Melee System
Shattered Ties melee system is based on UDK's trace function.
code snippet
UTPawn(Instigator).CurrentWeaponAttachment.Mesh.GetSocketWorldLocationAndRotation ('Hilt', traceStart);
UTPawn(Instigator).CurrentWeaponAttachment.Mesh.GetSocketWorldLocationAndRotation('meleesocket', traceEnd);
//Instigator.drawdebugline(traceStart, traceEnd, 255,0,0);
//trace from weaponpoint to meleesocket
Foreach TraceActors(class'actor', traced, hitlocation, hitnormal, traceEnd, traceStart, vect(10,10,10))
{
//WorldInfo.Game.Broadcast(self,'traceStart');
if(traced != Owner && Pawn(traced) != none) //If traced actor isn't you and a pawn.
{
hitpawn = Pawn(traced);
//WorldInfo.MyEmitterPool.SpawnEmitter(Blood, hitlocation, rotator(-hitnormal),);
hitpawn.TakeDamage(MeleeDmg, Pawn(Owner).Controller/*Controller(traced)*/, hitlocation, Normal(//WorldInfo.MyEmitterPool.SpawnEmitter(Blood, hitlocation, rotator(-hitnormal),);
hitpawn.TakeDamage(MeleeDmg, Pawn(Owner).Controller/*Controller(traced)*/, hitlocation, Normal((Traced.Location - Owner.Location))*meleedamagemomentum, class'DmgType_Crushed',hitInfo,Owner);
WorldInfo.MyEmitterPool.SpawnEmitter(Blood,Hitlocation,, Traced,);
code snippet end
Basically what this does is that a line is traced between the "hilt" and "meleesocket" (as seen in the above picture)

Weapons are attached to the "WeaponPoint" socket.
XP system
code snippet
public function GiveXP(int amount)
{
//local ActionPawn Action;
//Action=ActionPawn(Owner);
XP += amount;
CalculateLevelProgress();
while (XPGatheredForNextLevel >= XPRequiredForNextLevel && Level < MAX_LEVEL)
{
Level++;
Pawn.HealthMax+=10*Level;
Pawn.Health=Pawn.HealthMax;
Pawn.DamageScaling+=0.3;
ActionPawn(Owner).RegenAmount+=2.0;
PlaySound(SoundCue'MyPackage.XPSound',,,,,);
// Recalculate level progress after leveling up
CalculateLevelProgress();
}
}
code snippet end
Each mob yields a different xp amount when they are killed.
