Special Case Weapons

Beam Cannons

• REQUIRES: "beam" flag
• REQUIRES: $BeamInfo:

Flak Guns

• REQUIRE: "flak" and "particle spew" flags
• Must have inner and outer radius defined to have any effect.
• Does not use any model or weapon effect though model must be defined, usually Hornet.pof. Instead it uses particle spew. Trails can also be added.

Weapons Table

• Retail options will look like this

• SCP options are marked with red color
  • Most of the entries in ships.tbl are optional (does anyone have the default values?)

General Format

• The weapons table consist of several sections
• All sections beginning with # need #End before the next section.
  • #Primary Weapons
    • Defines all standard primaries weapons as well as beam cannons and flak cannons.
  • #Secondary Weapons
    • Defines all secondary weapons.
  • #Beam Weapons
    • I haven't got any ideas for this one.
  • #Countermeasures
    • Defines the used countermeasure.
  • $Player Weapon Precedence
    • Player Weapon Precedence is used in weapon selection when a default specified by the mission designer is not available to the player. The next weapon on the list is used in its place (assuming that weapon is allowed for the player).
