rocket launcher, possible?

Post by BillyGoat »

:twisted: bahh. I want to make a rocket luncher. i dont care about bitmaps thus far, just the mechanics. i thaught of cloning a sling and a rock or something and having the rock be destroyed and have it launch a fireball. mabe have triggers on all the floor spaces that destroy the rock. any ideas anyone???

Wait for 0.35 and you can customise all the attacks. But yes,m the cloned sling with a cloned rock as ammunition would be the way to go. A cloned rock that breaks into a fireball on contact - this is possible already (it behaves like a FUL potion, in other words)

Yes you'll have to wait until V0.35 to do this properly. With that version, you can clone a fireball spell and give it graphics that look like a rocket. Then create a new object (the rocket launcher) with an attack method that shoots out your new spell....

In the meantime, then you can use the rock / sling method, but obviously, when it hits its target you won't then get the firey explosion!
