tracers toward the sky
« on: 26 Dec 2004, 21:19:12 »
well, i thought that long ago i saw a wonderful AA tracer script in the Ed's Depot, but now i cannot find it.  :(  so thats why im here.

i want to make a mission where as you fly over and area a sh*t load of tracers pop up at you, kinda like flying into an AA trap.  I know that i need to createVehicle (or camCreate) a "BulletSingle", etc for the weapon type and I need to setVelocity it to make it travel in a certain direction, but i can't get the velocity to change fractionally like an HD weapon (ex traveling on a slightly different path each time.

so how would i get my tracers to travel at a different path each time?  I couldn't get the
Code: [Select]
format["setVelocity [%1,%2,%3]",_xvelocity,_yvelocity,_zvelocity] to work. :P

thanx for the help mates :)
