create a guided fire for ut2k3

[beer me]

i basically want to make a guided fire that work liek the redemeer when you fire it the camera doesn't go to the warhead view. I want to be able to control the projectle like you can control the redeemer alt fire for the first person perspective....

any ideas guys....Or if you could point to a tutorial that would be great to..

I can't think of a tutorial offhand, but I would certainly look at the source code for the redeemer. That should give you the basics on how to control the flight of your new weapon. Just don't include the code that changes the view.

The UT2003 redemeer always changes view, because it sets your current Controller.Pawn....

Yes that's a little stupid actually because you can see your bot teammates trying to follow you through the level LoL.

Anyway you have to think to what you want to do.If you want to see from your pawn and still control the redeemer you could set the viewtarget to your pawn and bBehind view,but in any case it will be difficult to keep control at the same time of the missile and of your point of view.It will be even worse if you want to keep some mobility for your player pawn.

ChaosUT has a guided rocket mode where your rockets home in on a "laser pointer" whould that be of any use to you?
