Gameplay Questions.

I'm sure alot of you guys are smart, and know how Source works, so I have a question?

Is it possible for the player to use his weapon, once he presses the left mouse button the gun won't shoot, but once he lets the left mouse button go, the weapon will shoot. Is that possible?

And also, do you guys think its possible to sneak behind someones back and point the gun at the soldier, and make them put there hands up? (if you have played MGS then you know what I'm talking about)

Thanks alot.

Anything is possible with enough time effort and coding I suppose.

Ahh. Cheers. Anybody else with some knowledge if this is possible?

And also, after creating my own map, how do I make the map start as soon as I press New Game on the menu in the begining?

I've already created my own mod using the create a mod option, and now i've created a map within my own mod. Now how do you make the mod start as soon as you press New Game on the menu in the begining? (btw, I've said this also in the thread that has been stickied, Source SDK help thread)

Thanks.

Yeah, certainly is possible. Would require a little bit of work to figure out, as there's nothing in Source that currently does it. But its certainly doable. Probably be easier to have a -click- armed, -second click- shoot function, but that wouldn't be as good.

And yeah, getting NPCs to stick their hands up could be done. Not easily, though, but still, it's very feasable.

Ahh, thanks. Thats cool to hear, thanks for the info.

Is there anybody that could tell me how to make my map start when you select new game in the menu, instead of having to load the map using the console?

I'll ditch this thread after someone helps me out, or just gives me a run-down on how it works and I'll just figure it out myself.

Thanks alot.

Open the file yourmod\resource\gamemenu.res and change New Game lines to this:

"5"
{
"label" "New Game"
"command" "engine map MAP NAME"
"notmulti" "1"
