kirov is a vehicle that flies because it has the jumpjet locomotor, so yes, kirovs can be made to spawn hornets

However, spawned objects redock with their parent units at ground level, but parent units are not given a command to land. Add to that the fact that the Kirov can't land at all, and bam.

Maybe, if I give the spawned objects Ammo=-1 so they don't need to dock. I will get my RA2 cds back tomorrow, so I will test then.

Rules' comments say aircraft need limited ammo. I'm pretty sure that's incorrect, though.

Well from my experiments, they don't need it, but if you have infinite, it will take a "long time" (in a manner of speaking) to reload fully, and one thing I have found in the past is that by increasing the Reload= of AircraftTypes=, you cause the aircraft to fly off the edge of the map after bombing a target, only returning when it's ammo has recharged. So if you don't put a limit on the Ammo=, you'll never see your plane again after it's first mission :lol:

Just another day and I will be back in business! What I will do is give the spawned units unlimited ammo, so they won't need to reload. Something that shouldn't run out, like lasers (just so it makes sense). If it works I might give it to Mr. Graffitti for Oxid Wars, since it is a space type mod, and Spaceships spawning small laser fighters would fit in nice.

Just FYI:

Use of -1 indicates unlimited ammo but this value should not be used on AircraftTypes whose landing logic in Red Alert 2 appears to require them to run out of ammo after an attack mission - aircraft are hard coded to require a positive value to get them to return to the structure with which they Dock=.

i'm pretty sure that spawned units MUST have limited ammo and require returning to reload(unless in the case of a missile or suicide plane, they die first). try giving them a low reload rate.

1. go to the section for aircraft and add ammo=2instead of one

2.if you wan't to make them like b2 bombs use this codes

;WEAPON
[Bomb]
Damage=100
ROF=10
Range=5
Projectile=Bombp
Speed=0
Warhead=ORCAHE2
Floater=yes
Burst=5

;PROJECTILE
[Bombp]
Image=ZBOMB
AA=no

;WARHEAD
[ORCAHE2]
Wall=yes
Sparky=no
Wood=yes
Bright=yes
Fire=yes
CellSpread=1.6
Verses=100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%
Conventional=yes
Rocker=yes
InfDeath=2
AnimList=EXPLOMED,EXPLOLRG
Deform=8%
DeformThreshhold=160
Tiberium=yes
ProneDamage=150%

it might be a bit strong though

it should drop 5 bombs

also give the blimp this
Primary=Bomb

and delete the elite primary

3. give the unit tanyas locomotor

4.it depends if you want to add the unit and the whole code or not

I apreciate it, but I already did the code for it, I haven't tested it though. My Cd-Rom's lens are dirty, I need something to fix that. After I do it, I can test my new Stingray's voxel, the Sky Fortress and alot bug fixes.

Anyways, Im totally sure that an aircraft's weapon must have ammo or deathweapon.
