Weapon Firing Two Projectiles?

[jes00]

Is it possible to make a weapon fire two projectiles at different spots at the same time? if so, how?

something along the lines of this

Code: [Select]

function SpecialGunImage::onFire(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
%projectile = GunProjectile;

%p = new (%this.projectileType)()
{
dataBlock = %projectile;
initialVelocity = %velocity;
initialPosition = %obj.getMuzzlePoint(%slot);
sourceObject = %obj;
sourceSlot = %slot;
client = %obj.client;
};
MissionCleanup.add(%p);

%projectile = OtherGunProjectile;

%p = new (%this.projectileType)()
{
dataBlock = %projectile;
initialVelocity = %velocity;
initialPosition = %obj.getMuzzlePoint(%slot);
sourceObject = %obj;
sourceSlot = %slot;
client = %obj.client;
};
MissionCleanup.add(%p);
}

The words initialPosition should mean something. ;)
If you mess with the value of that you should be able to shoot from another place.

So yeah, you should have a custom onFire script where you make 2 new projectiles.
One from the muzzlePoint, one from the other position.
You can add another vector to the vector that the muzzlePoint returns to move the point where the second one shoots from a bit.

Can you do something with that?
