I'm curious as to how to control the timer on a Super Weapon, be it in map.ini OR scripting. Right now I'm making a test map for my stuff and I would like my SCUD Storm to be ready as soon as the map is loaded, and not have to wait after firing to start firing again.

You could add this to a map.ini [code=plain] SpecialPower SuperweaponScudStorm Enum = SPECIAL_SCUD_STORM ReloadTime = 1000 ;1 second InitiateSound = ScudStormInitiated PublicTimer = Yes ViewObjectDuration = 40000 ViewObjectRange = 250 RadiusCursorRadius = 200 ShortcutPower = Yes AcademyClassify = ACT_SUPERPOWER End [/code]

Not really sure, but check the 1st USA mission of Generals, the GLA used the Scud Storm on the town civies, you probably will get what you want. Or even the generals challenges, laser one, supweapon and nuke, they all use their superweapons at the intro.
