I made a new laser type weapon (following this: http://www.deezire.net/modules.php?n...r=asc&start=15 ) for one of the tanks in the WH40k mod but something's gone wrong. As none of my models are skinned yet I gave it to the Crusader to test it. I set it so the laser would be fired from the TurretMS01 bone at the end of the crusader's turret. This works fine when the entire tank is pointed in the direction of the target but when just the turret moves, the laser still originates from where the end of the barrel would be if still pointing dead ahead. Testing in Renx showed that the TurretMS01 bone thing is connected to the end of the barrel and moves with the turret. So why does the laser fire from the wrong place?
