Title: +Weapon Range: tag breaks ballistics reloading
Post by: Nuke on July 04, 2004, 08:53:13 pm

to anyone having problems getting ballistic primaries to reload will be happy to know that i figured out what was causing it not to work. i finally added dock points to all my ships and noticed that the rearm ship would dock and do nothing untill i either abort arm or hit my burners :D. i found out that if you have the +Weapon Range: tag in front of $rearm rate: tag that rearming wont work, on a hunch i commented out the +Weapon Range: tag and everything works now.

It's possible you have the tags out of order.  They should be in the same order as for secondary weapons.  Commenting out the weapon range might cause bugs.

Then someone should make an official php form thing so all the tags are in order.

That's because +Weapon Range comes right after $Rearm rate.

i simply removed the flag all together and it works just fine. from what i know the +weapon range flag just tells the ai at what range it may use a weapon if its not velocity * life.
