Repulsionwave Crashes

posted on May 22nd, 2013, 10:52 pm

I'm having trouble with a repulsionwave weapon (the kind used on the stock Klingon super weapon ship). Specifically, it crashes when I fire it. I know the Classic Mod version works, so I tried copying it over, but it still crashed when fired in my mod. Here's my current version, based on the Classic Mod version.

grwave.odf

Code: Select all

ordName = "rwave"
wpnName = "Subspace Shockwave"
tooltip = "Subspace Shockwave - Jach'eng"
verboseTooltip = "tip-grwave.odf"
buttonSlot = 9
popupSlot = 9
buttonBorder = 0
special = 1
shotDelay = 3.5
range = 1000.0f
fireSound = "swkripsh.wav"
classLabel = "cannon"
wpnReticle = "gblast"
needTarget = 1
targetLocation = 1
hotkeyLabel = "HOTKEY_BS"

rwave.odf

Code: Select all

classLabel = "repulsionwave"
specialEnergyCost = 1000
damageBase = 2000
damageVariance = 1
damageThreshold = 10
shieldCrewModifier = 0.2
hullCrewModifier = 0.1
lifeSpan = 10.0f
shotSpeed = 40
Sprite = "klingsuper"
shotColor = 227
repulsionForce = 40.0f
Radius = 1.0
spriteDuration = 1.0
waveArc = 90
waveLength = 110
amplitude = 10
frequency = 10
waveSpeed = 10
rays = 9
segments = 30
spreadSpeed = 30
specialValue = 20

The klingsuper sprite is properly coded and the wsuperkl.tga and wksuperw.tga textures are in the texture folder. I even added the sound file from grwave.odf.

Can we see the crash log?

Yep.

Ah, woops, seems I missed the obvious - you are missing the Wrwave.odf - that's a hardcoded reference for the RepulsionWave

Thanks! You should probably add that to the Guide's repulsionwave entry.

Yes, I'm editing the reference now - I didn't test that carefully the last time I went over that Ordnance and so made a number of errors.
