Trying To Make New Weapon Fire-modes And Failing Epicly At It.
DiDiT:
I'v been trying to add a new 'charged fire' mode to the laser weapons, but i cant seem to do it. It never shows up in game.
Here's my code:

--- End code ---
What am I doing wrong? Am I missing something out? is there another file I need to edit?
Also, Any pointers on my attempt at a mod?
since I cant get it working, I cant test it out, so I don't know if my charged fire-mode's are WAY too powerful or not.
EDIT:
also, while I would have posted this thread in a coding related section of the forum, I intend to edit this post and put up my weapon 'mods' here under a new topic title.
Destructavator:
Hmmm..., From what I know from playing with firedefs in the past I don't see anything that jumps out at me right off the bat as being wrong or improperly formatted...
Does the console report any strange errors in the battlescape?
Also, if you unpacked the pk3 file did you remove the pk3 (or rename it to some extension such as ".bak" or ".old" or whatever) so the game wouldn't find the .ufo in more than one place resulting in a conflict?
The game reads pk3 files in a specific order, and also gives priority IIRC to un-zipped files over pk3 files it finds on startup. If it finds duplicates, it makes a decision as to which version of a file to use and only uses one.
Mattn:
please post a diff - easier to look at the changes then
DiDiT:
a Diff? I don't know you mean. do you mean, like, a copy of the file it's self?
edit:
Meh, I'v attached a 7zipped copy of the ufo anyway.
edit 2:
just looked Diff up, and its Way over my head. I was never good at svn stuff. Bah...
Mattn:
attached is a diff
btw. a diff is not svn only.
