[Mutator]Give Sniper

[NodSaibot]

The point of this mutator is when people type 'mutate sniper' or 'mutate SNIPER' into the command line, it will award them with a sniper. I know this has no real value, but it's just practice. There is only one problem, it won't compile due to an error in the 6th line. Apparently this has something to do with the code of Rx_InventoryManager and there is nothing I can do about it right now. Waiting for some more info from the devs.

Error	9	Bad or missing expression after '&&': 'Rx_InventoryManager'	C:\Rx_SDK\Rx_SDK_March_22_2015\Development\Src\CZ_BuySniper\Classes\CZ_BuySniper.uc	6	1	RenXMP

		Rx_InventoryManager(Sender.Pawn.InvManager).AddWeaponOfClass(class'Rx_Weapon_SniperRifle_Nod',CLASS_PRIMARY);

Super.Mutate(MutateString, Sender);

Did you happen to put the script BEFORE it compiles RenX's own?

Okay, I figured out what the issue was. It seems like "Rx_InventoryManager.AddWeaponOfClass" does a check to make sure you're "allowed" to have that weapon before adding it to your inventory. It does that by seeing if the class has the weapon in it's defaults, but because this is an extra weapon, it wont, so the add will fail.

Not to worry tho, we can look at the "AddWeaponOfClass" function, and just do the same behaviour, but inside of our mutator, and without the check to see if you're "allowed" to have the weapon.

That would look like this:

class Rx_Mutator_GiveSniper extends UTMutator;

function Mutate(string MutateString, PlayerController Sender)
{
local Rx_InventoryManager InvManager;
local class WeaponClass;

WeaponClass = class'Rx_Weapon_SniperRifle_Nod';
InvManager = Rx_InventoryManager(Sender.Pawn.InvManager);

   if (MutateString ~= "sniper" && InvManager != none)
   {
	if (InvManager.PrimaryWeapons.Find(WeaponClass) < 0) // Make sure it isn't in there already.
		InvManager.PrimaryWeapons.AddItem(WeaponClass);

	if(InvManager.FindInventoryType(WeaponClass) != None) 
	{
		InvManager.SetCurrentWeapon(Rx_Weapon(InvManager.FindInventoryType(WeaponClass)));
	}
	else
	{
		InvManager.SetCurrentWeapon(Rx_Weapon(InvManager.CreateInventory(WeaponClass, false)));
	}

	Rx_Pawn(Owner).RefreshBackWeapons();			
   }

   Super.Mutate(MutateString, Sender);
}

And yea, that error looks like it doesn't know what Rx_InventoryManager is, so double check your package is compiling after RenX_Game.

This is the compiled scripts area. These are all I see

[NodSaibot]

Apparently it can't find RenX_RCam or RenX_Game in the compiled scripts area, and it's stopping the compilation.

Don't know if this is related, but I ran frontend as admin and it worked

Check your +EditPackages or +ModEditPackages. If you put your mutator before RenX's that would definitely result compiler error
