Hello there,

I recently took the first steps into ren modding.
I remember a server sided mod where beacons could deploy turrets. Realism aside, it gave a nice new twist to gameplay.
Now is my question quite obvious, how do i recreate this with the given options in leveledit? My attempts failed. It doesn't neccesarily have to be a server sided mod.

Yes, i've used the search button to find the awnser, but all topics about this subject had a dead end.

help appreciated

Follow My beacon drop tutorial.

Use this in the text cinematic file.

-400 Create_Real_Object, 4, "Nod_Turret_MP_Improved"
-400 Attach_Script, 4, "M05_Nod_Gun_Emplacement"

You can change Nod_Turret_MP_Improved to the preset name of the turret you want. And you can get rid of -400 Attach_Script, 4, "M05_Nod_Gun_Emplacement" if you already attached scripts to the turret to make it attack. Or if you don't want it to attack on its own then also get rid of it.

thanks guys. just what i was looking for

last few questions:
i got the part where -400 has something to do with timings. Is there a way to easily calculate from seconds to this?

secondly, does M05_Nod_Gun_Emplacement have the same effect as M00_Base_Defence?

At the settings of an object, what does weapon error do exactly?
5.000 for example.

M00_Base_Defence would probably work a little better. I'm not sure of the exact time the numbers are. I ussually just test it in a cnc_c130drop first until i get good timing.

As for the weapon error I think it's the accuracy but I'm not posotive.

"M00_Base_Defence" doesnt exist in the latest scripts version, however, "JFW_Base_Defence" does exactally the same thing.

What?? Were taking out scripts now? I assume Jon put a pointer in there to load the JFW couterpart. Otherwise, messy sea's a head.
