Post Exploding on impact... again
Well, I know this issue has been gone over much. But I've searched the forums and even used iwillcontrolyou's impact grenade template, and I still have trouble with explode-on-impact grenades.

I'm trying to make a grenade launcher which, of course, fires grenades that explode on impact. I followed the template, and the grenades explode upon impact with surfaces. But, they fly right through actors. Clones, robots, dropships... everything. I don't get it. My grenade is a 3x3 sprite with a velocity of 80.

How do I get it so they impact actors?

Decrease the gibimpulselimit.
And increase velocity maybe.
Or, if they're still flying through, decrease the velocity.

you could try making the grenades MOSRotating. just use the same gibimpulselimit type explosion with high velocity gibs.

You're absolutely correct. It works perfectly now. Making it MOSRotating has the added benefit of not having to worry about setting explosion attributes, like the timer.

Thanks!

If it hit terrain but not MOs then it had HitsMOs = 0.

But Grif's post was kinda pointless, considering that the post right before it said it was working.
There's also no need to repeat what someone else said.

Was my post directed at you?

No. ♥♥♥♥ off.

@Darklink: No one said what I said. People offered different solutions, which, while eventually solving the main problem, were more circuitous routes. Besides, I offered information as to the original problem for future use.

Well, HitsMOs was already set to 1. So the point is moot anyway, guys.
