Sorry guys, just a few general questions about rocket/missile coding in Generals.

1. How do base defences lock on and destroy artillery missiles (eg, tomahawks)? I'm sure they can, but it seems to take a lot of defences to kill one missile. Is there a specific way to code an insta-destroy?

2. Is it possible to code for a non-guided AA rocket/missile? I don't know if its beyond the limits of SAGE or not, but I haven't seen an example of one so far.

3. It could be just me, but some missiles seem more "resistant" to countermeasures than others (eg, Deathstrike's Gadflies in ShW). How is this coded?

Thanks!

1. add and change these on the wepon's code;

  AntiSmallMissile	  = No
  AntiBallisticMissile  = No

2. yes, in the progetile's date, set it to not follow the target.

you can adjust the big missile's health to make it weaker against missiles.

 &#59; *** ENGINEERING Parameters ***
  KindOf			= PROJECTILE
  Body			  = ActiveBody ModuleTag_02
	MaxHealth	   = 100.0
	InitialHealth   = 100.0
  End

change the health to around 30
