metaldetector test

first test of fresh programmed metal detector test entity.
it's not perfect as you can see at the end: basically player can simply throw the weapons through or behind and collect them after the test :/
will see what i do against this method.
You can try adding material names for objects in the world. for example door - wood; desert eagle - metal, and make detector activate only on metal objects
the metaldetector asks for the playerentity which is passing it and steps trough his weapons, and give signal if a weapon if found.
reading out phyis material names is also possible but this is much more complicated, because it have be done with a thrown ray and getinstant hit.
bascically there is no real lua command to get the material out of a cgf.
ok, one hour work and it now first checks if its a player entity, if yes, "old" weapontable detection routine is called, if no, it gives a signal.
unfortunately it will now also react on wooden things thrown trough, but i think this is ok for now.
atlaest it gives now a signal if you throw your weapon trough, and that is what count.
you can now also throw a barrel through and it will trigger signal, which gives additional new tactical options :)
I think the best idea would be to make the gate react to the weapon and not only to the player. That means if a player would throw weapon through the metal detector it would beep anyway.
i will test if this is possible, theoretically it should not really care if its a player entity or any other entity.
the problem is, that then the contact code is not working, which automaticly activates the entity, so i have to update it every frame, but i will see.
Well that sucks, but if you can somehow make, it would be great.

That's OK, for now at least.
It's always great to have new tactical options.
Amazing work :D
thank you very much :)
