Sounds cool, but from the screenshot it looks as if the SAM is really just invisible. Does it really go under ground or is it always in the same place as far as hit and collision detection goes, with a little animation that pops up?

In Tiberian Dawn, any unit could eventually destroy a SAM site. I frequently used groups of grenadiers to do it.
|
I never said that the SAM is totally immune to damage.

It would be bad form to drive over an underground structure anyway, because if an arcraft zoomed by then the missile launcher would pop up and smash in to a person or tank or something.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

i think its good that you cant walk over it and driver over it... that keeps you from getting stuck if it suddenly pops up
anyway good work  is there any chance that the way to do it will be given to the public?

Is it classified as a vehicle or structure?
There must be some way to be able to drive over it.

If you use JFW_Base_Defence_Aircraft_Only_Animated_Secondary (comming in 1.7) along with the b_samsite-up.gmax from the buildings.zip on the westwood FTP, you get (hopefully) fully working popup sam sites with everything in place.

Even though nobody asked this, the reason why you can't walk or drive over the SAM Site is because of the world box that covers the whole SAM Site, including the height that the SAM Site pops out to.
SeaMan, I've been trying to contact you on AIM, could you sign on some day? :rolleyes:

Simply, it employs the unused SAM Site logic.
As I said on other thread, the game is hardcoded to look up for certain animations for the SAM Site.
It attacks only flying vehicles. Infantry and ground vehicles are ignored.
It fires a salvo of missiles and then returns underground to reload and then pops up again to fire.
The reload/burst value must match the animation length, otherwise errors occur and the SAM starts shooting from inside the bunker.

Me and jonwil have brainstormed and I tested to find if you can animate world boxes to move, it is 100% impossible in my knowledge to animate them to move. Making them move is a big hassle as making the SAM behave more like a vehicle, and also, n00bs would stand on top of it to keep the SAM from popping out.
