[Halo 2] Very weird problem...

Ok, I changed the spectre turret's trigger ID to 1 (semi-auto) and went to go test it out. I test it and it works fine. Then I pull out my plasma rifle and pull the trigger. It only fires once...."Ok" I thought to myself, "I might have accidentally changed the PR's trigger ID also". So I go to open h2x and I find that the BPR and the PR have been changed to 1. So I was like ok whatever, and changed it back to 0 (auto). I go back in game, pick up a PR and shoot it. It works fine. I go back in the Spectre turret and fire it.....it's fully auto. WTF. I re-open h2x and found that if I change the PR's trigger ID, for some reason, it'll change the BPR's and the Spectre turret's. And the other way around also. So I looked at it in Entity, and it does the same thing. Is it supposed to do this? And can someone tell me how to fix it? Thanks.

Thanks.

*Note this is a single player map.

I think its because they fire the same bullet. Try duplicating the bullet and make the Plasma Rifle shoot the Duplciated one. Or Vice Versa.

Well, they are the same color, same length, and they look like they go at the same speed. :wink:

Nope, the spectre has it's own projectile.

maybe you swapped the spectre's meta with the PR and whenever you edit one of the 2, they both make the same exact changes.

swap the spectre's projectile meta with a different projectile's meta that you wont be using.

The Plasma Rifle and the Spectre Turret both share the same trigger meta. They did that to save space in the map. To fix it you need to duplicate the one that you are editing and forget about the original one.

Try doing jsut a whole new map and seei f it does the same thing. If it does it right, you know its your map with the problem.
