This is going to be a long...
Now heres a list of a weapon which is in the game but not in use. Now you can go ahead and change whatever stats to suit your needs.
;Units Primary Weapon
[MultiLauncher]
Damage=50
ROF=100
Range=15
Projectile=MultiLauncherMissile
Speed=35
Warhead=AP; for big boom use NukeMaker
;Projectile info
[MultiLauncherMissile]
Arm=2
High=yes
VeryHigh=yes
Proximity=yes
Cluster=4
Ranged=yes
AA=no
Image=MISLMLTI
ROT=4
Color=DarkGreen
Airburst=yes
AirburstWeapon=V3Cluster
;MultiMissile Cluster Missiles; in the game but not used
[V3Cluster]
Damage=50
ROF=50
Projectile=ClusterBits
Range=6
Speed=20
Warhead=AP; for big boom use NukeMaker
;Projectile info
[ClusterBits]
Arm=2
Shadow=no
Proximity=yes
Ranged=yes
Image=DRAGON
ROT=60
Now if you want to change the anim. just go to the warhead and add what ever you want.
If you want the clusters to fall more away from the center of the target. Increase their range and/or slow the speed they travel.
Stupidguardmode... if I remember right is for buildings with out a primary weapon. For some reason buildings like the power plant and weapons factory need to be set to true/yes. They need this because they are just plain buildings that just sit there and look pretty. But buildings like the coil and sentry gun dont need it because they have a weapon to target for them or they have another funtion like the airport or depot. It had something to do with the AI.
I while back I really did know what its funtion was for... my memory might come back.
