Where is the jerky code?

[keen]

Okay, so i thought I'd look to see if i could improve the jerky code for fun. But, I'm having trouble finding it. Is this some it in GameObject.cpp??

////////////////////////////////////////////

cString::GetStringVec(sSubTypes,pObject->mAttractProps.mvSubtypes,NULL);

pObject->mAttractProps.mbIsEaten = cString::ToBool(pGameElem->Attribute("AttractIsEaten"),false);
pObject->mAttractProps.mfEatLength = cString::ToFloat(pGameElem->Attribute("AttractEatLength"),0);

If it is the code that controls the "attraction" to the meat/jerky, could you please explain in more detail how it works? If it's not, could you please explain what it does, and where to find the jerky/meat/food code? Thanks.

Try looking in the entity file of the Jerky. It should be in redist/models some where. That will give you the properties and specifics of the Jerky. If you want to change how a dog reacts to it, look through the Dog's STATE_EAT code.
