Hi everyone, I've been playing around a lot with the gunspecs and projectiles lately. Came across a bit of a roadblock today. I'm unable to assign any weapon a projectile by adding:

projectile = [projectile]

And it works for any existing projectiles quite wonderfully. However when I attempt to create my own projectile, by duplicating an existing .TXT file in the "projectiletypes" folder and renaming the TEXT file to a custom name, It does not seem to work. Even if referenced in the gunspec.txt file.

Does anyone know why this may be? I know this isn't directly in anyway a LUA question.

You can't create new projectiles at the moment, you can only modify existing projectiles. It's frustrating, because there doesn't seem to be any rational reason for this.

This is true at the moment. Projectiles are hard copied to one only. : (
