Ooook, well, to get back on subject does anyone have any Ideas on what I could Use the first SHP for?? I was thinking a Prism Research Facility but I don't know anyone got any others????

[need my speed]

A Grand Cannon like defense system for another counter. They are much like the normal Prism Tower but you automatically get 3 of them that link togetehr and fire 1 big prism beam. owever, they can't link together with other buildings, only the 3 Prism Towers on the building.

Sorry if you don't understand what I mean, but first I am not English and second, I am so sick that I got a black out for a few seconds just by sitting on a chair...

[BlitzKrieg]

I understand what Your saying but Is that possible to have that? Or do you mean just have the linking ones animation and just change the weapons distance???

I'll try to explain it better...Normal Prism Towers can link with other normal Prism Towers to increase their range / damage. Right, this new Prism Tower has 3 Prism Towers in 1 building, so if you make a charge up animation (like the Tesla Coil) where the Prism Towers link together, and just increase the damage and range of this new Prism Tower building, you have it. However, this new Prism Tower building can only link with the Prism Towers in their own building. So yes, it is possible by adding only a charge up animation.

And I'm afraid I can't help you with that because I als don't understand it (you probaly understand it more than me)...

[BlitzKrieg]

[EcclairLS]

the building itself has no primary weapon....

[BlitzKrieg]

well, not to be rude or anything but How does that help me? really? I mean I didn't know it was supposed to so what do I set it as? could you be a little more specific please?

------------------------------

Oh, hehehe forgot to read bottom of the tutorial lol....my bad I should be able to get it now, I'll ask if I can't...

------------------------------

Well, It'll build and everything but once I go to fire it, it IE's So I'm guessing it has to do with weapon,

;Weapon
[EMPCannon]
Projectile=Invisible
Damage=50
Warhead=EMPulse
Range=100
ROF=15

;Warhead
[EMPulse]
Damage=1000 ; Amount of time
Spread=15 ; Spread is radius of EM pulse effect.
EMEffect=yes
Verses=0%,0%,0%,100%,100%,100%,0%,0%,0%,100%,100%

I'm not sure if this is even close to right.... :/ the EMP Weapon tutorial isn't that clear (in my opinion)... is the EMEffect=yes supposed to be on the weapon, warhead or both??

Edited by BlitzKrieg, 24 March 2008 - 01:54 AM.

[EcclairLS]

the damage should go in the weapon... not in warheads >_>
and spread does not work anyone... use CellSpread=....

and EMEffect on warheads only..

Edited by n0th1nG sp3c1aL, 24 March 2008 - 04:32 AM.

[BlitzKrieg]

well, I'll try it that way even though it says to use Spread= in NPatch Tutorial anyways...

[Nighthawk]

Use CellSpread. The NPatch tutorial is incorrect - it gives the old TS Spread tag, which doesn't work anymore in RA2.

[BlitzKrieg]

Well, I did what Special Said and It still IE's When I fire it :/ any ideas on why??

Edited by BlitzKrieg, 24 March 2008 - 01:36 PM.

[EcclairLS]

look on the codes in TS...

[Allied General]
