Or, use pure ini coding like I did.

I'm working on a Javelin type rocket launcher. Firing the rocket is a 3 step process...
1. Rocket leaves the barrel 2. 1/4 of a second later the rocket flies 200 pixels vertically into the air. 3. The rocket locks onto a target within a 1000 pixel radius, and begins it's decent =) I have steps 1 & 3 covered, how would I go about doing step 2? Thanks in advance! |

2: Attach an Emitter that emits something that pushes the missile upwards then samething to go restore the angle to point forward Or just Lua for it all.. |

Yeah, we can probably cannibalize the destroyer's Lua code for the 2nd stage then add in the homing missile's code but for a 1000 pixel radius. |

Do you want it to target enemies that are near the start point or the peak of the second stage? It makes sense to me to limit the field of "vision" to 45º from where the actor aims the weapon, and to pick a target even before it fires the missile. |

It makes sense to me to limit the field of "vision" to 45º from where the actor aims the weapon, and to pick a target even before it fires the missile. After it's at the end of the second stage it should search for the nearest target. At p3lb0x: That looks nice, but it should go up straighter.

How are you making the mod otherwise then? |
