Lot's of planing, writing and disscution have gone in to the mod but other then basic coop against Half Life 2 enemies, not much code have been done. I have added two new weapons sure but any monkey could do that so no after a comment about "getting the grappling hook" to work i have started on the code. Some basics are done and the Crossbow is used as a base. The file have been split up into Server, Client and Hook code makeing easier to watch over, a rope is connected between the hook and the player shooting it at the moment. Nothing advanced no physics. But i will keep up the work. The plan how it will work at the moment is as follows. One click will fire the hook. When it hit something it connects. Makeing a permanent rope between the player and the hit target. Holding down the primary shoot button with the hookbow equiped will pull you up, secondary will pull you down. Jump will remove the rope and your are free to move around again. When you are on the rope you are free to change weapons. That will allow you to hook the rope into the roof. Pull yourself up and hang there, shooting down if you want to.
Once the Grappling hook is finnsihed i will feel ok about releasing the pre alpha. That is if i get a map up and running, as I am no mapper.
Thats all for this newspost.
woho!
