Portable turret weapon not damaging

ZoomV · Post by **ZoomV** » Mon Aug 17, 2015 6:37 pm

So I equipped a portable turret with a autofire weapon that fires a emitter ordnance. However the weapon only applies damage while the the portable turret is still in the air and has not settled on the ground. Once the turret is on the ground, it continues firing but the weapon does no damage and does not apply the emitter's effect.

Note this is not the same flamethrower weapon as in my other thread.

First off, since it's a building that doesn't make use of animation mshs, get rid of that AnimationBank line in the weapon ODF.

Also, what's that msh that the turret itself is using? Is it stock? I know that com_weap_inf_dropturret.msh exists, but I'm not sure about imp_weap_inf_dropturret.msh - Windows couldn't find it when I ran a search for it in the stock sides directory. What I think might be the problem is that if it's a custom msh whose aimer nodes aren't placed in the right positions, the turret could be simply firing into (or under) the ground or something strange like that.

imp_weap_inf_dropturret.msh is the stock dropturret but it's taking a different texture and is scaled slightly smaller. The texture change was done via hex, and the scaling was done via .msh.option so I doubt it's the aimer.

What about this? Did you try it, and if so, did anything change?

Have you at least tried removing the scale parameter?

I did it and it now works properly when it lands on a object. If it comes to rest on the terrain it does not damage. (although not for a lack of shooting)
