Greetings!
Has anyone ever made a weapon or unit that fires to the side?

What I am asking is if anyone has ever modeled a c130 gunship firing off to the side?

No dice...
If I posted my code for aircraft, can someone help me?

The one from that topic works but after firing once it stops, it will fly around the target in a circular motion until it can retarget it again, I never played around with it further because I know it's an engine limitation.

I now use Cluster for my gunship, it's the closest I'll get to it working decent.

I have mine armed with a strafing mg(invis projectile) and a anti-tank gun.
I wish that I could make it work firing 90 degrees though.

Strafing gun is also on my a-10.

Not mine but, found code somewhere(probally here).

I also have 3-4 cluster weapons working.

It has been several years and was hoping that someone has been able to model the c130, 90 degree shooting.

Shall I give up or investigate FLH?

Check out the Aegis cruiser.
It fires missiles 45° to the side, regardless of the target position and the cruisers direction.
Maybe you can add this logic to your aircraft.

..."RadialFireSegments=10" is what I see.
I have been trying that route for years....Let me try again..

OmniFire should be on the weapon not the unit, play around with ROT=1/2 and see if adding SlowdownDistance=0.001 to the unit helps.
A weapon with 4-7 range should look consistent with what you are trying to achieve, as long as you use a projectile that has a ROT.
