Useless Base Defense (no rocket being launched)

I created a Tomahawk Patriot Battery for the US Boss General, but the missile does not fire from the battery (it does rotate on its axis, so firing is the only problem). Here is the object code:
(Code from USABoss.INI)

Code:

What is wrong with the programming?

In your draw module you should have
ProjectileBoneFeedbackEnabledSlots = PRIMARY SECONDARY
like for the tomahawk vehicle.

But even if you did not have that it should still fire. If it is shooting but the projectile is blowing up on the ground under the structure then check your launch bone in the W3D model. If it is not even fireing at all then i don't know.

The problem is fixed. The battery now launches a rocket, leaving the turret temporarily empty. It can also rotate and attack in all directions. What I did was copy a certain block of text from the TomahawkBattery.ini file in Command and Conquer Generals Armageddon and combined that with the line "ProjectileBoneFeedbackEnabledSlots". Here is the code:

Code:

  SelectPortrait = SATmhkPatriot

      Turret             = TURRET
      TurretPitch        = TURRETEL
      WeaponLaunchBone   = PRIMARY   WeaponA01
      WeaponLaunchBone   = SECONDARY WeaponA01
      WeaponHideShowBone = PRIMARY   MISSILE
      WeaponHideShowBone = SECONDARY MISSILE
    End

Thanks for your help, although it really was a no-brainer.

Now all I have is the problem of invisible defenses popping up on snowy terrain.

beng · 03-02-2008, 09:55 PM

If you do not have W3D models with snow skins then make it use the same skin for snow and non-snow maps. Similarly, if you do not have night models, make it use the same skin for day and night. To make it ignore the snow and/or night condition states, put a line in your w3dModelDraw module that says

IgnoreConditionStates = SNOW NIGHT

Then make sure that none of your condition states in that module have SNOW or NIGHT or it will crash the game. See the AmericaInfantryRanger object for details of how IgnoreConditionStates is used.

beng · 03-02-2008, 10:47 PM

Looking at your code, what this means is make your first module start with:

Draw = W3DModelDraw Tomahawk
ProjectileBoneFeedbackEnabledSlots = PRIMARY SECONDARY
OkToChangeModelColor = Yes
IgnoreConditionStates = SNOW

Then delete all the conditionstates and aliasconditionstates that mention snow from that module.

Since it looks like you also have no night model, you could make that
IgnoreConditionStates = SNOW NIGHT
and delete all the condition states / aliases that mention SNOW, NIGHT or both.

It is ok to leave in the SNOW and NIGHT for the other draw modules (for the construction fence and other parts) if you have models for those conditions.

BlueLightning2K6 · 03-08-2008, 03:05 PM

I'll try giving the day and night models for the defense to the snow and snow night condition states. If that doesn't work, I'll try the second method: add IgnoreConditionStates = SNOW NIGHT and delete all snow and/or night conditions. Thanks, beng.

beng · 03-09-2008, 10:53 PM

Both methods will work, but if you are using the same model for day and night, you might as well IgnreConditionStates since it will make your module code much shorter and easier to read.
