You can't actually see it cause I removed it to save loading time. In TDExplosive, change AngularVel to 0. That will prevent it from rotating like a grenade, but you will get the same problem I do, where it will stay facing the same way, all the time.


Question Time!

Can anyone answer this for me please? Currently I'm working on a second setup for the Tiger, and allowing it to deliver in two different configs. Problem I'm having though is I'm making a copy of ACRocket, which is my delivery crate, but it won't show in the buy menu. I've tried adding it to craft group, setting buyable = 1 in the copy and leaving it undefined for the original, and lots of different mix and match versions of that. I even tried copying the whole slab of code for the crate, and just renaming it, that didnt work. To go out of my way, I even tried giving its own .ini file, but nothing. It will only show the first delivery crate that is read. My mind is gonna essplode!!!!

Thanks! It's alright, I have plenty of time to work on it since I'm on paid holidays, lol. It's actually very close to another update, once I get this crate problem fixed.

hmn. what are you doing to the rocket?
to make it preloaded, first of all define the original actor, in this case the ACRocket. make it buyable = 0 if you only want the preloaded version to show up.
then outfit a copy with a new presetname. define the presetname first.
so like:
Code:
AddActor = ACRocket
[tab]PresetName = base thing
<stuff>
[tab]Buyable = 0

AddActor = ACRocket
[tab]CopyOf = base thing
[tab]PresetName = outfitted version
[tab]Buyable = 1
[tab]AddInventory = HDFirearm
etc.

that code shouldnt work, as it was just typed spammily, but you should get the idea.
hope it helps..

Yeah, I've tried that.
I have a basic delivery crate which isn't buyable, then I have the CopyOf which has an added gib, which is the specific chopper. The addInventory thing just makes it explode for some reason. I've also tried just taking out the extra gib and doing an AddInventory, just to test if the crate would even show, but it still won't??

I did the exact same concept for just the helicopter, and spawning the specific helicopter out of another thing, they both worked. But it seems only the crate has the problem. I could post the slab of code here if it's allowed?

And why you have an empty line before AddGib ?

         FilePath = Base.rte/Actors/BigCrash3.wav

I have only one complaint: the gun needs to be more towards the center of the helicopter. As it stands, the gun basically moves really far when you turn around. This makes it difficult to shoot things below you, since it throws of your aim hugely if you're aiming downward.

Deliver ARH & Deliver HAP are copies of Delvivery Crate, as for Spawn ARH & Spawn HAP, they are defined earlier in the ini file, they both work fine though, as i've tested them separately. As for the empty line it was left there by accident when I was chopping and changing trying to figure out what was wrong, but it shouldn't make a difference I think?

Yeah I know it's a bit unco there, but I'm just going to leave it there, a bit like a weakness, especially since it shouldn't even be able to have the angle range it current has. Reminds me of something I saw whilst browsing these forums. "It's not a bug, It's a feature!" haha. But thank you for the constructive crit!

... right. Okay. Complaint #2: the missile launcher has too much recoil. Really, it should have little to no recoil, seeing as how its basically an open tube missile launcher, attached to a massive helicopter.

2. When I shoot with missiles and the mini gun, it sorta pushes the chopper back. The kickback is a little too strong.
-That's only due to the missiles, I'll have that fixed for sure in the next release


It's pretty much fixed now, I'm just waiting to fix the multiple delivery crate problem before I update.

I'm glad that barrel rolling fun has been added. I was worried I wasn't having barrel rolling fun.
:D

I still want parachutes or thrusters added to the delivery box. But, not necessary.

And man, that barrel rolling is one deadly technique to kill dropships.
