Posted by: acidbrain - Sunday, February 17, 2013 4:04:10 PM

Make sure you've got the right battleship. There are several with no way of dealing damage.

That one isn't the damage=dealing one. You can also look at the code. err... AmericaVehicleBattleShipUSSBender <-use this one. But yeah... It cannot move.

[quote=precision_bomber;127124]That one isn't the damage=dealing one. You can also look at the code. err... AmericaVehicleBattleShipUSSBender <-use this one. But yeah... It cannot move.[/quote] Is it possible to mod it to make it move?

Make a locomotor for it and let it follow a waypointpath but be sure you dont get too close to the shore because it looks kinda lame when the ship goes up the beach. btw, if you want to check out some battleship stuff and how its scripted load the shellmap into wb.

i think it would be easiest to make your own inis for it. mabey take a battleship's inis, add/make a locomoter, and make a weapon for it. would probley need to make armor for it too, because the original armor is almost invincible as i remember. this may be due to crazy high hitpoints tho

Well thanks for all of your help guys. I am very bad at modding, so i have an alternative idea. Make a script to make the battleship "attack" a unit, and about 1 1/2 seconds later, the same unit gets "dealt a leathel amount of damage", once that unit gets destroyed, the battleship "attacks" another unit, and the cycle happens until all units in a certain radius are destroyed. Sorry to destroy all of your suggestions [sad] but i hate and cannot mod, without someone just giving me the code...

Hi guys, I'm still alive, but I haven't a lot of free time now to make maps. I think I have the code you need [b]SUPER-G[/b], it is a modification for [h]CINE_ChinaTankOverlord[/h] It is a Battleship with locomotor, can attack and a very nice death effect. You can use command button hunt script with this unit. Here is the code (it's a map.ini file). Hope you enjoy mate [wink] [ATTACH]1260[/Attach]

ok, this time, the map loads, but the battleship still cannot deal damage, and there isn't the hunt commandbutton either... When i extracted the file, it said something about the encryption, not sure but it was an error for sure. Plus, i looked at the ini and it says it is an [color=white]avalanche[/color] locomotor.

Use [b]CINE_ChinaTankOverlord[/b] unit, [h]don't use USA battleship unit[/h]. This modification is under CINE_ChinaTankOverlord unit, it will become a battleship. This unit haven't got command buttons, but you can use the script in world builder "Unit/Hunt/Set a specific unit to hunt" and works fine. If you want to see the weapon without scripts, you can force fire (select unit, then press ctrl+left click) Avalanche locomotor is necessary to make it go right. Make a little test with only one CINE_ChinaTankOverlord transferred to you, and put some enemies near you location, so you can test the battleship by yourself

Awesome, the ovelo- i mean battleship does deal damage, we are halfway there[smile] However, it doesn't deal enough damage to seem like a battleship, it does the amount of damage as an ovelord tank, and the rate of fire is awkward, it only fires once every 5 seconds, and out of only 1 of the 6 guns. Also, it can attack units, but only at a [b]far[/b] distance, most of the units that the battleship needs to attack are close-range, and after i attacked 3 uits from a distance, the battleship didn't want to attack at all! Is there a way to get the ship/overlord to deal MORE damage, at a faster rate of fire, using all guns, with better firing? But, thanks for all the help so far [sunglasses] [+1]

[/quote] EDIT: there is hardly a pattern as to when it wants to attack or not. It seems to attack when at a specific distance + position, then as soon as it moves it doesn't want to attack!

Just edit Battleship [b]WeaponSet[/b] (use search option in notepad to find it) Change this values: [code]WeaponSet Conditions = None Weapon = PRIMARY BattleshipBogusGun ;BattleshipTracerGun ;InfernoCannonGunUpgraded Weapon = SECONDARY BattleshipBogusGun ;BattleshipTracerGun ;InfernoCannonGunUpgraded Weapon = TERTIARY StrategyCenterGun ;PatriotMissileWeapon ;InfernoCannonGun PreferredAgainst = PRIMARY INFANTRY VEHICLE STRUCTURE PreferredAgainst = SECONDARY INFANTRY VEHICLE STRUCTURE PreferredAgainst = TERTIARY VEHICLE STRUCTURE AutoChooseSources = PRIMARY FROM_SCRIPT FROM_PLAYER FROM_AI AutoChooseSources = SECONDARY FROM_SCRIPT FROM_PLAYER FROM_AI AutoChooseSources = TERTIARY FROM_AI FROM_SCRIPT FROM_PLAYER End[/code] As you can see the weapon that has the default code is [b]StrategyCenterGun[/b], It's not a very effective weapon against nearby objects. Just change the weapon for each turret (PRIMARY/SECONDARY - Front/Rear turret)
