I'm scripting this new bo3 gobblegum in waw: Newtonian Negation it move zombies in air after their death and in game it seems that changing "phys_gravity" var from console it works very well, but changing it via script it doesn't works Code Snippet Plaintext Copy SetDvar( "phys_gravity", -1*GetDvarInt( "phys_gravity" ) ); how i can replicate this gobblegum effect in other ways?

I think people do this via animation, rather than dvar? If I understand you correctly. The zombies float upward?

yes i would like zombies float upward instead fall on ground after their deaths and i would try without animations first...
however i "fixed" it with this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

gum_zombie_gravity()
{

	gravity = GetDvarInt( "phys_gravity" );
	players = GetPlayers();
	for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++ )
		players[ i ] setClientDvar(  "phys_gravity" , -1*gravity );

	self waittill_any( "take_gumball", "end_gumball" , "force_end_gumball" ); // this is managed by others functions

	for(i = 0; i < players.size; i++ )
		players[ i ] setClientDvar(  "phys_gravity" , gravity );
}

but i think this dvar will affect other things that aren't zombies, then i tried using this function on every zombies:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

gum_zombie_gravity()
{
	zombies = getAiSpeciesArray( "axis", "all" );
	for( i = 0; i < zombies.size; i++ )
	{
		zombies[ i ] thread fly_on_death();
	}
}
fly_on_death()
{
	self waittill( "death" );
	self moveGravity( (0,0,1000), 5);
}

but zombies don't move
