Different turrets for Gattling Tower ?

BaRaKa_ · 03-05-2005, 10:54 AM

Can a building ( an Gattling Tower ) display a different turret, depending on it's weapon ? ( AA or AG ) ?
DeeZire's manual reffers to TurretCount only for units, yet in YAGGUN it also have TurretCount=1.

And... in Gattling Tank's code it have :
TurretCount=1
WeaponCount=6

I added TurretCount=6 ( and of course 5 more turrets in Mix - YTNKTUR1... YTNKTUR5, ) but in game the tank used only YTNKTUR;
I also added IsChargeTurret, but the same thing, it only used the first turret.

Yeah, chargeturret code is for vehicles only

And the turret changing logic only works for the IFV.

only way i know how to do somethin like that is have it like the ts component tower. u can attach a different turret depending on what weapon u want it to have.

I wanted to make the Gattling Tower ( and Gattling Tank ) to have a turret pointing stright foward when firing against an tank or an infantry ( ground target ) and another turret, 45 degrees or something like that, when firing against an aerian target. For Ts component tower i would have to stay and watch for every Gattling tower and change it's turret depending on the targets;

I found another way - do not have turrets, but to draw two types of turrets, with muzzles, in 32 ( or 64 ?) directions, and use them as Anim= for different weapons.

Or to make the turret on ~30 degrees and use the same turret for both AA and AG weapons...

The Gattling Cannon already has a turret that is pointing up roughly 30 degrees, doesn't it?

Yes, the original one, but I've changed it with another Gattling Cannon ( one wich looks more like the chinese Gattling from Generals )...

Yeah, you might as well do that then. It'll save time - it's not worth doing one that aims up an down at the different targets if you ask me. Just the view of a lazy modder...
