fire
« on: 18 Jul 2005, 17:17:40 »
okay you have the command to fire as in
unit fire ["GrenadesMuzzle","GrenadeLauncher","GrenadeLauncher"]
not as in dofire

but with this ive tried using dotarget and then this command but instead of firing at the target i told them to they just aim randomly up and launch a grenade as far as they can.
but i want them to hit a specific position i dont what it to be really acurate just close because in real life your ot going to hit the target 100%

so how i can make the unit actually hit the target ?
also could i make it work with onmapsingleclick so they target a possible marker ? where you clicked on the map then fire ?

I don't think you can create soldiers underground, they will pop up on the surface.
Yeah OK,  with a setpos loop script it will work, but the last thing we need is a superfast setpos script no?

Actually, i won't care to dl a tiny addon like invisible targets, they are very usefull, just like the editorupgrade102 a must-have is for missionmakers.

well the idea is for the campaign and i would love it to be addon free so this might be a bit tricky no matter what idea i try i always need an addon shame
is there any kind of list of what units can shoot at cause if so i supose i could just change the script so instead of creating the invisible addon create say a gamelogic but im pretty sure they cant be targetted nor shot at
so does anyone know of something that could be used instead of the invisible addon ? id ont mind of it can be seen aslong as its not a massith tank target or anything too noticable

i suppose the loon wouldnt be too bad use the nearest object to find a bush setpos him there and setunitpos down would work
invisible helipads cant be fired at ive tried many times before you can target them though i think
