Clay Pidgeons

Wouldent that be awesome if someone made a clay pidgeon mod somehow. Projectile is shot into air somehow and it explodes or disppears when its hit. I think this would be the coolest mod. Anyone think its somehow possible?

In CE, definitely. Not in PC, without some work tho.

on PC, the only way i can think of doin this is

1) Making a vehicle's gun, eg. Warthog turret, stand alone.
2) Adding an Ai into the turret,
3) Adding another biped, and modeling it to a pigeon
4) Changing the projectile to the biped, and give it alot of speed...

You can't give a biped speed. It's not the same, I'm pretty sure.

In CE, you'd have to just make a projectile that immediately explodes and on the explosion sends out a pidgeon (which would be a biped). As far as I know, projectiles can't hit other projectiles. I'm not sure though. If they can, this is really easy to do, even for PC. All you'd do there is change the model to a pidgeon, change the explosion to a small tiny one, set the lifespan to 0, and make the collision model bigger (look at the tut on making logs, it should help). Or swap the collision model with something that small. Maybe the health pack is too big, the pistol might work. I'm not sure how big pidgeons are. If there's one that's the right size, (shapes shouldn't matter) use it instead.

i'm pritty sure if u set anything as a projectile, you can give it the options of a projectile. i may be wrong though :/

You can give a projectile a collision, a model, and some speed.
That way you can make a clay pidgeon model, with the Health of something weak, and you shot it and it explodes ^^

yeah, but you can't give it health...... just make a gun in CE that the proj explodes instantly, has a muzzel-blast vis effect, no damage, and chain-spawns a pigeon on the same vector as the projectile.

What I think he's tring to say is he's doing to for PC. NOT CE! If he did it would probobly be in the CE section.
