Sniper Airstrike guns!!

mockey · Post by **mockey** » Wed Apr 30, 2008 7:28 pm

Hello, I have been working on an Airstrike mod that goes along with a great skin.

Every weapon shoots an airstrioke that actually works, except the Beam and Sniper Rifels.

I set the z-coord (whatever it is)
to 50 and it acts much different than everything else.

I am doing this on Turf.map, can anyone help me?

Thanks very much!

for some reason sniper rifles and beam rifles act a little differently

don't ask me why
A more cleverer person can answer that

I noticed this with the sniper rifle

e.g. when fired, the projectiles from the sniper rifle appear very far away
or not close enough

is this the problem you are having?
EDIT: turf is a very enclosed level.
If you are shooting projectiles using rifles they are most likely hitting the roofs of buildings behind or in the direction your aiming.

That's exactly the porblem, do you know how to fix it?

Thanks again.

Honestly, I don't know

You could try by editing the z spawn coord to 100 maybe 150
also try making it lower to say 20 or 30
if that doesn't work I don't know what will

glad to help

Well, 20 and 30 didn't work, here goes 100 thanks mister heheh.

actually i remember once i did it where the sniper shot a tank shot, the coords were 5, 5, and 5.

Its worked about 1/2 to 2/3 of the time

Well, 100 didn't work, I don't think 150 will work it's probably with the y and x coordinates.

Well I'll try 5 5 and 10

Thanks.

I was about to say that

Another bit of info:
If you make the projectiles spawn far ahead of you you can alomst always hit a distance target with ease

But that would only work if you were aiming at things in the distance
not close by

Then again who spawns meteors on top of themselves

Its the result of a bitmask. There is a bit on the snipers that needs to be dissabled. Dont ask me which one cause i dont remember, havent made an air strike in a long time. It might be the bit that causes perfect accuracy when zoomed in.
