Does getweaponhasscope not work...

[Septfox]

Well basically, this is what I've got:

set weapon to player.getequippedobject 5

if ( player.getweaponanimtype < 4 || weapon.getweaponhasscope == 1)	;see if the player is either unarmed, using a melee weapon or a weapon with a scope
	return		;if so, there's no need for switching 
	
endif

The first condition is working fine. The second doesn't seem to be doing anything at all. As far as I know, I have everything set up right; "weapon" is declared as a reference up top, getequippedobject should be storing the ID of it, then getweaponhasscope should be checking it.

 

But it isn't. When I equip a scoped weapon in-game, the script keeps merrily running instead of restarting like it should. I did try removing the first condition in case...er well, just to check, with the same results.

 

Am I making some incredibly stupid mistake here? :\

Further, is there a more direct method of checking the equipped weapon for a scope?

Are you using Fallout Script Extender?

weapon is not a reference, it's a base form. So you have to use getweaponhasscope weapon instead of weapon.getweaponhasscope

Of course, other vital functions of my script depend on it. Vanilla script functions are so...limited in some ways.

Y'know, I probably would have ended up writing some kind of multiple-line-spanning workaround for this, JUST because I was being an idiot. I was storing it as a reference, so it seemed perfectly logical to me to USE it like a reference. Durr.

Well, adding that when I get home should bring my script to 98% functional, thank you for figuring it out for me. Now all I need to do is figure out a way to remove the crosshair on demand. While I have your attention, I don't suppose either of you know how to do that?
