PmcCon033

Overview

PmcCon033 is a “pop-up target” shooting-gallery course: armed with an infinite-ammo silver Pistol, the player clears four fixed firing points (3 targets each, framed in-HUD as “Portaits” — a typo preserved from the source), then a final wave of four painting-style targets that physically pop up by opening like a hinged door (Vehicle.OpenDoor/CloseDoor reused as a pop-up mechanism) before being destroyed. As with PmcCon032, the timer counts up from zero and the pass/fail check happens once at the end against a target time (1:30/1:00/0:45 by replay count).

Inheritance

• Inherits from: MrxTaskContract (a real resident/ module — see that page for the base class’s own behavior)
• Imports: MrxSubtitle, MrxMultiPageMenu, MrxUtil, MrxLayerManager, MrxShootingGallery, MrxVoSequence, MrxAchievements, MrxMusic, MrxState

Instance pattern

A native MrxTaskContract subclass sharing the shooting-gallery scaffolding described on PmcCon018. Two extra net events (NETEVENT_TARGETSDOWN/NETEVENT_TARGETSUP, 2/3) replicate the pop-up targets’ open/closed state to co-op clients.

Functions

LoadAssets(self, tSaveData) / Activated(self) / _SetupObjective(self)

Sets up the shooting-gallery HUD mode, strips weapons and arms both players with a silver Pistol, opens the four pop-up “painting” targets immediately (replicated via NETEVENT_TARGETSDOWN), scales the time-to-beat text by replay count, starts the count-up MrxTimer, and moves the player to the first firing point.

_DestroyObj1 … _DestroyObj6 / _MoveToPoint2 … _MoveToPoint5

Five fixed-point stages (3 targets each) followed by a sixth stage (_DestroyObj6) against the four pop-up targets, closing them again (Vehicle.CloseDoor, replicated via NETEVENT_TARGETSUP) before the objective is created. The final stage’s completion callback checks the course timer against nTimeLimit — under time completes via CompleteVO, over it cancels.

TempLoadLayers(self)

Removes the “pop down” layer and adds a “pop up” layer, then calls _DestroyObj6. No caller is visible anywhere in this file — the pop-up sequencing that actually runs appears to go through direct NETEVENT_TARGETSDOWN/UP toggling instead, making this function look unused.

PlayMusic(self, nTimeLimit) / _CountDownVOSetup(self, nTimeLimit) / CompleteVO(self) / FailureVO(self)

Music speed-up and scheduled countdown VO, matching the pattern in PmcCon032/034. FailureVO again appends an extra line if JetCon001 has been completed.

_SetupP1Weapons(self) / SetP2Weapons() / _MoveWeapons(...)

Strip real weapons and arm both players with the silver Pistol.

Complete(self) / Cancel(self) / Cleanup(self)

Restore real weapons, grant ACHIEVEMENT_GONE_SHOOTIN on Complete; Cleanup clears HUD slots, disables shooting-gallery mode, stops the course timer, and marks the mission layers for removal.

Events

• Event.ObjectDeath — per-target destruction across all six stages.
• Event.ObjectHibernation — the pop-up targets’ open animation is triggered once each wakes.
• Event.TimerRelative — countdown VO schedule and per-stage celebratory-VO cooldowns.

Notes for modders

This is the native MrxTaskContract/WifMissionData mission system, not Contract Framework — see Contract.Register & Lifecycle for why mods use a different, ephemeral system instead of hooking into this one directly.

• Shares its weapon-strip/timer/VO scaffolding with PmcCon018, PmcCon031, PmcCon032, and PmcCon034 — see PmcCon018’s notes. Like PmcCon032/034, the timer counts up against an overall cap with a manual pass/fail check at the end.
• The pop-up targets reusing Vehicle.OpenDoor/CloseDoor on what are visually paintings/portraits, rather than a dedicated “pop-up target” API, is a good example of the engine’s object systems being repurposed for set-dressing rather than a bespoke solution existing for every visual gimmick.
• TempLoadLayers has no visible caller — the wiring that’s actually active goes through the NETEVENT_TARGETSDOWN/UP net events instead.
• No direct MrxPmc calls in this file.
