Hi there, im working on a research project for a university using ut2004.

I was wondering if there was a way to identify if a human player has picked up a weapon or ammo, basically some kind of pickup?

Also if there a way to identify if the player has killed or been killed and output this to a log file?

One solution is to extend existing Pickups and Weapons and have them output to log or send a message to another object/actor. You can then use a Mutator to swap standard items with the ones you've created.

In UT2004's equivalent of the Mutator class (hope Wormbo doesn't fault me for this ^^) there should be a function that explicitely does this. Something like PreventDeath() perhaps ? The UnrealWiki should have something to say on the topic.
