Bomb hit points

[Kodakk]

ok, ive noticed this
the bombs and missiles on an airplane are static, not that hard to find out
but when you shoot it disappears and a new one (the actual missile) appears and thats what is fired.
But would it be possible to make the actual missile or bomb on the plane
that way if ur sitting there, maybe with an m95 or something
you can hit the bomb of a plane (by chance at times) and it will explode
would be a cool idea and would be fun if implemented
and it would not undergo serious Tking issues or nething as AT missiles can still kill a plane with 1 hit, and if som1 blew up their own plane it could inflict more point loss on that player.
Post your thoughts.

Re: Bomb hit points

So basically, it would be adding an extra hit zone to the plane where the bombs/missles are mounted. But I'm not sure if those parts are associated with the plane model or not. From what you describe (shooting one off the plane, and a different one replaces it), they are two separate models "attached" together. Then when the pilot drops a bomb, the bomb model is erased and replaced with the bomb munition, which does the damage.

I don't know much about the models or programming, but that's what I think is happening. They would have to make is so that the bomb/missle models attached to the plane had hit boxes, and explosive damage.

Re: Bomb hit points

YAY
u understand it lol
yea, it would basically engulf the plane into an explosion
so infantry can atleast have a slight increase in effectiveness against planes
so just add the hitpoints and explosion effects
wow-i could make a mod for this
ooo---and this is for the wrong section
but im trying to make skydivers... and im trying to give them smoke trails when they are damaged, how do you do that? and how do u change smoke color?
