Something's strange about Rocket Launcher

[DarkVen9109]

Yeah as what I know the Rocket Launcher from Tiberian Dawn sometimes rotate its turret while sometimes it doesn't.

There are a number of strange things about TD.

[Nyerguds]

It's a unit setting. The SSM has it enabled too.

Hold on. I gotta check one of your inis which is the one that is responsible on rotating turrets.

[Nyerguds]

What? Check the unit stats I just posted. It's the "HasTurret=Yes" option.

[DarkVen9109]

Ohh I didn't check that one out and also the Bold word "No Turret Lock" and HasTurret right?

[Nyerguds]

and also the Bold word "No Turret Lock" and HasTurret right?

That is in no way a correct English sentence, since it contains no verb anywhere, so I have no idea what you mean, but, sure

[DarkVen9109]

Too lazy to type my sentence

[Myg]

I doubt its just the settings.

 

I'd say its a special firing routine, like the mammoth tank's missle salvo.

[DarkVen9109]

same here. But still, the Mammoth is still not a threat to infantries when it fires its Mammoth Tusk. It only attacks units

[Nyerguds]

Myg, I just SAID it's that setting. I tested that stuff.

 

As for the Mammoth Tank, that's not special behaviour either, but just how the game handles secondary weapons. The only thing special about the Mammoth that's not in its basic settings is the autohealing.

 

But still, the Mammoth is still not a threat to infantries when it fires its Mammoth Tusk. It only attacks units

Ehh? I don't know where you got that idea, but it's utterly wrong. The mammoth tank fires the missiles at any target it's not directly looking at, simply because the missiles can curve towards their target, and thus can be fired before the tank is fully facing its opponent.

 

It does this just as much to infantry as to units or buildings.

[DarkVen9109]

I got the idea based on my previous observations when I was playing Tiberian Dawn.
