Variable; Missile - HWRM/KarosGraveyard GitHub Wiki

Syntax

<MissileTable> = StartMissileConfig()
<MissileTable>.<Variable> = <Value>
(Can also be written as <MissileTable>["<Variable>"] = <Value>)

Description

This is a list of all variables present in .miss files but not present in .ship files. Missiles share a lot of variables with ships; I haven't duplicated those here, but someone else may want to. There may also be a few variables here that show up in both types of files, but aren't listed on the Ship Variables page yet.

Example

NewShipType = StartMissileConfig()
NewShipType.mainEngineMaxSpeed = 300

Variables

See below...


The following list needs a lot of work. If anyone has information about any of these values, or knows of any values that aren't on the list yet, please help fill in the details. Thanks!

Variables

  • weaponName = <sName>: The name of the weapon that spawns this missile, such as "Vgr_HeavyFusionMissileLauncher". Note that multi-stage missiles have the same WeaponName for each stage; for example, both "Hgn_ClusterTorpedoA" and "Hgn_ClusterTorpedoB" have "Hgn_TorpedoLauncher" as their weaponName.
  • NewShipType.noCollisionTime=1.5
  • lifeTime = <fTime>: How long, in seconds, this munition will exist before it vanishes.
  • launchTime = <fTime>: How long, in seconds, it takes for this munition to launch. It won't start changing direction, aquiring targets, etc. until this time has passed. Seems to be used to provide a period for the launch animation (if any) to play, but may have other uses.
  • detectionDistance = <fDistance>: Maximum range at which this munition can detect and aquire targets. You can do some very evil things with this.
  • proximityDetonationDist = <fDistance>: I can't get this to work.
  • clusterDistance = <fDistance>: Range from target at which this munition will detonate and release its submunitions.
  • numberSubMunitions = <iNrof>: Number of submunition packages this munition carries. For example, a multistage missile would have 1 and a Hiigaran cluster torpedo has 4.
  • subMunitionName = <sName>: Name of the submunition package to spawn when this munition detonates, for example, "Hgn_ClusterTorpedoB".
  • clusterAngle = <?>: Probably the angle to deploy submunitions at.
  • NewShipType.trackingSpeedMultiplier=1.8
  • density = <?>
  • NewShipType.slowdownFactor=0.5
  • targetAngle = <?>
  • spiralsPerSecondMin = <?>
  • spiralsPerSecondMax = <?>
