The only 2 problems i am having are:
Getting the Tank Shell to fire above the tank...(Currently fires underneath the tank)

Code: [Select]

{

%projectile = TANKSHELLProjectile;
%p = new Projectile()
{
dataBlock = %projectile;
initialVelocity = "0 0 0"; //shell direction and speed
initialPosition = %obj.getPosition(); //shell launch position
sourceObject = %obj.TankerOwner.player;
sourceSlot = %slot;
client = %obj.TankerOwner;
};
AND
putting this(to dismount):

Code: [Select]

if(isObject(%obj.getControllingClient()))
%obj.getControllingClient().setControlObject(%obj.getControllingClient().player);
%obj.schedule(10, delete);binded to a:

Code: [Select]

Don't be handicapped
You obviously aren't being clear if two separate people have to ask what the problem is. A block of code is not a problem, explain what is broken with actual goddamn words.

Change the velocity numbers to what you need.

initialPosition = %obj.getPosition(); //shell launch position
sourceObject = %obj.TankerOwner.player;

Um, this looks like you are firing from the player that controls the tank.

Also there could be a line somewhere that when you dismount, the projectile automatically explodes.  You need to get rid of this so you don't fire an automatically exploding shell in your face.

Also you will need to make sure that the shell matches with the size of your tank.  Using the tank shell from a tank half the normal one's size would be ridiculous.

I have done that

initialPosition = %obj.getPosition(); //shell launch position
sourceObject = %obj.TankerOwner.player;

Nope, but if you add anything or change the position value, it goes to the map 0,0,0

There is-

You didnt answer my question about making the cannon fire from above the tank
