IceCC question

When I use the useweapon # command, it works fine, but the graphics do not. (ie. Dragoon has a random attack script in which it fires the yamato gun. The dragoon attacks, and a yamato explosion appears on the target, but no laser burst shoots from the dragoon to the target) I do not have this problem with attack25 or 26. Why does useweapon behave differently and what can I do to fix this so I can have some cool attacking graphics.

useweapon will only use the attack. Not the projectile. Thus you MUST use either attack25/attack26. (and limiting you to 2 projectile weapons per unit)

[coolpotatoes]

Is there no way to call the projectile graphics? Would it be possible to use the sprol10f (or other image related opcode) somehow right before the useweapon?
Only 2 projectiles per unit greatly disheartens me, so many awesome mod ideas shot down. Oh well.

iirc, using the sprite overlay command will spawn the projectile...


...but it won't move. :p

Yeah, sorry about that coolpotatoes but yeah that is the way that it has been programed. Hey atleast you know you don't have to waste a spot on suicide if you choose to have it on a unit:).

You guys seriously don't remember the 2 weapon option?
How could it be overlooked?

and limiting you to 2 projectile weapons per unit

2 weapon option accounted for.
