Pretty big touch function eh :) now we gotta spawn this babby and were almost home

local entity missile;

sound (self,CHAN_WEAPON,"weapons/woosh.wav",1,ATTN_NORM); // get a woosh noise // add it to qucke\mypatch\sounds\weapons (precache)

makevectors (self.v_angle); // shoot it forward the way yer facing

missile.velocity = aim (self,10000);

missile.angles = vectoangles (missile.velocity);

missile.velocity = (missile.velocity * 600); // speeds etc...

missile.touch = AxeTouch; // if it hits call the touch func

missile.nextthink = (time + 600); // if it is flyin fer 10 mins

missile.think = SUB_Remove; // get rid of it :)

setmodel (missile,"progs/throwaxe.mdl"); // preache this new model

setsize (missile,VEC_ORIGIN,VEC_ORIGIN);

setorigin (missile,((self.origin + (v_forward * 2)) + '0 0 16')); // location of first spawnin

missile.avelocity = '-500 0 0';

missile.num_bounces = 1; // set the bounce level

};

OK, as you can see 'num_bounces' is a new .float, so open up defs.qc, scroll to the bottom...

add .float num_bounces;

Right. Now we actually have to have a weapon that will shoot this. I will change the shotgun, you do this to whatever. Open up weapons.qc and go down to 'player weapon use'.

The first lot here shows the weapon model used for the weapon and the ammo. Since i cant figure out how to have a no ammo weapon (please tell me) we will leave it to show the ammo as shells, you wont loose any, dont worry :)

find the IT_SHOTGUN (shotgun) bit and change the model from "progs/v_shot.mdl" to "progs/v_axe.mdl", this will give it an axe model.

Just before w_attack you will se some empty voids such as 'void() player_rocket1;' at the end of these add 'void() W_ThrowAxe;'

This will let it know that we intend to define the axe throw function later on, but we want to talk about it now :)

Keep going to w_attack and change yer shotgun to this...

else if (self.weapon == IT_SHOTGUN)

{

player_axe1 (); // others will see your model chuck an axe

W_ThrowAxe (); // throw an axe

self.attack_finished = time + 0.75; // time between shots (change it if u like)

}
