-- npc_on_choose_weapon callback if incorrectly used will break NPCs
|
|
-- this example has the following features:
|
|
------ It works
|
|
------ It it immediately returns with not effects if NPC is not a target of this script (performance optimization)
|
|
------ It only scans NPC inventories at a set interval not every frame (performance optimization)
|
|
------ It schedules the inventory scans of each NPC in a manner that greatly reduces the likelihood of multiple scans happening in the same frame
|
|
------ Cache's the chosen weapon to maintain the npc using the selected weapon between update cycles.
|
|
------ Changes flags.gun_id only when this script has something to change it to.
|
|
------ Can be easily edited to any purpose by editing the first two functions
