Ok, so I decided to create my own vehicle class, CPropCGjeep. It
derives from CPropVehicleDriveable on the server side, and
C_PropVehicleDriveable on the client side. I did this using an #ifdef
CLIENT_DLL like is shown many times in the code.
#include "cbase.h"
#ifdef CLIENT_DLL
#include "c_prop_vehicle.h"
#include "c_baseplayer.h"
#define CPropCGjeep C_PropCGjeep
#define CPropVehicleDriveable C_PropVehicleDriveable
#else
#include "vehicle_base.h"
#include "baseplayer.h"
#endif
#include "movevars_shared.h"
#include "view.h"
#include "flashlighteffect.h"
#include "c_te_effect_dispatch.h"
#include "CBaseVehicles.h"
However, when I declare this:
IMPLEMENT_NETWORKCLASS_ALIASED( CPropCGjeep, DT_PropCGjeep )
The compiler gives me the error:
error C2653: 'C_CPropCGjeep' : is not a class or namespace name
Why would the preprocessor be inserting that extra C when I clarly
have CPropCGJeep being changed to C_PropCGjeep?
Also, am I going about this the right way? Will I be able to derive
that shared class from 2 completely different classes
(CPropVehicleDriveable, C_PropVehicleDriveable) and still have it
'sync' up?
