small bug with spawned missile

suraj_geddam98

I made a new spawned missile using a tutorial. But its stays in the air forever!

The code:

Code:

[MMISS]
UIName=Name:MMISS
Name=TomaHawk Missile
Primary=SpMGroundHit ;Dummy weapon
Secondary=SpMCollision ;Actual Damaging Weapon
DeathWeapon=SpMCollision ;Actual Damaging Weapon
Strength=75 ;More strength than V3, high tech

Spawned=yes
MissileSpawn=yes ;Dont know much abt this tag, but it may coz the
;TMISS disapeared in the air when destroyed

;Actually when u give it V3 locomotor, it gets V3 property
;But when it launched it hits u back !
MovementZone=Fly

AirportBound=yes

[SpMGroundHit]
Damage=1
ROF=45
Range=4
Speed=80
Warhead=DummyWepWH
OmniFire=yes
Projectile=MMJUMP

;Actual Damaging Weapon
[SpMCollision]
Damage=250

Speed=80
Warhead=SpMWH
OmniFire=yes
Projectile=MMJUMP

[DummyWepWH]

Rocker=yes

[SpMWH]

Deform=10%
DeformThreshhold=300
Tiberium=yes
Sparky=no
Bright=yes
ProneDamage=70%

Oh btw, how do i make the trail appear behind the rocket, instead of in the middle of it? And also, how's my voxel? I made it myself using a self-made 3d model.

It is a SAM (surface to air missile)? Think your projectile needs AG tag. This is the GGI SAM

;GI Missile Launcher
[MissileLauncher]
Damage=40
ROF=40
Range=8
Burst=1
Projectile=AAHeatSeeker2 ;AirToGroundMissile
Speed=30 ;40
Warhead=GUARDWH
Report=GuardianGIDeployedAttack
MinimumRange=1

; aircraft and ground heatseeker
[AAHeatSeeker2]
Arm=2
Shadow=no
;Proximity=yes
Proximity=no
Ranged=yes
AA=yes
AG=yes
Image=DRAGON
ROT=60
SubjectToCliffs=no
SubjectToElevation=no
SubjectToWalls=no

Missile that belongs in the art(md).ini. try this for smoke trail. rename it to your missile.

[DRAGON]
Trailer=SMOKEY2
UseLineTrail=yes ; SJM
LineTrailColor=216,216,255 ; SJM
LineTrailColorDecrement=16 ; SJM
Rotates=yes

Add Suicide=yes to [SpMGroundHit]

You using RA2 or YR? If using RA2 you cant make your own missile system, but you can use your image for replacement in the V3 code.

AFAIK the game doesn't like aircraft with Suicide=yes weapon.

Whats your coding for projectile MMJUMP?

Only way to make a new missile without exe hack is the limbo launch method which leaves a radar ping on map.

The lack of limbo launcher code lead me to believe he is using the old crashing plane with DeathWeapon method.

Edit: Think he is using this tutorial.

Code:

[MMJUMP]
Image=MJUMP ;Use same voxel as MMISS
AA=yes
AG=yes
AN=no
Arm=2
ROT=8 ;requires to use Rotates
Shadow=yes
Proximity=yes
Ranged=yes
FirersPalette=yes

added Suicide=yes, didn't do anything.
I used a similar tutorial that uses the no-dock crash method.
It seems like it refuses to fire the dummy weapon.

EDIT:Yay, changed the range on [SpMGroundHit] to 7 and it worked
How do i make the rocket trail to appear behind it instead of in the middle of it as shown in the pic? Also, how's my VXL?

I dont think you can use the No Dock crash method with a spawned missile.

Afaik do you can't move the point where the anim spawns. Thus you simply have to move the missile a bit forward so the end of the missile is at the rotation centre. (should be a fast hva-builder job by moving the missile a bit forward)

ty LKO it worked!

@crevio:No-dock crash method works perfectly fine on spawned missiles.

I'd recommend using a limbo launcher, it works a lot more smoothly.

I don't know how to use limbo-launcher. AG also said it leaves a radar ping on the map. I don't want that.

Add LimboLaunch=yes to [SpMCollision] & make it the primary weapon (the other weapons can be removed to) that should work.

As for the map ping I've never had the problem myself.

Well it happens because when a unit limbo launches, it still "exists"

Classic example is mind control limbo launch normal way, if you click the controlled unit, the mc link will link to "nowhere"

You can make it RadarInvisible=yes and its only a minor issue tbh for the functionality.
