Weapon emplacements ?

[JamieB-[DEagle]]

Ok, 2 questions here...

1. I want to include several static gun emplacements in my map, is there an FAQ or similar on the procedure for putting them in ? I tried just placing the US and MEC "bipods" from the BF2\Objects\Weapons etc. but they didnt seem to work, are some useable and others not ?

2. Along the same lines, I noticed that smoke grenades are also on the weapons list, is there a way to leave a re-spawning supply of them around ? I tried just putting them in, but they dont even appear on the map ?

to make the mounted guns appear they have to an object spawner

Does that mean they are also tied to a control point ? My emplacements are a little way away from the nearest CP, is there a distance limit on that ?

When you place the object spawner it links it with the nearest flag. Just place it near your flag you want it to spawn with then move it to where you want it. This way you could have an object spawn by a flag on the opposite side of the map.

Nope, I dont know how to spawn a model of a weapon in game or how to set it to fire after x amount of seconds... I dont even think you can tbh..

It is a shame about the grenades, but at least the gun emplacements work now...

Did my final compile last night, so I should be able to release a beta tonight...
