[EXTENSION] Sidewinder
 

Lets sentries fire rockets that actively chase the target and find a new one if the old target is no longer visible. Sentries can now also fire critical rockets.

Cvars:

sm_sentryrocket_speedmul : 1.0
sm_sentryrocket_crit : 1

Source Code
Binary Packages

Currently only built against the latest 1.2, so most likely won't work on 1.1 installations. Once 1.2 releases (soon!), I'll add builds against 1.2 and the new trunk (1.3).

<Requesting video and/or awesome pictures to insert here>

Uses CEntity framework.

lol was fun testing these (what was it, 50 times? learn to code better nub) and look forward to being hunted down by SG crit rockets on the slim chance I actually play TF2 :P

Guess ill make that video tommorow for your post. I was hoping the "OTHER" stuff was going to work before I made it, but I know its a nightmare ;)

Yeah that's voogru's version. I'm sticking to my story that I hadn't seen those videos until i was halfway through making this.

Re: [EXTENSION] Sidewinder
 

ahah, very good, very, very funny =D

the unique problem is the pyro blast...

Re: [EXTENSION] Sidewinder
 

Could this be used to fix the problem where sentrys follow people after they are out of the sentry's reach by shooting the wall and stuff?
