Gunfire off center from crosshair.

You're gonna be pissed, but I found your issue. It's so simple :>

Code: Select all

rem *** CoPilot Turrents ***
ObjectTemplate.create RotationalBundle GunShipFrontGun1
(important stuff I left out)
ObjectTemplate.setMinRotation -35/-25/0                   <---------------------------\
ObjectTemplate.setMaxRotation 35/70/0                                                 |
ObjectTemplate.setMaxSpeed 15/15/0                                                    |
ObjectTemplate.setAcceleration 5000/5000/0                                             >    These are not the same
                                                                                      |
ObjectTemplate.create Camera GunShipCameraMove                                        |
ObjectTemplate.setMinRotation -35/-20/0                   <---------------------------/
ObjectTemplate.setMaxRotation 35/70/0
ObjectTemplate.setMaxSpeed 15/15/0
ObjectTemplate.setAcceleration 5000/5000/0

wow, if that is the case i will be so ashamed i overlooked that. I will make them the same when I get home tonight.

[Vilespring]

I wouldn't be surprised if it's not.
BF 1942 likes to troll me when I mod too.

Didn't work. Co-pilots firing still seems to gradually slip farther and farther away from the center.
shrug.

If anyone has a solution for this, you own my soul.

[Django]

I did some tweaks on the RepGun

Nice work! An improvement for sure. I was thinking, would it be possible to make the lasers a bundle, and then fire the bundle at where ever the center of screen is pointing? Since they would be bundled as one they should keep shape separately, correct?

[Swaffy]

Don't use fireInCameraDof because you won't get desired results. It will basically make the projectile come out of your camera and will not be offset.

You need to find a way to keep the turret pointing in the same direction as the camera, so check the min/max speeds and acceleration of both the camera and the turret.

Check my fixes above.
The two Lasercannons are lined up with the camera and the crosshair. The laserprojectiles and the muzzlefx also.
From my (GCDev-) coder side it's working now as it should do.

From what i can tell - it is better, but it still has slippage
