Can you let a missile shoot? When the missile is fired can the missile shoot to the target. so you get this: Airplane -> Missile -> cluster bullets -> Hit the target. Is this possible?
Interesting question, you could use the missile to spawn an invisible object in mid air which is coded to be aggressive and automatically attacks an enemy with cluster bullets. If you get it right tell me how you got it to work please ;-)
The missle is just an object. Not sure if the KindOf may affect it, but why wouldn't you be able to directly give it a PRIMARY weapon like any other object? We need more expert advice on this one.
I'm pretty sure you could acieve that with a script, just for the missle.
but then the script needs to be picked up really fast, before the missle itself dies.
To make a projectile shoot an enemy by itself, you need to give it AIUpdateInterface. But I don't know if that will interfere with the missile's MissileAIUpdate. It's worth trying at least.
It's entirely possible to give any object in Generals a weaponset. However, I think what would be better for you is to create a missile that spawns multiple objects when it dies. Then you can set the missile to explode a distance from its target (its preffered flight height + a short distance for the velocity inheritance of the spawned objects).
That should create an ideal airburst weapon - the missile just needs a slightly weirder locomotor than usual.
But how will u script this. I'm not so very good at scripting these weapon object. (other object are a little easier) So will you tell me how to do this AmberZ?
Hmm, let me think about it. It really shouldn't be tricky at all !
Basically look at USA building destruction Ranger spawning as a basis for creating your cluster objects. You also need to locate a tag or module of some description that makes an object explode at a set distance from its target.
I can take a look and find this for you if you still need assistance.
