I believe this is because you can now guide the missles inflight.

ZOD said:Just got done messin around in T2 Ven mod Four Way CnH with bots. Mmmm 4 way CnH
Actually someone mentioned in another thread how they wanted a 3 Way CTF mod for T:V, which as most of us from T1 know doesn't work.Man I'm confused. Isnt that a UT gametype? (I like the idea)

So I took a quick look at CnH and decided it wouldn't take long to convert a map and get the code in to make 4 team CnH. Bot were a bit of a pain in the ass, but they work. Pretty fun with 4 teams. Only problem is the T2 objective hud is only made for 2 teams so it will only show the first two teams names/scores. So I popped in a message to show scores.
Dammit man, go with the simple code that works. While working with the Grappler for my T1 Vengeance mod I came up with 6 completely different methods, including F=M*V^2, and none worked better than a simple scaled impulse towards the hook position.Amadeu5 said:Somehow I'm convinced that the only reason the m*v^2/r thing doesn't work that the values are not on the right scale. I'm going to experiment with finding the right multipliers for a day or two for sure. If I can't find them, I'll do a rough estimate similar to the beta 4 hook, but I'm not going to be very happy with that and might continue experimenting.
Amadeu5 said:Jim, I think the T:V hook does nothing but winch, as in you won't get closer to the center faster than the normal reel speed (unless you jet/boost or w/e).
Plas, I'd really like to see your code anyway. Email it to shiti@freemail.hu and I'll take a look at it when I get home.
I'm not saying I don't believe you, because you probably have a lot more experience at how such a thing can work, but I'm unfortunately a stubborn oaf who only learns from his own failures. I'm gonna take your word though and not try anything fancy until the rest is working.
Last post for now. Bye all, see you on Monday.
