Acquiring Hack chance

[RivvaDead]

Edit: SOLVED!

Thanks to 'hairlessorphan' suggestion here's the code:

local UIHackingScreen HackingScreen;
local float HackChance;

HackingScreen = UIHackingScreen(`SCREENSTACK.GetScreen(class'UIHackingScreen'));

HackChance = HackingScreen.GetHackChance(HackingScreen.SelectedHackRewardOption);

Hi,

 

I'm making a mod that develops soldier skills on the battlefield during combat a la Jagged Alliance style (and probably many other games like that).

I'm gonna publish the mod tommorow, however I've decided to expand its functionality.

Give a bonus for challenging feats like hiting an enemy with a small chance and so on.

 

Unfortunately for that I need to access the hack percentage chance.

I have the percentage for attacks but when I check the same variables within hacking ability i get 0 in all integers.

 

Does anyone know where is the hack chance located?

 

Any help appreciated,

Thanks!

Please... please... PLEASE! I beg you... add +5 points to the hack skill on all successful hacks performed by all soldiers, including console ones. The current state of hacking is a disaster and while it would be nice to gain a small bonus for low hit % shots but aren't there some mechanics similar to that already in place? Invisible %?

There are two classes I can point you to.

 

The first is where the hacking roll is initiated. That's UIHackingScreen.uc.

 

There's a call stack that eventually leads to where the roll is actually made. That's X2AbilityToHitCalc_Hacking.uc. This class also has the static functions to calculate relevant bonuses.

 

Depending on how you want to implement your bonus, it'll be somewhere between these two classes.

If I could have done it I would have a lot time ago but I can assure you I can't do that.

What?

 

That wasn't for you, that was for the OP. Because, you know, this is his thread. Not yours.

I've seen those classes previously but thought that there was a way to get hack chance more easily. Turns out it's actually very simple with UIHackingScreen.uc!

 

Thanks to your encouragement I've played around with it and got it, so THANKS :D!

I've also updated the first post with the code for anyone else.

 

Thanks again!
