Properties

Property group 'Vehicle'

bDrawDriverInTP

Type: bool

Whether to draw the driver when in 3rd person mode.

bDrawMeshInFP

Type: bool

Whether to draw the vehicle mesh when in 1st person mode.

bDriverCollideActors

Type: bool

"If driver is drawn in vehicle, is Driver.bCollideActors true?", asked the programmer. In fact, this variable is used nowhere else in UnrealScript.

bFPNoZFromCameraPitch

Type: bool

Ignore any vehicle-space Z due to FPCamViewOffset (so looking up and down doesn't change camera Z rel to vehicle)

bHighScoreKill

Type: bool

Vehicle is considered important, and awards 5 points upon destruction.

bHUDTrackVehicle

Type: bool

If true, Vehicle will be tracked on HUD. (This may be used if the vehicle is an Objective in Assault)

bRelativeExitPos

Type: bool

relative vector to vehicle?

Default value: True

BulletSounds

Type: array<Sound>

This array stores a row of sounds from which one is chosen randomly to play if the vehicle is hit by a bullet-type weapon. 16 sounds are set in the ONSVehicle class.

bZeroPCRotOnEntry

Type: bool

If true, set camera rotation to zero on entering vehicle. If false, set it to the vehicle rotation.

Default value: True

Default value: 16000

Rise

Events

Destroyed

simulated event Destroyed ()

Overrides: Pawn.Destroyed

Vehicle notifies the ParentFactory of it's death, deletes it's ShadowProjector and Controllers of auto turrets and removes itself from the Level.Game.VehicleList

DrivingStatusChanged

simulated event DrivingStatusChanged ()

Vehicle adjust it's bDropDetail value and enables the Tick if it's driven (or disables it if there is no driver anymore)

EncroachedBy

event EncroachedBy (Actor Other)

Overrides: Pawn.EncroachedBy

Overrides the super function with an empty one because vehicles can't get telefragged.

EncroachingOn

event bool EncroachingOn (Actor Other)

Overrides: Pawn.EncroachingOn

Called when the vehicle couldn't move a pawn out of it's way. If the pawn isn't a vehicle, then it will be crunched with a lot of damage, no matter if it's an enemy or not. The vehicle basically had no other choice.

IsVehicleEmpty

event bool IsVehicleEmpty ()

True if the vehicle has no driver.

KDriverLeave

event bool KDriverLeave (bool bForceLeave)

Called by the driver who wants to get out. The vehicle tries to find a good exit position (if it finds none, the driver will stay inside). Then it places the driver outside, assign the Controller which was on the vehicle to the driver, gives the driver his flag if he carried it inside the vehicle and pulls the brakes on the vehicle before the driver gets out.

LockOnWarning

event LockOnWarning ()

Displays a message for the player who tries to enter the locked vehicle. Repeats the message after a certain time if the player still doesn't get his hands off.

NeedsFlip

event bool NeedsFlip ()

True, if the vehicle lies on it's back. This also takes the gravity direction of the map into account.

NotifyEnemyLockedOn

event NotifyEnemyLockedOn ()

Sets bEnemyLockedOn to True.

NotifyEnemyLostLock

event NotifyEnemyLostLock ()

Sets bEnemyLockedOn to False.

PlayDying

simulated event PlayDying (class<DamageType> DamageType, Object.Vector HitLoc)

Overrides: Pawn.PlayDying

Empty.

PostBeginPlay

simulated event PostBeginPlay ()

Overrides: Pawn.PostBeginPlay

Assigns a shadow to the vehicle and sets a Controller if the vehicle is an auto turret.

PreBeginPlay

event PreBeginPlay ()

Overrides: Pawn.PreBeginPlay

Deletes the vehicle if no vehicles are allowed in the current gametype.

RanInto

event RanInto (Actor Other)

Overrides: Actor.RanInto

Called for encroaching actors which successfully moved the other actor out of the way. Will move the encroaching non-vehicle pawn out of the way at low speed or deal a lot of damage at higher speed.

SetAnimAction

simulated event SetAnimAction (name NewAction)

Overrides: Pawn.SetAnimAction

Calls the SetAnimAction of the driver and delegates the NewAction to it.

SetInitialState

simulated event SetInitialState ()

Overrides: Actor.SetInitialState

Disables Tick at the beginning.

SetWheelsScale

simulated event SetWheelsScale (float NewScale)

Sets the WheelScale. Obviously.

Stalled

simulated event Stalled ()

Sets bStalled to True if the vehicle is above the level's StallZ. A vehicle with bStalled can't apply acceleration any more.

TakeDamage

event TakeDamage (int Damage, Pawn instigatedBy, Object.Vector hitlocation, Object.Vector momentum, class<DamageType> damageType)

Overrides: Pawn.TakeDamage

Takes the vehicle's SpawnProtection into account and adjusts the caused damaged according to the damage type's VehicleDamageScaling and VehicleMomentumScaling. Also hurts the driver if that option is enables and kills or ejects him if the vehicle is killed.

TakeWaterDamage

event TakeWaterDamage (float DeltaTime)

Deals the WaterDamage to the vehicle. Also spawns some splashes if the vehicle is fast enough.

TeamChanged

simulated event TeamChanged ()

Empty.

UnStalled

simulated event UnStalled ()

Sets bStalled to False if the vehicle fell below the StallZ again.

UpdateEyeHeight

event UpdateEyeHeight (float DeltaTime)

Overrides: Pawn.UpdateEyeHeight

UpdateTiltForceFeedback

simulated event UpdateTiltForceFeedback ()

UsedBy

event UsedBy (Pawn user)

Overrides: Actor.UsedBy

Someone pressed the Use-button on this vehicle, try to let him drive if the driver seat isn't taken already.

VehicleLocked

event VehicleLocked (Pawn P)

Pawn tried to enter the vehicle, but it's locked. So call an event in C++ instead.

VerifyLock

event bool VerifyLock (Actor Aggressor, out Actor NewTarget)

Used to override locking actors. Returns who the aggressor really should lock on to.

Other instance functions
