Disabling perks

[Sammy]

Hello

After searching the X4 configs and scripts it doesnt look like there is a way to disable perks based on class, like X5 and OW does. Have I missed it? Or, if it is not present is there a relatively painless way to add it in?

Thx.

look in the weaponcontrol.cfg

Yes those are the global perk controls for all classes. However I'm looking for a way that will allow disabling for specific classes. Say for example disabling the claymore perk for assault but leaving it for heavy gunner. Both World at War - X5  and Open Warfare have the ability to do this and I am pretty sure I have narrowed down the code in OW that handles it. But it also looks to rely heavily on things in other parts of its code in other files and its not just a simple cut/paste/recompile. I was hoping that perhaps the ability could be added in without too much trouble into a preexisting script or spending too much time integrating/recoding.

Ex: set perk_assault_allow_specialty_parabolic "1" (from OW config+script)

It needs more testing to make sure it all works correctly and that there are no bugs but I kludged the relevant OW code for class specific perks into the modwarfare file and it seems to do the trick.
