A_SPosAttack

This page describes a function made for one of the natively supported games. These functions are made with very specific purpose and provide no flexibility, so using them in custom projects is not recommended. Authors are encouraged to use one of the more generalized functions in custom projects. For example: A_CustomBulletAttack.

Actor

void A_SPosAttack()

Usage

The attack of Doom's Shotgun Guy. This shoots three bullets and plays the sound "shotguy/attack".

It is equivalent of:

TNT1 A 0 bright A_StartSound("shotguy/attack", CHAN_WEAPON);
SPOS F 10 bright A_CustomBulletAttack(22.5, 0, 3, random[SPosAttack](1,5)*3, "BulletPuff", 0, CBAF_NORANDOM);

ZScript definition

	void A_SPosAttack()
	{
		if (target)
		{
			A_StartSound("shotguy/attack", CHAN_WEAPON);
			A_SPosAttackInternal();
		}
	}

	private void A_SPosAttackInternal()
	{
		if (target)
		{
			A_FaceTarget();
			double bangle = angle;
			double slope = AimLineAttack(bangle, MISSILERANGE);
		
			for (int i=0 ; i<3 ; i++)
			{
				double ang = bangle + Random2[SPosAttack]() * (22.5/256);
				int damage = Random[SPosAttack](1, 5) * 3;
				LineAttack(ang, MISSILERANGE, slope, damage, "Hitscan", "Bulletpuff");
			}
		}
    }
