Sup' Viking Homies!
I thought it was 'bout time I released a beta version of the grapplehook I have been working on. You can download it from the link under my sig8-)
Here is a copy of the ReadMe I made, it explains what the iNiScorpHook is all about.
The "Scorpion" GrappleHook(beta) by =iNi=(1%)LePro$y
Well here 'tis, the beta release of the grapplehook I've been constructing off'n'on over the last 6 months. I kinda wanted it to work like the electrograpple off Quake3, but with also the ability to grab stuff and drag it to the player. Then =iNi=NeoSark gave me the idea to make it like Scorpion's grapple off Mortal Kombat by adding the classic "Get Over Here" sound sample when it grabs a player. I tried to jam-pack it with heaps of stuff, some stuff works, some stuff I had to cull but will try and add it in a later version when I figure out how to do it.
/////WARNING!!!\\\\\
This weapon still has a few major bugs, these will eventually be ironed out in later versions.
(1) You can occasionally get stuck on an edge when your are being dragged towards the grapple, unless you are an admin, you have to type suicide to get free.
(2) When you are stuck to a wall or ceiling and you throw the grapple again, occasionally it will disappear into the wall, leaving the hapless player stuck to wall with no way down. Again you have to suicide your way out, unless your are admin and can type "walk".
(3) For some reason I have yet to work out, occasionally the grapple will cause the server to crash. This is annoying but only happens every now and then, and should be fixed in a later version.
(4) Sometimes, occasionally, for some reason, a player will become invisible. The only way to remedy this other than rejoining the game, is to get someone with a grapple to grab you with it, then you will be visible again.
INSTALLATION:
(1) Put iniGrip.u in your Rune/System folder.
(2) Put the MKNoyz.uax in your Rune/Sounds folder.
(3) Put this line in your Rune.ini with the other ServerPackages and save it;
ServerPackages=iniGrip
(4) When in a map, become an admin and type;
summon inigrip.inigrip
(5) Thats it!
HOW TO USE:
(0) Throw it.
(1) If you are crouching when the grapple hits a wall, then you will stick to the spot on the wall or ceiling where the grapple hit.
(2) To jump off a wall after you stick yourself there, simply press any of the movement keys.
(3) If you don't want to be dragged all the way to where the grapple hits, then be running when it hits. Then the player will only be dragged a short way towards the hit spot.
(4) If you wanna fly superman style, then jump and be in the air as the grapple hits a surface.
(5) The hook has the ability to grab carcasses, food and other players and drag them back to the grapple owner, where they remain stuck on the grapplespike. They come loose either when the grapple owner swings the grapple, or if the grapple hits a wall after being thrown.
(6) If the item attached to the grapple is another player, then you can stow your grapple to kill the player and get a "FATALITY".
(7) Jump and press attack when a player is attached to the grapple, to whack them and send them flying
(8) If you are the Server owner, then you can access inbuilt functions in the grapple.
These special abilities will only work after the grapple has been thrown at least once.
Set the following hotkeys;
set input p scoff
set input o playdead
set input j rude
Unfortunately at this stage they do not work for server clients, only the player running the server.
Well, that's it folks, have fun wid da iNiScorpHook.
Thanks to the makers of the faithful axe for the DungeonMaster mod, it was a great help in developing the grapple.
If anyone knows how to fix any of the bugs in the grapple, then feel free to look at my code and tell me how to make it better.
