I always wondered what the TAG-C missle was for - it doesn't appear in any missions, and no ships could carry it, IIRC. In the weapons.tbl file, it has $Tag level 3. (TAG-A and TAG-B missles both have tag level 2).
So I tweaked ships.tbl, created a mission and used it, but nothing happened, no TAG effect, no damage etc.
Today I looked at the code (file: Ship/ShipHit.cpp, lines 2335-2353), which says (edited for brevity):
if (weapon.tag_level == 1) {
// do TAG level 1 stuff
} else if (weapon.tag_level == 2) {
// do TAG level 2 stuff
} else {
// do nothing
}
hehe, guess that was one of those features that never made it into the released product, but never got taken out of all the files... Looking forward to finding more
