How to Add Change Under a Perk Machine

Interestingly enough Treyarch didn't include this already in the Beta even though the code is there. Follow these steps to add the missing pieces to get 100 points by crouching in front of a perk machine:

Step 1) Open your mapname.gsc. Example location: A:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Call of Duty Black Ops III\usermaps\zm_mapname\scripts\zm\zm_mapname.gsc

Underneath:

function main()
{

Add:

level zm_perks::spare_change();

Also at the top of your mapname.gsc add:

#using scripts\zm\_zm_perks;
#insert scripts\zm\_zm_perks.gsh;

Underneath:

#using scripts\zm\_zm_pack_a_punch;

Step 2) Press 'B' in Radiant to bring up the "Entity Browser", then drag a Trigger>multiple onto your map. Make it look like so in front of a machine:

Step 3) Give the Trigger Multiple the following KVP's by selecting the trigger and pressing 'N' in Radiant:

Step 4) Repeat as many times as necessary, then Link and Compile your map

Done!

As usual give me a shoutout for using my tutorials ;)

I added an extra instruction to step 1. It should work for you now

Also at the top of your mapname.gsc add:
#insert scripts\zm\_zm_perks.gsh;

gsh? I recommend checking the script next time.

You do realize .gsh's are a thing right?

I get an error everytime when loading my map after adding the scripts. Fast files missing or something like that. I have your extra perk powerup and it looks like that has a problem maybe. I honestly have no clue, I am new to scripting.

I'm using this & his powerups no issues, you had to have done something wrong.

YEP! I for sure F***** myself somehow, I get an error with that perk powerup no matter what now. I removed the perk change and still got the issue. I will look into it someother time in the future. Don't know how this even happened. :(

well for some reason I get an error for bottomless clip now after I took out the perk bottle for testing. Like what happened to everything???? My map is not going to be updated anymore I guess, there seems to be always an error with these powerups now. I am thinking the issue is that I didn't update my powerups yet becuase I see they are updated with new things.

You can start by posting the actual error your receiving. Saying it isnt working isnt enough for someone to help. I also suggest posting the error to the proper post. If you cant get time warp working post it in that topic

Quick question, how big does the trigger need to be? My first attempt doesnt give me points but the scripts loaded fine.

EDIT: Nevermind I got it working

just make sure the perk is always touching the ground with the trigger that's what causes that, or like 3arc & stamin up on SOE it won't give the points lol.

Hey, don't know if anyone can help, but I get 200pts everytime. Is there any way to get there to be just 100? could it be that being part of the prefab activates it twice? Sorry, Im new to modding.

It is possible they could have updated the prefab or you could have placed it twice?

That was my first thought. It turned out that the perk collision noise that I added gives it to me with out the trigger, at least for some perks. Thank you so much for the responce though, cheers for the tutorial as well! -I'll get you a coffee sometime soon ;D

could you make it where it randomizes the amount you get? Someone did this in waw, i can find the script if you need it. But it sounds pretty simple.

I just dont have scripting down yet. Ive attempted it twice but nothing. So i just scrapped it.

The functions that handle it are in _zm_perks.gsc, you could modify to work for your needs or copy the functions into a another gsc if you don't want to modify the perks one:

// Line 1708~ - Call of Duty Black Ops III\share\raw\scripts\zm\_zm_perks.gsc

function spare_change( str_trigger = "audio_bump_trigger", str_sound = "zmb_perks_bump_bottle" )
{
	// Check under the machines for change
	a_t_audio = GetEntArray( str_trigger, "targetname" );
	foreach( t_audio_bump in a_t_audio )
	{
		if ( t_audio_bump.script_sound === str_sound )
		{
			t_audio_bump thread check_for_change();
		}
	}
}

function check_for_change()//self = trigger
{
	self endon( "death" );
	
	while( true )
	{
		self waittill( "trigger", player );

		if ( player GetStance() == "prone" )
		{
			player zm_score::add_to_player_score( 100 );
			zm_utility::play_sound_at_pos( "purchase", player.origin );
			break;
		}

		wait 0.1;
	}
}

Since BO3 update last night(12/12/17) they broke most of your scripts..

"Perk change" will not work now and i get this from the buyable ending..

ChiefMustardo:

Does the bump sound no longer work as I hear no audio when bumping into the machine/trigger. It is the same size as shown and the spare change works however no bump sound.

Harry Bo21:

Don’t place a trigger - one is created in the script

there will be 2 instances of the change on each machine

+200 v +100

ChiefMustardo:

Ah much appreciated, Thanks Harry. I also noticed the bump sound is completely missing so I had an attempt at making my own. I'm sure it'll come out... great :'D
