I mean't having the call-in signal as a bomb, then spawn a regular actor from the sky.

It would not be very smooth though, I think it would be a lot better if it was an actor. I just can't seem to figure out how.

Ok. Make a bomb, then attach this script to it:
Code:
function Update(self)
    self.StoreX = self.Pos.X
end

function Destroy(self)
    local spawn = CreateACRocket("Bunker Buster");
    spawn.Pos.X = self.StoreX;
    spawn.Pos.Y = 10;
    MovableMan:AddActor(spawn);
end


Or something like that.

I'll try, I will get back to you soon.


Update, thanks to Roast Veg, (I used that lua attachment) I have an extra special update here!

*No more drop zones! Use the "Bunker Buster Caller" to call in Bunker Busters!
*Fixed gibs. It breaks now, not fall apart like before.
*Added the 'Original' bunker buster to the list of craft in the build menu.
*Made this. See attachment:

is there anyway to make the bunker buster faster when its in air and slower when it is piercing through materials so it can be more realistic. Its still a great mod btw

Yes, I will change that now.
It's just a matter of changing the threshold for the ability to force the velocity of the object.

Update

*Lua tweaks
*Stopped the "Bunker BusterA" showing up in the buy menu.

THANK YOU for adding no drop zones for these! The mod is terrific, especially helpful when you don't want to risk sending a troop into a building.

Thanks for the feed-back!
Although you may be disappointed, I didn't completely get rid of drop limits, I just added a caller that sends in the bunker buster, to
balance the thing out I had to remove digging for the dropped bunker buster.

But the crafts still dig.

I can change this for you in about 10 seconds if you want.

Why not have digging for a higher price? It would balance out if you do it right.

Sorry for latency, I was out.

Here you go, just overwrite.

But you would still be able to win instantly, being able to dig without drop zones would mean you could drop a caller right over the enemy brain.

That = instant win.

That's not a good way to balance by any means. An alternative would be to make the bunker buster require a large time investment, giving a large amount of time for a defender to neutralise the threat. Making a weapon use this method would be significantly more complex, however.

I could make it randomly change position so that it would be inaccurate.
But I have no idea how to do that.
