSAULT"] = mptype\mptype_tf141_desert_assault::main;
game[team + "_model"]["SHOTGUN"] = mptype\mptype_tf141_desert_shotgun::main;
game[team + "_model"]["SMG"] = mptype\mptype_tf141_desert_smg::main;
game[team + "_model"]["RIOT"] = mptype\mptype_tf141_desert_riot::main;

As I said above, those are just variables that link to a function.

Do you instantiate the function as a thread before assigning it? Why can't I do this?

Code:

foo(){}
bar()
{
baz = foo;
[[baz]]();
}

Or do you need to associate an object to the assignment before the invocation? Or does it need to be declared as a thread all together?

I have no idea but you may have to delcare the thread globally and not locally.

Code:

baz = maps\mp\gametypes\_rank::foo;
[[baz]]();

EDIT - Just found out, if you want to load a function from the same file, you have to do this:

Code:

baz = ::foo;
[[baz]]();

Otherwise if you want to link to a function from another file:

Code:

baz = maps\mp\gametypes\_rank::foo;
[[baz]]();

To pass arguments through to the desired function you put them inside the brackets before the semi-colon.
