*Note: This tutorial is NOT a continued version of the bombing tanks tutorial.

This tutorial shows you how to bomb anything in SP, like walls, flaks, nebelwerfers and tanks. See the sound fix guide to get your sounds working.

Let's get started!

Today you're going to learn how to bomb a wall and a flak 88.

First make a room with lights and an info_player_start. I made a wall that prevents the player from reaching the objects. This wall will be bombed. Make the wall a script object and give it:

Duplicate this wall and make it look destroyed. Give it:

When you're done, it should look like this:

Add an explosion fx for the wall. Select it in the 2D view. I used fx-->explosion-->bombwall. Again give it:

Put a small brush with texture "no draw" from the common folder. Make it a script object. Give it:

Ok, now the harder part. Make a script model at the foot of the wall with:

Note that you don't have to add any $explosion_fx apart from the bombing tanks tutorial. Then make a trigger_use around the bomb model. Give it a "targetname" of "bomb1_trigger".

Everything is completed for the bombing of a wall. Add a script origin above the bomb with "targetname" "obj1". This will be our objective.

Now we are going to make a simple flak 88 to bomb. Put the flak 88 turret on the flak 88 base. You need to align them into position. Then give the turret:

Then make a destroyed flak 88 turret and give it:

Your flak 88 should look like this now:

Again add an fx using fx-->explosion-->tank. Give it:

Once again put a small brush with texture "no draw" from the common folder. Make it a script object. Give it:

Now a script model:

Make a trigger_use around the bomb model. Give it a "targetname" of "bomb2_trigger".

Add a script origin above the bomb with "targetname" "obj2". This will be our second objective of bombing the flak.

Now for the scripting. Save your map as test_bombingstuff or anything.

//I learned to bomb stuff!!!

main:

level waittill prespawn

exec global/exploder.scr

level waittill spawn

$player item weapons/thompsonsmg.tik
$player ammo smg 1000

waitthread global/items.scr::add_item "explosive" //gives player explosives
waitthread global/objectives.scr::add_objectives 1 2 "Bomb the wall to get in." $obj1.origin
thread obj1
end

obj1:
$bomb1_trigger waittill trigger
$bomb1 model "animate/explosive.tik"
$bomb1 playsound explosive
$player loopsound bombtick
$player stopwatch 5
wait 5
$player stoploopsound bombtick
$bomb1 playsound explode_tank
$bomb1 remove
waitthread global/exploder.scr::explode 1
radiusdamage $hurtobject1 256 384
waitthread global/objectives.scr::add_objectives 1 3 "Bomb the wall to get in." $obj1.origin
wait 2
waitthread global/objectives.scr::add_objectives 2 2 "Bomb the flak 88." $obj2.origin
thread obj2
end

obj2:
$bomb2_trigger waittill trigger
$bomb2 model "animate/explosive.tik"
$bomb2 playsound explosive
$player loopsound bombtick
$player stopwatch 7
wait 7
$player stoploopsound bombtick
$bomb2 playsound explode_tank
$bomb2 remove
waitthread global/exploder.scr::explode 2
radiusdamage $hurtobject2 256 384
waitthread global/objectives.scr::add_objectives 2 3 "Bomb the flak 88." $obj2.origin
wait 1
thread levelend
end

levelend:
waitthread global/objectives.scr::current_objectives 0
exec global/missioncomplete.scr test_bombingstuff
end

Now you're done! Compile your map and play!

*Note: To bomb more stuff, just do the same method as the wall/flak. Remember to change the #set values, e.g bombing a third object will have #set 3 properties, the bomb name should be changed to "bomb3" and the "no draw" brush should be "hurtobject3". Coming to the scripting, the third object should have this after $bomb3 remove:

waitthread global/exploder.scr::explode 3

Everything should be working. Enough of all these, if you don't understand, dowload the example map which includes a wall, a flak 88, a nebelwerfer and a tiger tank.
