[Help] Pickup Override

[matttthias]

it looks like the function ServerWeaponLocked() is too slow because the checking is already finished before this function is done with its work...
any solution for this would be awesome

class NewGameRules extends GameRules;

function PostBeginPlay()
{
    if( Level.Game.GameRulesModifiers==None )
        Level.Game.GameRulesModifiers = Self;
    else Level.Game.GameRulesModifiers.AddGameRules(Self);
}

function AddGameRules(GameRules GR)
{
    if ( GR!=Self )
        Super.AddGameRules(GR);
}

function bool OverridePickupQuery(Pawn Other, Pickup item, out byte bAllowPickup)
{
    local bool bResult;

    if ( NextGameRules != None )
        bResult = NextGameRules.OverridePickupQuery(Other, item, bAllowPickup);

    if ( !bResult || bAllowPickup == 1 )
    {
        bAllowPickup = 0;
        NewPlayerController(Other.Controller).UnlockWeapon();
        bResult = NewPlayerController(Other.Controller).bWeaponLocked;
    }
    return bResult;
}

class NewPlayerController extends KFPlayerController;

var bool bWeaponLocked;

replication
{
    reliable if( Role==ROLE_Authority && bNetOwner)
        IsPickupable; //cut out unimportant stuff but cant change the replication of this for some reason
        
    reliable if ( Role < ROLE_Authority )
        ServerWeaponLocked;
}

simulated function IsPickupable()
{
    if(Something Happens)
        bWeaponLocked = false;
    else
        bWeaponLocked = false;
    ServerWeaponLocked(bWeaponLocked);
}

function ServerWeaponLocked(bool bLocked)
{
    bWeaponLocked = bLocked;
}

You have to do the checks on start of game since client connects and build up an array of classes that you can or can't pickup, there is no other reasonable way.
