-- Overpowering a Solenoid --

Infraid · 12-09-2003, 08:25 PM

I'd like to make a "variant" of the Tesla Coil, a defensive structure that can be charged/overpowered by some spec. units the same way as the Coil with Tesla Troopers. BUT i don't want the Troopers to be able to charge the new struct.
I looked for Trooper's AssaultBolt but didn't see anything that targets the Coil directly...

it's in the warhead.

[ElectricAssault]
ElectricAssault=yes
Verses=0%,0,0%,0%,0%,0%,100%,100%,100%,50%,100%
InfDeath=5

and on the building you need Overpowerable=true

but then the new unit will be able to charge the solenoid as well, the same goes with the Tesla Trooper and the new building.....

well, if you modify the Versus in the warheads....

================
update : the Solenoid
================

Goal :

Code:

Give the Solenoid an EMP weap that temporary freeze a vehicle (added to the Tesla Warhead).

Why :

Code:

To keep opponent's vehicle within line of defense.

Prob :

Code:

1) Make a temporary Paralysis warhead.
2) Apply damage to it.

Is there any leftover EMP logic you can invoke?

As a turret/weapon you can only use the chrono-codes, but you can make parasites paralyze things.

For that look at the squid logic

Featuring the notorious Terror Drone, yes...

(Hint: TD's EMP-Drone uses that combination)
