Trick for the reloading sequence

[Lioyd_Irving]

Hey, Lioyd here. I've found a simple way to separate the reloading sequence and the AltFire using nothing but DECORATE and a bit of QuakeC.

First, make a custom actor named IsReloading.

Code: Select all

ACTOR IsReloading : Inventory
{
Inventory.MaxAmount 1
}

Then, replace the AltFire state label(take one that will never happen with a weapon, in this case XDeath)

So, here we go.

Code: Select all

XDeath:
     blah blah blah...
     SPRT A 0 A_TakeInventory("IsReloading",1)
     Goto Ready

Now the other part. Open up your KEYCONF lump and type this :

Code: Select all

alias reload "give isreloading"
defaultBind <key> reload

And then, go back to the DECORATE sequence and add this to the Ready state:

Code: Select all

    SPRT A 0 A_JumpIfInventory("IsReloading",1,1)
    Loop
    SPRT A 0
    Goto XDeath

And there it is ! A free slot for your alternate fire.
