Variable Ordnances
Posted: Thu Jul 03, 2008 7:52 am
Just a quick question, is it possible to do the following:
a) give a weapon more than two ordnances (without charging), so secondary, primary and more.
b) Give ordnances variable velocities/lifespans, so they have a speed between two values or a lifespan between two values.
This is for a gunship with flak guns. They work fine but the explosions happen in four ‘bars’, and I want them to cover a bigger area, so like:
>> ** ** **** * *** * ** ** *** - spread out
rather than:
>> ** ** ** ** - clumped in four 'bars'
* = explosions
>> = gunship
