Compressed Air Artillery Issues

I was going to ask how to keep the barrel from sliding off the unit when it fires, but Muldrake seems to have answered this in another thread.

With the HVA positioning, for a turret, you will want it to be centralised in the x,z plane (front-back, side-side) as this is were the pivot point is for turret rotation.

Also, I find its always better to use voxel offset to position your

With regard to the barrel always orientated at 45'. This is dependant on your ini entries, and weapon types.

So I'll move onto number two.

There's some light grey on the tip of the unit's barrels and it turns pink & green in game. Can someone explain it please?

I'm going to repaint it. I'm going to remove the stripes on the compressor tanks so it's easier to tell that the unit is yours.
I'd like to know how to get it to fit in with the other units. It looks ugly compared to westwood's.

Any advice? This is the first unit I've EVER made so I'm surprised it looks as good as it does, but it needs to be better.

Thanks.

the green and pink dots are often pallet issues and should be fixed by makeing sure you are using the right pallet in the voxel editor (ts and ra2 pallets are simmilar but have one or two colors that are differant) and by replacing the pink/green coloured pixel (in game)with an other colour in the editor.

In other words, don't use palette colours 1-15 and 240-255. They all turn pink in the game. I'm not sure about 208-239 in Tiberian Sun though, as I've never used them before myself.

Giving your gun Lobber=yes will cause the barrel to slide into an awkward angle when it fires.
The juggernaut and the Nod artillery both have tags to adjust this
