Okay, so I finally got around to implementing that "game-breaker".
First of all: Holy shit. When you say game-breaker, you're not kidding. Hoowever, that was easily the coolest-looking effect I've ever seen in RA2. Ever. Despite the fact that it raped both my framerate and an entire civilian city.
Second: The meteors still come from the sky, not the plane. I still have something to use that attack for though, just, so it won't go to waste.
Anyway, I just got an idea for the cluster bombs. I'm going to try using the sharapnel code that's used for the Prism Tank's shot (you know, the thing that causes the little beams to split off from the main one.
EDIT: Well, that didn't work. A shrapnel weapon appapently only gives of shrapnel when the attack is a direct hit on a non-building.
