TurretShape scripting
by Ronald J Nelson · in Torque 3D Beginner · 05/29/2014 (11:18 pm) · 0 replies
The following is copy of the script I am using. I have just been copying and using what I could find as an example. My problems are that the weapon image is not visible until after the player mounts the turret and fires. Then it is actually mounting at the root of the stand. Finally, and it is probably related to the incorrect mounting location, but I cannot control the heading and pitch of the turret.
I would appreciate any help that can be provided and feel free to use the script if helps you in something you are working on. I am just experimenting, so I'm not particularly attached to it.
Thank you in advance.
