It should, but Cortex's aiming angle management doesn't work that way. Another small bug for Data to fix.

I suppose you could do something about this in Lua if you can set aim angles...

you can and im planning to. i'll need it for walkers in zombies09 anyway.

Tried this out today. This tank is badass!

I put this tank in with a small assault group. All the guys died, and when I left the tank out in the open while I ordered more troops, it defended itself well. I left it there, and played out a long match with the troops. by the end, it had some scratches, but it defended itself, it ripped apart many enemies, and didn't lose any more than 12 hitpoints. Awesome!

Also, its more than posible for a traversable turret to operate independently of its chassis. That's fairly simple, actually. Laser levels and gyroscopic balancing.

But the limits for the aim angles should still be dependent on the tank's orientation. (unless I'm completely misunderstanding your post.)

you are.

I'm certain there's full animation for each leg (including background ones). I have them somewhere if they weren't in that sprite sheet.

Oh, and by the way... Hello again.

hey, nachos returns. sweet, thats some less work for me, i had the segments rotated but not combined. cant do much from here but it should be pretty sweet. also wow, if youre in aus at the moment you are up early.
cheers man

No problem, and yes it is an ungodly time in the morning to be up, my body clock just won't let me sleep. Unfortunately I'm not really returning, I have a few days off since I started work and I popped in to see how things were going. Much too busy now to work on my own mods I'm afraid. Awesome work assembling the Mammoth Tank though! Especially like it how you got the animation going for the tracks and wheels, I tried it out on the "new" build, and slaughtered that jumping crab. I can't really say new cause I don't know how long it's been out for. Keep up the good work!

Its been out for quite a while, and i shan't be able to work on it until the contest is over, sorry for the delay on the crab version <_<

Undead contest deserves it, I'm also in.

anyway, keep in mind a special way to delivery this lil one...

Awesome! I like the GDI most of all. But... next can be Avatar, isn't it? Bipedal walker, 30 feet standing, not too difficult to make, has cool design.
It can be a great C&C mod. Also for people to know that behind Generals there is something much much much better. Tib Wars and Kane's Wrath are my favorite games along with CC.

No, this was more of a one time mod for kicks. I still have some patching up to do, which sadly I cannot do from here, but I dont plan on making an avatar or anything really Command and Conquer related, I prefer to work on more original, non copyright intellectual property.
If someone wants to make a full C&C mod, they're welcome to use this, with due credit, but I sure as heck dont plan on it.

This looks pretty neat.
