DCX - Homing missiles

This was a dev test when I got the homing missile code to work in DCX. If you look closely, you can see some gray triangles which explain how the guided missile stuff in DCX works.

We lost the original missile code during a server crash (the server that hosted our file archives) and I was never able to properly replicate the homing missiles afterwards.

This video does show that at one point I did indeed have the homing missiles working pretty damn well.

There's one missed shot shown and the homing missiles weren't 100% accurate which is something I actually liked. In the real world, even smart weapons aren't always 100% accurate.

Nice work Zeuser

but, looking at the code, I am getting CONFUSED, lol, How the fuck do springs guide the missile ?

If you look closely you can see some grey triangles. Those triangles collide with objects in the air, like planes. Each triangle is mounted on a spring. So when one of the triangles collides it pushes on the spring which in turn pushes on the missile. This pushing force deviates the missile and points it in the right direction. This works because the missile's weight is 1/1000 that of a plane or helicopter. The heavier object pushes around the lighter one.

ok zeuser im a big fan of ur work, but i have 2 say the homing code was horrible. when i tried it in DCFX:JA i never got one kill. Maybe u can fix it in DCZ??? looking forward 2 that

[zeuserx]

Yeah. Something happened to the original code and it got lost somewhere. The one that was released wasn't the code I used to film this demo. Not sure what really happened.

I think you're confused. This has nothing to do with the map. That's just a stripped down version of Bocage. The homing missiles is code I wrote for DCX.

Hey, when I get this mod can I get ride of dc finale and just have dcx, or do i need all 3. and that's nice that they fanily got homming misales in.
