Need Help With Cinematic Scripting

[seanthelawn]

Is it possible to give a unit a weapon using the unit_has_weapon command?

I don't have my scripting bible at hand, but I think that command is used to check if the specified unit has a certain weapon (which would be specified using the correct syntax).

So no, I don't think you can give a unit a weapon like that. As far as I know, you can't actually "change" the weapon of a unit live. You'd need another biped for that, and switch them.

I may be wrong though, perhaps you can indeed switch a unit's weapons.

Just thinking off the top of my memory, that is a boolean.

From the Halo Script Bible:


(unit_has_weapon <unit> <object_definition>)

returns TRUE if the <unit> has <object> as a weapon, FALSE otherwise



So it is not possible to give a unit a weapon using that command.

Ok thanks guys, I figured out another way to do it now.
