[Solved] How to increase Number of Weapons on a fortress?

[REZ]

Hello,

I did add a new Fortress called X4 Fortress to my test07 MOD.
Finally it shall carry 4 Weapons.
For my example I chose the Tank Killer.
I added 2 Tank Killers to it ... but both at the center... they are laying each other.

structureweapons.txt

Code: Select all

X-Super-Missile_copy1,Rocket-HvyA-T,0,0,0,0
X-Super-Missile_copy1,Rocket-HvyA-T,0,0,0,0

How can I edit the stwpfcan.pie (Fortress pie), so that it carrys 2 or even 4 weapons.
Is that possible with WMIT?
I could not set that up.
How does that work to set up mounting-points for weapons?

Might someone know help?

Have a nice day,

The maximum number of weapons anything can have is 3 -- and this limit is hard-coded.

Second, the .pie file you want to use for the structure would need to specify that it has 3 weapon mount points. How that is done I have no idea.

That's the best answer I can give. Anyone?

You will need to add connectors for each weapon.

I think i had 4 machineguns in a bunker in some version of wzmini. Not sure what is the real limit for structures.

Really? o.O First I've heard of more than 3 on an item. Heh. Learn something new every day!

Hello,

a fortress with 4 mounts fot weapons.
In this case 4 Tankkiller Rocketlauncher

@ NoQ
The wzmini MOD was a great help for comparing how your bunker with 3 MGs is set up.
Cool. THANK YOU A LOT

Now the changes I did to my test07 MOD are (perhaps this might help other people with the same purpose like me):

structures.txt

Code: Select all

X-Super-Missile_copy1,DOOR,Level All,HARD,0,2,2,Concrete,1600,3,15,3200,10,1600,10,100,255,1,ZNULLECM,FortressSensor,4,STWPFCAN5.PIE,0,0,4

structureweapons.txt

Code: Select all

X-Super-Missile_copy1,Rocket-HvyA-T,Rocket-HvyA-T,Rocket-HvyA-T,Rocket-HvyA-T,0

and the fortress PIE manually added the connectors with Notepad++
stwpfcan.pie

Code: Select all

...
200 3 65 64 62 64 0 127 50 63 100
	200 3 65 62 63 64 0 63 100 0 50
CONNECTORS 4
	0 50 129
	50 0 129
	0 -50 129
	-50 0 129

I do attach the test07 MOD file, incase someone might take a look at it for own experiments.
Second I do attach 2 screens of this new Fortress.

Rock On
