HARRIERS TO THE RESCUE - Page 3

Banshee · 10-20-2004, 11:35 PM

Mr. shad0wshenlong. In order to properly behave in this forum, make sure of few things:

- Don't go offtopic. If the topic talks about harriers, don't interrupt it with something else that has nothing to do with it. If you wanna post something that has nothing to do with the available topics, create a new topic. Period.

- Read the description of all forums before and select the most appropriate forum to post your message. In your case, you've choosen the wrong one. You should have posted at Deezire Projects Discussion.

- Having a problem is certainly annoying and I'm sure that when a person have a problem, the person get ansious to have a solution for it. But no one's problem have a priority over others. Keep that in mind.

- There is no need to spam or destroy other topics in order to get people posting on your topic. People will (try to) help you, whether you spam other topics or not... but if you spam, people tends to get pissed off at you or not help you with the same good mood they would if you don't spam... this applies specially for the creator or those who were interested on the spammed/destroyed topic.

Other than that, welcome to Deezire forums and I hope someone bring this topic back ontopic.

Uhh, what were we talking about again :tard:

Oh yeah, planes. I have a quesion. I have made a hovering plane that fires anti-air missiles and bombs. Trouble is, even if I make the range of the bombs 0 or 0.1 or 1, the plane never drops the bombs vertically. Instead, it lobs them slightly ahead of it. It misses it's target a lot, you have to position it carefully to get it to actually hit the target. Basically, this unit is supposed to drop bombs like the Orca Bomber (although you directly control it - it doesn't circle around the target to make several attack sweeps).

I will post some code once I find it...

Renegade · 10-22-2004, 08:49 AM

Range of 1 and a pretty high ROF.

Whiteboy · 10-22-2004, 10:38 PM

Ren, I tried range of 1 and it's still pretty buggy... and why would adjusting the ROF make it any more accurate?

Renegade · 10-23-2004, 07:55 AM

Oops, missed that part...post your Weapon, Warhead & Projectile, please.

Whiteboy · 10-23-2004, 09:39 PM

OK. The unit is called the "Nemesis" BTW. I think I may be using a bad projectile... but the TS Orca Bomber used the same projectile I think...

Code:

SubjectToCliffs=no
SubjectToElevation=no
SubjectToWalls=no

doesn't go on weapons, just projectiles.

Why don't you just try different ROF and Range values to see what works?

DCoder · 10-24-2004, 02:57 AM

Orca Bomber was an AircraftType, this "Nemesis" is obviously a jumpjet (anti-air missiles, anyone?) You should have used Kirov's weapon coding.

Renegade · 10-24-2004, 08:15 AM

He actually said it was a jumpjet

Anyway, Floater=yes might cause the problem, Speed=0 doesn't sound like a good idea either, and, as I said, a ROF of 750 is far too high. Using that number, he will only drop one bomb every 50 seconds! (i.e. no matter how slow you make it, it will only drop one single bomb, not do a bombing run [or two, due to your burst - but the weapon will only fire once]).

The Deform-stuff doesn't work AFAIK, therefore it's useless and dangerous. Fire and Sparkling are similar.
