1) Yes, just spawn a bazooka and then do local.mybazooka anim fire

or local.mybazooka shoot

2) Yes, try waittill ontarget but in my experience it sometimes crashes

Alternatively you could easily script a waittill ontarget condition yourself

Example

Code: Select all

waittillontarget local.gun local.targetent:
  while !(waitthread isontarget local.gun local.targetent)
    wait 0.20
end

isontarget local.gun local.targetent:
  local.vectotarget = vector_normalize (local.targetent.origin - local.gun.origin)
  local.gunvec = local.gun.forwardvector

  local.dotvec = local.gunvec * local.vectotarget
  // 2 * arccos 0.95 gives the fov that's considered 'on target' (+- 10 degrees)
  if(local.dotvec >= 0.95)
    end 1
  else
    end 0
end

You should spawn a bazooka, not a script_model with the bazooka model

Like this:
local.myzooka = spawn weapons/bazooka.tik

errm

//
//local.rockets = spawn weapons/kt2/bazooka.tik
//local.rockets.angles = local.plane.angles

i was using that?

isnt that what u mean though:S
