- This is a modified version of Vhold's homing missile weapons.qc to make
- it a bit more...interesting.
-
- First, rockets only acquire targets that are 'infront', with infront
- defined a little more tightly than it is for the monster ai.
-
- Next, I thought I'd make the missile curve rather than abruptly change
- directions, so I made the new direction velocity add on to the old
- velocity. Looks nice, I think.
-
- Then, I figured that as long as it was only acquiring targets in front,
- it might as well be allowed to target the owner, since this should
- rarely happen but would be an interesting aspect. Also, had to modify
- Touch so it blows up on owner.
-
- Finally, I made the rocket constantly acquire new targets in flight,
- which helps to produce a bit more erratic, but interesting, behavior.
-
- Miscellany: Upped speed to 500 (catching up to your own missile just
- seemed wrong). The missile said it was targeting doors, so I prevented
- this.
