...really?
That function worked for someone else the other day... I'll test it in a bit and see what's going wrong.

EDIT:
Just tested AT_ANGULAR and it works ok for me...

I already tried setting it to that value. It didn't work properly for me. What keeps causing the weapon to only be shot upwards anyway? Is it a bug in 1296 or is there something I typed in incorrectly? And what build are you using yourself?
Another thing, I have all of its defenses set to ignore and the Doesn't Count As Beatable Enemy Flag checked.

The weapon's default Dir is up, so by default it moves upwards. I'm using some old mac build, about 1260 or something. I'll have another look in a minute.
The defences and that flag shouldn't make any difference.

EDIT:
Yeah, it's build 1286 so there shouldn't be any differences between that build and 1296 (unless I broke something when I was re-orangising some of ZScript's internal code...).
I tried all of the different aimtypes and they work ok in 1286.

Misc11 of 6 and Misc12 of 4 is quite fun!

Okay, I set Misc 11 to 3 and the fireball is slanted directly at Link. Perfect!
Anyway, it turns out Misc 11 is the Aim Type and Misc 12 is the Shoot Delay, and it's such a coincidence.

Glad to hear it.
That's not a coincidence, I wrote it like that... I said in the post with the script.

[XMSB]

I wonder if we could use this script as a basis to make similar scripts for other enemy classes, such as the Leever Class...

[Joe123]

Oh yeah, it'd involve changing one line. Probably would be better to rename things so it doesn't look like we're turning a leever into a keese though as well.

Which enemies would you like it to work for?
