Dma/Developer Journal

During school assignments, I have been working on several projects.

• dma/JetPack - This will someday be a jet pack that works flawlessly in network play.
• dma/MutMultiJump - This lets the server admin set the number of multijumps to allow.
• More to come if I get the time.

If you want to find the superclass of a class at runtime, you can try this:

static final function class FindSuperClass(class C) {
    local State obj;
    local Class X;
    local array< class > SuperClasses;
    local Class BestClass;
    local int i;

    foreach C.AllObjects(class'State', obj) {
        X = Class(obj);
        if ((X != None) && (X != C) && ClassIsChildOf(C, X)) {
            SuperClasses[SuperClasses.Length] = X;
        }
    }
    BestClass = class'Object';

    for (i=0; i<SuperClasses.Length; i++) {
        if (ClassIsChildOf(SuperClasses[i], BestClass)) {
            BestClass = SuperClasses[i];
        }
    }

    return BestClass;
}

Foxpaw: I'm curious, why does the first loop only look for things that are subclasses of "state?"
