From hints numgun has dropped, I think that the sprite issue with missiles MAY be fixed next build!

The controls on this one are very sluggish, the thing goes nowhere and follows none of my commands, deciding to just float about. However; I love the new missile launcher and delivery system (despite like a 10% success rate...).

I really hope so, having a backwards flying missile just doesnt sit right with me, it's like wearing your clothes backwards.




I want to make left and right controls work better for it, by manipulating the walkpath to move an emitter further behind it, allowing it to tilt forward and move, but I have no clue if that's even practical. What I have been doing to move it left and right though is do that barrel roll thing, where you hold left/right and tap the down button enough so it tilts it forward, but not enough to make it do a full roll. As for vertical lift, It should still fly up?
It took me ages messing around with the delivery box just to get it with that chance of success, by changing the rocket weight, exit position and velocity and the helicopters normal weight. I don't know of a good way to resolve it without messing around with only those values.

yeah, I noticed the controls were a bit slow and uncooperative.
Also, using the 'swandive' technique (crouching in air and pressing left or right) is a bad idea. that's how you flip it.

Yeah!!! New update!

Missles are nice, the ejecting pilot is a very fun element too. But, one very serious problem. The delivery crate, when dropped down, it becomes partly stuck in whatever terrain it lands on. And when the choppa pops out, it flies to space at 200 something m/s. This makes it impossible to deliver the choppa, better fix that.

Also, maybe detachable landing thrusters or a parachute for the delivery crate? Looks cooler than simply falling.

i managed to damage myself with the missiles so that the pilot jumped out of it while flying and i could still fly.....
guess what i did next.....

i killed the pilot of course HAHAHAhahahahahahahahaha...

to anyone that did not know this:
the heli can pick up weapons if landed at the right position on the ground:

Testing Results

1. As you said above, the Chopper Hanger shoots the chopper at incredible speeds in the air. Funny but it sucks. I didn't know that it already had a chopper in it so when I first used it it shot out like two and wiped out like 10 green clones.

2. When I shoot with missiles and the mini gun, it sorta pushes the chopper back. The kickback is a little too strong.

3. Optional: When you fire, the mini gun and the missiles go off at the same time and in order to have the missiles shoot, you have to click. If you want you can consider having the missiles shoot at timed intervals.

4. Could the clone shoot out with a digger too? When it gibs, I always get stuck under a mountain of gibs.

5. The chopper spins too much when you press "down" and I end up in the ground. Could you also fix that? I'm not exactly sure how that can be fixed though...

the fact that the heli CAN pick up weapons made me start to experiment with different weapons.....
ONE thing made me look like this:

EDIT: i forgot to say that even if the weapon in the picture is helluva big and helluva powerful the chopper does not react to much from the recoil.....
Pooor kloveskians.....

Update! - Check Main Post

Hey, I hope this update has fixed most major problems... There's still a few things I'm aware of, and I hope to iron them out as I start working on newer features for it.

Edit: There should be less lag now for anyone with slower computers, yay!!
Editx2: I thought this post covered most questions since my last post, so I can answer them all here.


I might also slow down a bit, I've been working on this a lot today, and I need a break, lol.
Get back to work you slacker!!!

Enjoy!

This mod is ace I like it a lot

Also, "extracting files, 666kb"? DEMONCOPTER

A lot more fun, a lot less buggy, a lot less hard to control. But controlled forward acceleration is still a ♥♥♥♥♥.

Oh and the ejection seat is pure awesome win.

I had mine pick up a judgement cannon from DSTECH....

LOL.

HOW THE ♥♥♥♥ DID I MISS THIS? HOLY ♥♥♥♥ THIS IS AWESOME.

Dude how you did so rocket doesnt rotates when it launch . When i worked on some grenade launchers the shoted grenade(or rocket) always rotates . How you did that ?!

he used MOSParticle instead of MOSRotating. i had to reread what you just said for it to make any sense, but now it does. so yes, MOSParticle. (i think)
