Armor Types

shane · 04-01-2003, 05:54 PM

Okay, I just got an idea for a SW type weapon that I plan on having kill EVERYTHING on the map, except certain buildings (CY, Refine, SW Itself). Now I know how to get it to not deal damage to certain things using the vs on its wh, but can I add a new armor class so all I have to do is edit those buildings armor? Or am I going to have to change all the armor classes around (change armor to heavy & change all of the others to medium & light) ?

AFAIK there is no way to add a new type of armor in RA2/YR.

You have to change everything around. There's no way around it. I really wish RA2 and YR were more mod friendly.

then make the armor percentages on the wood, steel and concrete 0% and declare 100% on the rest of the armor types.

[YourWH]
Verses=100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,0%,0%,0%,100% ,100%

you can't add a new armor type/class in RA2 and RA2YR.

Yes, this solution at least keeps buildings and destroy other things but certain building? No!

Just curious, but what is the difference between the different armor types in YR and do they mean anything?

xcomet · 04-07-2003, 01:13 PM

there is no difference because there was no new added armor types, only new death animations was implemented in YR..

What about Veinholes?
In the INI-Guide, DeeZire says that a Warhead with Veinhole=yes can only target and damage things which are not ImmuneToVeins=yes...this way, he'd just have to make sure that everything he doesn't want to take damage is immune to veins...IMO this is a far better solution, since he wouldn't have to mess around with the armors...

But it's still a question how to spread the damage over the whole map!?
