Romanov.

Perhaps the weapon has to be secondary. Could try moving it there and giving Primary=none

now he does not even do anything at all Sad

before, i remember making this work on general but with his primary... when romanov uses this as his primary, he does not do the laser thing, he just stands there with the red target thing when you reselect him. Is there something I did wrong? could it be locomoter or anything?

Are ZEEP & NUKEDROP aircraft or jumpjets?

both aircraft, and both work. i tried the tags posted above on boris and it worked, the kirovs did apear perfectly as planned (except their bombs act exactly like a missile and flies a tad bit forward, but ohwell..).

this logic is very buggy for units. it works best at buildings. thats why Boris only use it on buildings

Does Romanov have any firing frames defined in his sequence?

[EDIT] Mod map. So that's a no go. If you tested it on Boris, it should be fine, even on units. But if a unit moves, you lose the target.

Original game doesn't allow for airstrikes to be used on anything but buildings.

So its the units sequence? Lame xD I guess I will settle for Vladimier. Also I am not using it on units or infantry, just buildings... Flare only allows buildings due to its warhead and stuff. Thanks guys. I kinda doubted it worked since it did on boris but I was hoping it was something stupid I missed..

err, I'm pretty sure SeaMan got it to work on vehicles.

Just a random thought but giving Flare ROF=0 might help, It could retarget the unit as soon as it moves then.

I'm pretty sure it breaks the target, unless it auto-acquired. But this would still be ineffective since the planes would never make it.

actually, the airstrike planes would retarget if a new target is selected and the planes still had enough ammo... (i have been playing around with 20 borises...)

meh, making them target vehicles did not work for me :/ is there more to it other then adding 1% to vehicles? :p all i get is the red target circle and she sorta aims and doesnt attack... and yes, her primary has 0% on everything but infantry :p
