READ THIS ^^^
As of 1.7, there are some new XML properties. The ones I've found are:
Missile:
lockTime
maxRange
minRange
maxTargetingAngle
maxSpeed
maxFuelTime
maxForwardThrustForce
maxHeadingAngleAdjustmentRate
maxVelocityAngleAdjustmentRate
proximityDetonationRangeMin
proximityDetonationRangeMax
function
Gun:
ammoCount
burstCount
timeBetweenBursts
muzzleVelocity
roundsPerSecond
tracerColor
spread
lifetime
damage
impactForce
bulletScale
muzzleFlash
activationGroup
Rocket:
activationGroup
finMode
selfDestructTimer
burnTimer
All Weapons:
firingDelay
Parts:
health
Not all of these are new, but a lot are.
function on missiles can be either AirToAir or AirToSurface
@Axartar cool thanks
@Axartar it does work maybe i just put the wrong typing
Oh and you can’t set lock time to zero sometimes er it to 0.001 or something small@MrShenanigans
I think it’s max speed and maxVelocityAngleAdjustmentRate @MrShenanigans
How do you make a missile more maneuverable?
Oh uh lock time dont work dont know why
Man this is an awesome information now i know mostly what to do with XML
@rexzion it will already be there
@rexzion yes it is in the explosion I think it is or explosion scalar just use xml on a missile or bomb
how do explosions work? do they have a damage radius that get weaker? does it have a "kill zone" where any part or plane caught in it will explode?
why is flamingo on the pic
@AceOfSpade eh, bummer
Not Anymore. I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. And perfect things in this case.
@Kaiteniisan
now its 100, perfect.
@WNP78 solutions:
2. We can assume that there may only be 7 tubes but there can be more than 1 rocket per tube in theory, although such a system would be rather complex
Also for 2 we can already set ammo for flares and cannons and the flares only appear to have 16 flares on them but you can set them to 999 if you felt like it.
3 / 4: I understand that such a value is illogical beyond even Simpleplanes logic but I think it would be useful for players to be able to either have an infinite fuel cheatcode (cough cough, the FSU cheatcode and the cheats in Simplerockets 2) or the ability to have truly infinite fuel for things that consume fuel like a true beast (like a huge plane with like 1000 BFE150s, for example, i know that would crash most people's games but after all gaming computers would be able to handle it)
@NexusGaming
for 3 & 4: the whole point of overload is that you can change the values in the XML outside of how they were designed to be changed in the designer. As such, you can break things by giving things unreasonable values like Inifinity or NaN.
@WNP78 some xml glitches i found:
Overload has a precision bug where things will end up being scaled to "0.999,0.998,0.999" or zomething like that and similar things happen with rotation or position and it's annoying
Ammo tag for rocket pods does not work
Ammo tag for flares and cannons is limited so you can't have infinite flares or ammo
Fuel tanks crash the game if the fuel is set to infinity or NaN
@MangoBuilds you can find the description on the guide I linked at the top, it says:
What does the selfDestructTimer do? How does it work..
@Werboithescientist You can't change missile damage. the damage variable only affects Guns. although, explosion size scales with missile size I think
How do you make missiles inflict more damage? Is it the speed or size? How???
name
@Axartar ok
@Axartar ok
@refdnv1 double check capital letters, maybe try FireWeapons. it'll give an output of one when weapons are used, NOT guns, guns have a different input which is FireGuns, good luck with your project
