I remember at least one MH map with Mantas firing rockets, but the map name doesn't come to my mind (it has a nuclear tentacle behind a door and a lava pool in the middle). Can you remember the name?

The mantas aren't altered simply for the map, they're in a monster package.

I have that package, but I can't access them like I used to... think it might be one of the Asgard packs. It's a manta with a number attached to the class.

Yes, Asgard2.manta11x is it, thanks. :gj:
custom class'RocketManta'
Copying complete code from class'Manta' like in Asgard2.u is not necessary - the following should be enough:

Code: Select all

//=============================================================================
// RocketManta.
//=============================================================================
class RocketManta expands Manta;


function PlayRangedAttack() 	{
	local vector adjust;
	adjust = vect(0,0,0.8);
	adjust.Z = Target.CollisionHeight + 100;
	Acceleration = AccelRate * Normal(Target.Location - Location + adjust);
	PlayAnim('Threatsting');
	spawn(RangedProjectile ,self,'',Location,AdjustAim(ProjectileSpeed, Location, 400, bLeadTarget, bWarnTarget));
}

defaultproperties
{
      StingDamage=44
      WhipDamage=44
      bHasRangedAttack=True
      RangedProjectile=Class'Botpack.RocketMk2'
}
