As far as I know, you probably have to copy the zombiemode_powerups.gsc into your mod. then you would have to edit the script to add a model, fx, and to give you the weapon, and also add the powerup itself. You are also going to need and image for the drop when you get it, just like double points and insta kill. You will also need the model. i do not know how to script so you'll have to go to someone else for that.

I thougth that you would like to only have the DG for 30s lol Do you get your old weapons back after the drop finished?

So if you take the drop you would like to replace your current weapon for the DG for the rest of the game? I'm a bit confused :o
No man,the death machine gives you a minigu(or a DG2) but you can alternate to your old weapons,and when the powerup finish you get your weapons back.And that's is not happening in my map,I mean,the DG2 "steal" your guns

open dlc3_code.gsc and find the function include_powerups() and add this to it
Code Snippet
Plaintext
include_powerup( "dg" );
We have a problem here: When the powerup finishes, it doesn't return your original weapons

the "lightning Bolt" drop as its "actually" known, doesnt act that way
You keep it until it runs out of ammo, and the shader fades depending on how much ammo you have - it does not just last 30 seconds

Code Snippet
Plaintext
dg_drop( drop_item, player_won ) { primaryWeapons = self GetWeaponsListPrimaries(); for( i = 0; i < primaryWeapons.size; i++ ) { self TakeWeapon( primaryWeapons[i] ); } self giveWeapon( "tesla_gun" ); self switchToWeapon( "tesla_gun" ); self GiveMaxAmmo( "tesla_gun" ); wait (30); self TakeWeapon("tesla_gun"); for( i = 0; i < primaryWeapons.size; i++ ) // you forgot this for() loop { self giveWeapon(primaryWeapons[i]); } }
Some things can go wrong with this, like if you pick up a second drop you will end up with the Tesla gun. Or if you pick it up while drinking a perk you will lose your guns.. Stuff like that

He's saying he wants it to be like a normal Death Machine drop, where it lasts for 30 seconds and then when it finishes it gives your guns back. The problem is that it doesn't give your weapons back when it finishes.

Thanks for this Blunt!I'm going to test it and see if the bugs you mentioned really happen.Just a question:Is there a way to add a shader to this powerup?

Easiest way would be taking offsets from BO1 and do setShader on that location, I can take a look at it tomorrow
