Title: Problems with AT Weapons
Post by: 24Gamer on 19 Jan 2005, 12:59:30
Hi, im currently working on a mission involving an attack on a convoy (as usual) and i cant get the AT weapon to lock on to any of the tanks (East soldier against M1A1), it can lock on to the destroyed vehicles but obviously that isnt any use, i was thinking it was maybe a conflict between sides (West weapon not locking onto a West Player) so i tried both East and West AT weapons, i even changed the side of the ammo crate i was picking it up from but still no luck, so my question is why isnt it working? :P

What AT-weapons are you using? Are you sure they can Lock on target?  ::)

if you're using veteran mode, and you have not activated "auto-guide AT" that won't be able with all the launchers.

and i think the editor only runs veteran, I'm not too sure about that but I'll give it a try.

you can manually switch it to novice by playing a mission in novice mode(just start it and quit) and then going to the editor

and, yes, i am in cadet mode (Auto Guide AT on), it can lock on to empty vehicles just not west ones :(

you're using the strela or the Carl-Gustav Launcher?
