Ok, I did some playing around with the armor.gob patch to see if I could understand how to add modifications to the jetpack (no I wont distribute your original armor.gob..just trying some things) :D
I added 2 cogs and added appropriate setinv flags set to 0 in the other cogs that were already there:
jp_bck.cog-is defined as SetInv(player,119,1 for on, 0 for off)
jp_hvr.cog-is set as 116,117,118,119 all set to 1
I modified items.dat to add the things 119 and 120 appropriately
I modified the cogstrings.uni and stuff to add bindings for the commands.
when I loaded up the game, the up down and forward worked, the back and hover didnt do anything.
was 119 and 120 not valid for the item bins? nothing seemed to be listed there.
after going back and looking deeper, after an unsucessful test, I saw something about having to set the extra bindings with a flag of 0x100, so I went back and added that to the bins.
Still nothing.
I know the cogs were fine..flawless in fact.
but I think the items.dat and/or the cogstrings.uni have something that I am not understanding.
Please help
