Hii... I'm newby and i try to increase tomahawk and scud launcher fire range into 2000, i already edit weapons.ini and the launcher did had 2000 firing range. But the problem is the missile (tomahawk & scud) never hit the intended target (they exploded mid air and oftenly overshoot the target) :tard:

Any solution???

Thank's beforehand

Hi to increase the flight time of the missiles.

open weaponobjects.ini and search for the missiles of the scud launcher and the tomahawk launcher

normally its the 'TomahawkMissile' and 'SCUDMissile'

and find this code:

;from the scud missile
Behavior = MissileAIUpdate ModuleTag_07
TryToFollowTarget = No
FuelLifetime = 5000
IgnitionDelay = 0
InitialVelocity = 50 ; in dist/sec
DistanceToTravelBeforeTurning = 200
DistanceToTargetBeforeDiving = 200 ; When I hit this close to target, I ignore PreferredHeight.
End

;from tomahawk missile
Behavior = MissileAIUpdate ModuleTag_07
TryToFollowTarget = Yes
FuelLifetime = 4000
IgnitionDelay = 0
IgnitionFX = FX_TomahawkIgnition
InitialVelocity = 50 ; in dist/sec
DistanceToTravelBeforeTurning = 200
DistanceToTargetBeforeDiving = 200 ; When I hit this close to target, I ignore PreferredHeight.

DistanceToTargetForLock = 15 ; Short lock on, as it looks better flying. jba.
End

and change FuelLifetime to whatever number u want.

I recommend changing the FuelLifetime value to 0 so you don't ever have to worry about not setting the fuel values high enough.

you sure?? will it detonate after 0 milisec?

no it will give the missile unlimited fuel

[scorpio_arf]

ok guys thanks, but where the location of weaponobject.ini I can't find it in INIZH.BIG

Thank's beforehand

it is located in 'Data\INI\Object\'

I don't like giving missiles infinite fuel. If they track a fast moving turning target, they could potentially never come down.

[Thinimus]

Well, they should either:

Hit the target. (Probably will cause missiles turn so damn fast)

Hit the terrain or object.

Fly away into edge of the map. (Do objects go away if they go that far, completely past the actual map edge, not just the black border?)


Since we're on missles, how do you setup them up so they don't do sharp turns after launch and make them turn at a certain rate? I can't find a way to setup a proper locomotor.

[SmokeyDaBear]

DistanceToTravelBeforeTurning = 200
DistanceToTargetBeforeDiving = 200 ; When I hit this close to target, I ignore PreferredHeight.


you have to change some of the stuff in those and also


MaxThrustAngle = 30 ; in degrees (NOT degrees/sec)
AllowAirborneMotiveForce = Yes
Appearance = THRUST
PreferredHeight = 270
AirborneTargetingHeight = 100
;Note, PreferredHeight and DistanceToTargetBeforeDiving work in tandem for missiles.
PreferredHeightDamping = 0.7 ; so that we gradually adjust our height

change some of the turn rate, and airborne targeting height... height damping is another thing to look into
