Re: The Jericho Missile (WIP)
As for the homing, what sort of homing do you need?

Re: The Jericho Missile (WIP)
This Looks Awsome. Three things however, Could you make the mini missiles move just a little faster, they look a bit sluggish at the moment. Also use p3lb0x's homing code, it's the best by far for little missiles(make them go ground based actors as well though Also swarm thinking would be cool ( the missiles don't all go for the same target, they split up and kill everything.)

Yea, the missles must spread to give the original large area pwnage.

Re: The Jericho Missile (WIP)
This is really cool and seems to work like the name implies, however; one thing, making some of the missiles bunker busters might increase utility.

When the missile is shot, it needs to home on an enemy (clone, crab whatever) and when the missile is like 200 px from that enemy, it should gib into the spent jericho case with all the gibs I put there as well as becoming dumb from this point, slowly falling without using thrusters, like its shown right here. The swarm missiles doesn't home in though, they just split up and kill everything without even homing in. I can even make the missiles blow up in a larger area right now. I only need the homing for the jericho to be usable on larger maps as well as smaller maps.

The spent jericho case is actually one big bunker buster. I only need to increase the terrain damage done by this one. Another thing to add to the to do list. xerxys wrote: Could you make the mini missiles move just a little faster, they look a bit sluggish at the moment. Will do.

Re: The Jericho Missile (WIP)
I started doing the stuff I said, 'cause I thought this was awsome but could be better, but I have to go away for a week.
Here it is, currently giving a lua error
P.S. I know This isn't my mod but it was awsome, so I added lua

I like this, its very cool visually although it lags a little. If I can suggest, make it manually controllable ACRocket so you can use it like a tactical wide-area mass destruction weapon. Like a remote control cluster cruise missile. Try to reduce the particle count and/or remove some effect particles that are barely visible anyway. In short, use less, but more deadly particles(high mass, low-ish sharpness).

You realize that, that's the coalition homing rocket launcher code, right? edit: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/1649320/Cortex/Jericho.gifYou should really put some velocity the on trails. It makes it much more consistent rather than a dotted path

Here's the bigmissle code. xerxys, argumentless functions still require brackets at the end. IE bobby:GibThis() and not, bobby:GibThis. Oh and this is pretty damn awesome by the way, great job.

Re: The Jericho Missile MK2 (WIP) Updated 09/02/09
Okay now the lua script runs without errors but the missile doesn't home in and rarely gib by itself... can anyone actually make a "working" lua script?
