To make a heat-seeking missile that only shoots from behind (like a old sidewinder variant) Paste this code In the Activation Group in the XML editor (make sure to copy the second line too):
.
(abs((rate(Longitude+(TargetDistance*sin(TargetHeading)))>0?atan(rate(Latitude+((TargetDistance*cos(TargetElevation))*cos(TargetHeading)))/rate(Longitude+((TargetDistance*cos(TargetElevation))*sin(TargetHeading))))-90:atan(rate(Latitude+((TargetDistance*cos(TargetElevation))*cos(TargetHeading)))/rate(Longitude+((TargetDistance*cos(TargetElevation))*sin(TargetHeading))))+90)/-1)-(Heading))<110
.
.
decrease the 110 at the end to make the effect stronger
I recommend you use a inferno missile, as it is fire and forget

I based this off of a Target Heading code from here:

and the rest is random jank I threw together

You can make this work on the guardian if you change the lock angle from 20 to 360
@FartResidue
Nice
@CrestelAeronautics I fixed the code block so it can be copy-pasted
@FartResidue
Ah
@CrestelAeronautics delete to part at the end that says &1t; and replace it with <
@FartResidue
It’s disabling the missile
@CrestelAeronautics does it let you fire the missile from the front, or is it disabling the missile?
It won’t work
