I'll see what I can do about that. Always wanted to make one.

i have a hud texture for it and a model of the crossbow if i didnt accidentally remove it

4. t=s/v <=> s=tv. You can set the time_to_live in a projectile, it is 3.0 seconds if you leave it undefined. The vanilla bullets use 1 second.

Grenade throwing is hardcoded in throw logic. It's currently using all sorts of control variables like a throw distance limit to consider throwing in a curve or just directly to target, throwing speed for the curved throw and direct throw, target max height for the curve middle point to get the direction and magnitude for the throw, max throw speed to cap it, final randomization, and a few helper factors that just seem to help it all function better.

I will expose these once the game needs to support multiple throwables, and it will.

4 is now clear to me. Thanks again!

About the grenade throwing, will it be modable at any point, and is it possible to make a gun have falloff like it (for the grenade launcher)?

AT Grenade?

I believe so.

Already converting the sounds for it.

Another question!
Is it possible to make more than one "bullet" class projectiles usable at once. At this moment it gives me a ctd.

If by that you mean to shoot different types of bullets from the same weapon, it's not supported.

No. By that I mean the arrow projectile for my crossbow does not want to work. I can either have it be grenade class or have the model.

I'm not sure I understand. "I can either have it be grenade class or have the model" -- does that mean that if you make it as grenade class, it doesn't have a model, and that if you make it as a bullet class, it has the model?

From that it seems you want to make it as grenade class, but it doesn't have the model then. I think that should work just fine, there are rockets, mortars and hand grenades which are using a model just fine with grenade class logic.

If I understood you incorrectly, so that you actually meant that if you make it as a bullet, the model doesn't work then, then I'm equally confused. If I hack bullet.projectile with <model mesh_filename="grenade.xml" /> I can clearly see every bullet having the grenade model with it just fine.

Can you clarify what is the issue actually?

You understood me incorrectly. Maybe it is a problem with the model.
