Post by Darkside Heartless »

could a weapon spawn a generic object?
If so, how?

Yeah, it can be done. Under flags in the weapon's gam page, check Spawns Robot. Then close the flags branch, and look for the 'Robot Spawn:' Field. I've never tested it for spawing anything other than a robot, but i'd say its a safe bet it will work for any Object.

And on a side note, in case you haven't heard, you don't have to name a weapon's gam page after one of the original game's weapons. I had tested it successfully which verified Gameedit's theory. You can name it anything you want, nd just set that name under the ship/robot's weapons slots area. Gunpoint Weapons/ Weapon index it an obsolete field, and is not necessary. It saves time and makes things easier.
