Hi,
I've got a problem with my new pillbox (equipped with a gattling):
The pillbox shoot, but than it skips the second gattling stage, go to the third stage and finally I've got an internal error. What ist wrong?

That's the code.

[DCoder]

Gattling logic requires 6 weapons in this order: AG stage 1, AA stage 1, AG 2, AA 2, AG 3, AA 3.

[IHM]

man, gatling weapons sound complicated, can you give infantry gatling weapons???

[Marshall7a]

You can't give infantry gattling weapons at all - they're just ignored and the infantry unit will just use his normal weapons.

[IHM]

yea, thought so, it just saves me testing it my self.

[blehmy]

wait, so if you give an infantry the code for gattling weapons, he can't use it?

[Marshall7a]

Yes, he can't.

[AAG]

YR exes search different properties in different classes of objects
In unit class they search such prop. as 'Primary', 'Secondary', 'Transport', 'DeploysInto' and etc.
In infantry class they don't search for 'DeploysInto' prop. so infantry cannot deploy into structures.
In buildings class exe searchs 'IsGattling','Power','BuildCat' and other options which are not searched in units and infantry.
So if you put some options which 'are not searched by exe' you'll have no result.
Creators of Ra2/YR made codes in exe by minimum. They have opinion that many features of buildings are not for units and they don't need to waste their time

But it would be greate to make gap logic for units or weapons for overlays or gattling for infantry and aircrafts and etc. They didn't care for it, unfortunately.

[DCoder]

AAG, you have forgotten the Gattling Tank Gattling logic works on vehicles, albeit not on infantry.

[AAG]

Ok. I've forgotten it. 'IsGattling' is searched by exe in buildings and units classes, but not in others.
