well I just don't know why this happens now, when the turret is a SHP the game or the building go nerdy

like some times the turret never show up
some times it shows up on the snowed maps while not the others

here is my codes

{RULES CODES}

What the hell could be wrong!!!

Because you don't have files for generic theaters, i.e. sgsamtur.shp
The second letter in filename determines in which theater it will be used.
g - generic
a - snow
t - temperate
u - urban
n - new urban
d - desert
l - lunar
Most time you only need generic and snow

Any new modders can learn from the SHP turret itself, not the theater.

sorry I didn't understand what do you mean by this, any way I fixed it.

I just forgot about the theater files of the main SHP file, Do you think it was another thing was behind it!!!!

Also I have another question

What are the right codes for a SHP projectile which makes it act like voxel ones
here is my code:

{RULES CODES}

Code:

[AniamtionsList]
xx=SAM6rocket

[SAM6prj]
Arm=1
High=yes
Shadow=no
AA=yes
AG=yes
;AN=no
Image=SAM6rocket
ROT=50
Scalable=yes
SubjectToCliffs=no
SubjectToElevation=no
SubjectToWalls=no

{ART}

Code:

[SAM6rocket]
Normalized=yes
Rate=900
SpawnDelay=1
Trailer=EXPLOMED2
Rotates=yes
Frames=64

It's a projectile for anti-air turret, but it doesn't tilt on it's way to the target, It just climb up while paralleled to the ground!!!!

Also What is the palette to use for it because it gives me another color other than the color in the SHP editor.


here is the projectile

SHPs can't tilt, only rotate, and you need to use FirersPalette=yes in rules code (See other similar projectiles like DOGJUMP).

Okay, but I have another question about voxel projectile


Why when it's meant to be a ground to air VXL projectile, it fly's in a straight course untill it become 3 cell close to the target then it tilt and climbs up to hit the target


for example:

the range of the weapon is (100) cells

and the target is in range in the 90th cell, the turret uses it's given anti-air weapon and launch's it's projectile

but the projectile takes about 85 cell paralleled to the ground in the same height untill it's 5 cells close to the target and tilts upwards the target and climb up to hit it sort of vertically


so why it deosnt tilt up from the exact moment it get's fired from the turret
and from the exact moment it get's fired

here is my projectile code, you will notice that the (CourseLockDuration=1)

Code:

[SAM6PRJ]
Arm=1
High=yes
Shadow=no
AA=yes
AG=yes
;AN=no
Image=SAM6rocket
ROT=55
Scalable=yes
SubjectToCliffs=no
SubjectToElevation=no
SubjectToWalls=no
"""''CourseLockDuration=1""""
Ranged=yes
Degenerates=yes

That's just how homing missiles work in RA2, it's part of the reason most projectiles have a short range. Look at the Aegis cruiser's missiles, the only reason they first go up is because the CourseLockDuration is long enough.

You know it's weird that WESTWOOD made a strange unreal logics,

Any way may be that's my own problem because of my strict commitment to REALISM

Anyway thanks
