I've found a tutorial for the shotgun's kickback, i tried but, of course, i failed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It say:

Open up the weapons.qc file and add this function just under the prototypes:


float(float numb) kickback
{
local float kick;
kick = numb * -1; // reverse it
kick = kick * random(); // randomise it, by multiplying it by a random number from 0 to 1
if (kick > -5) kick = -5; // changes the number if its too small
return kick;
}

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in my weapon.qc I have:

};

void (float numb) kickback =
{
local float kick;

kick = (numb * CONTENT_EMPTY);
kick = (kick * random ());
if ((kick > CONTENT_LAVA))
{
kick = CONTENT_LAVA;
}
};

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

how do i have to mix them?

thank you

I haven't the foggiest how that tutorial is laid out but...

If it's intended to affect your punchangle, then make sure it matches the tutorial, then in w_fireshotgun put:

self.punchangle_x = kickback(whatever amount of kickback you want);

If, on the other hand it actually affects your velocity, that's a whole 'nother kettle of fish.
