Making the turret Rotate in Deployed State

Zero18

I have a problem, when I deploy Paladin Howitzer, it won't fire and I can't give it direct fire command. But in undeployed state, it can fire.

I do not want the howitzer to fire in undeployed state, but only in deployed. I must be missing something in the code.

Code:

Set the undeployed state to use a dummy weapon then set the deployed state to use the weapon. That should do it.

Or set DeployFireWeapon=0 (default is 1 which means Secondary, which doesn't exist on your deployed unit, thus no weapon is fired)

Set the intended weapon as secondary of the main unit entry since you are using simpledeployer, the unloadingclass= unit entry is NOT USED except for art.

Set the primary to dummy weapon with 0% verses warhead or Range=0 etc...
Admittedly there is some chance it will bypass the 0% weapon and use secondary when not deployed :/

You may also try DeployToFire=yes (Nod artillery)/DeployFire=yes logics.

Or make it deploy into a building. Since its an artillery anyway it would need a stable flat ground when firing anyway.

Does Primary=none // Secondary=test not accomplish the goal? I used something like this before, I just looked at how the Siege Chopper did things and followed this as a base. Plus Harvesters have Primary=none, I don't think I had issues.
