Is there a way to make missiles lock on targets through walls?

For example, if a target says "obstructed" is there a way to still lock onto it, i know this might seem like a ridiculous question but i need a way.

    @ZemiGG but you cannot lock if taget obstructed

    idk how to do that
    but, if you want a workaround, maybe
    you can make a small rocket and attach the missile to it
    make the rocket invisible or detachable as booster?
    launch the rocket by Ag1 and use camera with missile locking attached to it to lock and shoot the real missile to the target after locking mid air

    because the second one, i think it only work for 1 launch only
    because to calculate TargetSelected needs main cockpit attached to it, but it'll work as expected

    or
    on your build, just place a really really high camera ( put camera and move it by typing how many meters up needed in the Y part) so you can use the camera to lock and shoot without needing multiple cameras

    needed too high if the angle of the target and the thing obstructed it is also high
    then you can make the slow turn missile

    i think the rocket chasing TargetSelected will work as intended
    if you want i may want to try experimenting on that too

    @griges For my build, yes i was originally planning to make the missile launch upwards (it's supposed to be a ground-to-ground missile) and make the turning speed of the missile very slow (so that it doesnt curve towards the hill) but still be able to hit the ground target

    not a locking missile,
    but A Locking Missile
    can either make something launch upward untill unobstructed,attach a camera and missile locking enabled

    OR

    make some complicated FT missile craft chasing TargetSelected as
    like this

    My limited FT knowledge would tell me that this wouldn't be possible, but I haven't had much time to do digging into the limitations so maybe.
