BeamLaser and cylindertargetting?

[wedge72]

is there any way to get the beam lasers to use 2d targetting?

Probably, mess with cylinderTargetting.

But this doesn't give the laser more length, it will target things it cannot hit.

but a cylinder is three-dee and he demands twee-dee.

even with the cylinder targeting turned on, it still seems to want to use a sphere :/ I have a flying unit and the higher it goes the smaller its attack circle gets. I am beginning to think it would be easier just to use a lasercannon instead. I just liked the idea of the beamlaser look better

heightmod = 0

Note that at extreme distances, beamlasers can expire short of their targets.

Thank you, I haven't had time to try it yet. Been busy with changes at work, I'll post back afterwards!
