A few questions:

1. Is it possible to make the explosion of the area effect bigger? I tried changing:
Splashexplosion.startscale = 0.05;
Splashexplosion.durationscale = 800.0;
Splashexplosion.endscale = 2.0;

But it doesnt work.

2. I see many mods that have fire after the bullet (like tower of babylon or casle war)

How do I do that?

I two do the same but the area was unseen

Bigger value in the sizescale makes the explosion image to be bigger.

 

                                        

                                        splashprojectile.sizeScale = 0.6;

                                        

 

Splasharea is an invisible explosion area from where the tanks get damaged.

 

                                        

                                        splashprojectile.splashArea = 2.0;

                                        

 

Or try your code but splashprojectile instead. (^took that from triv's post)

Anyone else? Splashprojectile.sizeScale = 0.6; only makes projectile bigger. I need the exploision to be bigger.

Anyone van anser my second question?
I''m dutch so I cant explain exacly what I mean.

This is what I mean by fire after the bullet:

You can't change the explosion of the area effect bigger, because its resource are a.dts, but IF you have changed the.dts to an image file, for example.jpg. You can adjust the size of explosion.
Use this or any other image and you can change the explosion size.

 

                                        

                                        splashexplosion.resource = "~/data/shapes/tanks/AreaExplosion.jpg
                                        ";

                                        

 

Startscale = how big the explosion is at start. Endscale = how big the explosion is at end.

 

                                        

                                        splashexplosion.startScale = 0.05;

                                        splashexplosion.endScale = 2.0;

                                        

 

 

 

I haven't visited these mods, but I'm pretty sure you're talking about emitters.
The fastest and easiest way to get smoke coming from the bullet are to use this. The smoke only works on light tank.

 

                                        

                                        lightprojectile.emitter = "rocketemitter";

I tryed puting the splash codes at the bottom of my mis file below the object wright end and all it did was have this flat image get smaller. I'm thinking it's the AreaExplosion.jpg maybe I need to put in the alpha to? How did you get it to work bloblub?

I didnt actualy getting it worked, the area explosion is flat and square and the dts file will make it that round explosion
