Force Players to have only 2 Weapons

[fr blood]

Hi there, I'm looking for a way to force player to have only 2 weapons, like it is in other popular FPS games, I really don't know how it's possible, so if any of you got an idea, send it here, thanks !

Contra Doom does this in a similar fashion to how Contra III handled its 2-weapon system, so you could try looking at it or asking Beed28 how he did it. Fair warning though, it's the code is fairly large.

Or check WhoDunIt. It uses DropWeapon and PickWeapon states to check if Player has fake item "AlreadyGotAweapon"

Well it depends on what you mean by two weapons. Is it like WDI where the player has to drop his weapon to pick another one up? Or does a weapon automatically get taken away when you pick up a new one?

Let me explain, we've got the Doom 2 Armory, by 2 weapons I mean that I would like the player being able to carry only 2 of them (like SSG + Chaingun or Plasmagun + Rocket Launcher or Pistol + Chainsaw), and yes he could switch weapon by dropping one of them on the floor.

In that case you'd have to do what WDI does as Zeberpal suggested.

I checked all mode that used weapons with that way, and of course it would use too much coding for the simple mode I'm doing, I prefer to forgot it, thanks for the help.
