Still interested in having say... an Mg42 shoot a Mustang that you would "jump" into just like a Wasserfall, or I think an SA3? And when it blows up you go back to the original Mg42 firing position. So basicly putting the wasserfall into Van. BF is what I'm trying to do. (SS of course)

EDIT: Like with a ketten, a plane as the "rocket", and in Van. bf. BTW, before you say impossible I have been able to make a Wasserfall shoot a Stuka, however haven't added it to a new vehicles successfully. AND I HAVE SEEN THIS DONE WITH VAN. BF BEFORE!

Lets see if i can follow ...

Serverside i changed the Guided Missile Tomahawk into a plane which would put u back on the destruyer when shot down, so the way do do this in vanilla bf would be to "recreate" that firearms code including the vehicle of ur choice as projectile, then add it to the vehicle using ACTIVE.

right ?

the Wasserfall is a guided rocket from secret weapons ?

EXACTLY!!! And yes the wasserfall is from sw.. im using that code as my example. I have been able to get an Mg42 to shoot out a wasserfall easily, but thats only for sw. I need this to be ss for those not running sw, which is my problem.


BTW Just in case you were wondering what I am gunna use this for:
I'm going to mod Aberdeen to be a "Plane Training Map". This way when you get shot down you just shoot out another one.

try this on for size, i dont have time to test it ...

oddly... nothing at all happened! No CTD and no success. Just a normal MG projectile!
