 Jetpack to Jump? Hello, I'm attempting to make an actor with a jetpack that is possible to shoot off, and have explode. The problem I face as of yet is that my actor, when the jetpack is removed, is completely unable to even simply jump, and as such can't really get around any more. I was wondering if it would be possible to have a "jump" (jetpack) replace the normal one when the normal one is destroyed.

Re: Jetpack to Jump? YOu'd have to do some sort of magic involving Lua to get them to jump after that sort of ordeal.

Re: Jetpack to Jump? That shouldn't be so hard, I just need to attach a script to the jetpack to find and then set the sharpness of the Actor wearing it, 1 sharpness for jetpack attached, 2 for not attached, and then attach a script to the actor to switch between the two... I just can't figure out specifics. Is it even possible to set jetpacks with Lua?

Re: Jetpack to Jump? Have a script on the actor that checks the actor's attached parts. If the jetpack is not found, make the actor do a jump via velocity change in the script whenever the jump key is pressed.

Re: Jetpack to Jump? That would work, and on a completely unrelated note, is it also possible to check for the sharpness of an object, say the head, of an actor?

Re: Jetpack to Jump? Yes, it is. Just have the pointer to the actor and then the Sharpness variable.
