Spring RTS Engine

I was wondering if it is possible to make a homing laser/cannon? This would be great for certain units with "smart" aiming if it works....

Anyhow lasers making curves and circling in on something sounds great

Nope.

You can make a cannon or laser graphic for your missiles.

But they would be forced to have a smoke trail...

I want ballistic weapons with smoke trails too.

Interesting....

Homing lasers are sooooo unrealistic that i will scream loud if i ever see that.

Realism is a bane to all games!

In my opinion - there should be 100% free modding capacities - as in you should be able to do even the silliest stuff such as homing lasers, cluster-bombs that unleash beams like some kind of lasershow and so on.

It really opens a lot of possibilies.

o.0 Homing beams were on the zoids game Zoids: Battle Legends, it is still badass....

fireworks!

i think read: hope that what i read was true that JC is working on a more customizeable explosion setup... more freedom with particles, or something

homing lasers are a homing of the weapon before it fires... right? its not like any scifi lasers are actual "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation" lasers anyways...

they could be homing bullets, that happen to be tracer rouunds... i guess...

Imperium Galactica (2) had homing lasers, if the turbolaser shot missed a fighter it would turn around and try it a second time.

I don't see why we can't use all tags for all weapons, homing lasers, spreading missiles (instead of wobble), anti-nuke flamers, ...
