Post Quick lua question.
Is it possible to add a pie menu option that adds a specific weapon to the actor's inventory when pressed, I've been trying to do this for a little while with no success.

Thanks in advance.

This is possible, yes.

Coalition.rte/Actors/Blast Runner/

has an example of a pie menu button on an actor. You can edit the BlastRunner.ini to make the actor usable in-game by changing Buyable = 0 to 1, if you want to play around with it.

The code that adds the pie menu button to the actor -

Code:
   AddPieSlice = Slice
      Description = Detonate
      Direction = 2
      Icon = Icon
         PresetName = Blast Runner Detonate
         FrameCount = 2
         BitmapFile = ContentFile
            FilePath = Coalition.rte/Devices/Sprites/PieIcons/IconDetonate.bmp
      ScriptPath = Coalition.rte/Actors/Blast Runner/BlastRunnerPie.lua
      FunctionName = BlastRunnerDetonateCall


If you want to add an item to an actor's inventory, have something like this in your lua script:

Code:
      local item = CreateHDFirearm("Heavy Digger");
      actor:AddInventoryItem(item);
