I made the American Battleship have a gun (it already did but it didn't do any damage)

The problem is that when the gun fires, an artillery shell appears where I told the weapon to fire and locks on to my Battleship, and then goes into it. This makes it a "suicide unit", if it wasn't for the invunerable armour...


Please could someone tell me what the problem is?

Seriously, post the weapon.ini code and lets have a look at it..

Weapon BattleshipBogusGun2
; We need to have the weapon do some damage, or attacking will not occur ;because it's
; rejected as not having any kind of weapon that does damage
PrimaryDamage = 220 ; does no damage, because the gun firing is only for show, anyway...
; please DON'T adjust this value. to adjust the damage really done by ;battleships,
; adjust the damage values in BattleshipTargetDamagedWeapon!

End

Hmm strange it all looks good. Try reducing the projectile's speed although this is more desperate than logical..
