When you have a cannon in your build, I have noticed that if you set the cannon’s “disableAircraftCollisions” to true, not only will the cannon projectiles phase through your plane, they will phase through any a.i. enemy plane as well. Just thought I’d share this with anybody who didn’t know.
Ok @Shnippy
Go into forums press new pick a category then press new again @Thefuriouschicken
I have a question how do you make these announcements
Thanks. That seems to be the general consensus. @vcharng
Yeah when the cannon part was first introduced it is VERY easy to blow yourself up, so in the end they made it that way.
Also, it is possible to make your cannon shell impact another plane without blowing yourself up. Just turn off collision model for every OTHER part at and in front of the cannon.
It's actually easier than the original gun.
Fair enough, I honestly had no idea until I did a little testing. And thanks for the upvote @TheMachinist
@ACEPILOT109 thanks for the upvote!
@jamesPLANESii @Chancey21 thanks for the upvotes!
@Roswell that’s what I was pretty sure you were talking about.
@ArcturusAerospace that's what I'm talking about.
Thanks, that’s what I’ve started doing. @ArcturusAerospace
@Roswell @Shnippy
If you are trying to make a custom gun barrel, just make the parts of the barrel have disableAircraftCollisions set to true.
I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks! 👍Abd thanks for the upvote! @Roswell
It's best to make the cannon model have
disableAircraftCollisions
True
not the cannon part itself due to this problem.Ahh that’s fair. @ArcturusAerospace
@Shnippy
My builds are all futuristic, so I have a reason to make most of them have missiles with 360* lock angle.
Then I consider you an excellent shot! Congrats! And thanks for the upvote! @ArcturusAerospace
@Shnippy
It was literally the only time that I have shot down a plane without using missiles :)
Thank you for the upvotes! @BlackhattAircraft @asteroidbook345
Fair enough, haha. @ArcturusAerospace
That is very odd indeed. @asteroidbook345
@asteroidbook345
It's worked for me, I just got lucky with my shots.
