[WEAPON] Incendiary Grenade
« on: July 06, 2014, 08:27:54 am »
Here's my first contribution to this wonderful community - Incendiary grenade.
Why can we burn everything with rockets, cannon rounds, autocannons, but not with grenades? Not anymore!

Includes: Ruleset (duh), handobj sprites, floorobj sprite, UFOpedia entry.
ENG, RUS and UKR translation.

UPD: Alternative graphics, single HANDOB spritesheet instead of 8 separate sprites. HANDOB id changed.

Damn it! I was just making one of these. :P

Your graphic looks better than mine, though, I just took the smoke grenade and puked some red stripes over it.

This has actually been done before:
https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php?topic=1245.msg11243#msg11243
It uses the original incendiary grenade sprite, which looks to have been dummied out before game release, but the file is still on the original sheet.

Having said that, there's nothing wrong with making a new version. Also, I think power 90 is better than the original 60, which seems kinda weak.

I'm getting this (see attached image(with your mod -
Currently using latest nightly builds. Same problem in list of inventory, showing code name rather than actual name.
I am trying to figure out why?

Recruit69, whatever language you are using for your game, it's not supported by the mod.

For example, if the mod has English en-US but it's missing English en-GB, and you are using English en-GB, then you won't have the strings; they are substituted by the general flag WHICH_LOOKS_LIKE_THIS.

The solution is to add the missing language version to the ruleset.

That makes sense! Thanks for this.
I've made changes to ruleset and it works now! Will bear this in mind if i have the same issue with other mods.

Don't think this mod is compatible with Terran Weapons mod.  I just saw a Sectoid with a wasp in his hand.  :)

I'm pretty sure the culprit is this:

Code: [Select]
  - type: HANDOB.PCK
    files:
      105: Resources/Inc_grenade/HandOb_Incgrenade/

105 is not a valid number for starting a handob, since it's not a beginning of an 8-part cycle. Valid numbers are: 0, 8, 16,24 etc. 105 is not divisible per 8, so it can't be right. Try changing it to 128 for example.

Yet, once again, you are correct.

Changing the value to 128 certainly made the "wasp" disappear! Thanks!
