Projectile

As a Flag

On Weapons

Flag:	Projectile
File(s):	rules(md).ini
Values:	Strings: Normal text. (Limited to: Projectiles)
Applicable to:	Weapons

In all Rules(md).ini based C&Cs, Projectile= determines which Projectile ^↓ a weapon should use.

In [Maximums]

Flag:	Projectile
File(s):	rules(md).ini
Values:	Unsigned integers: All non-negative whole numbers from 0 to either 32767, 2147483647 or 4294967295.
Applicable to:	Maximums

In Red Alert, it is also a valid flag of the [Maximums] section, specifying the maximum amount of projectile types that can exist at the same time.

As an Object

A projectile is the part of the weapon which, after graphically flying through a certain path, calls the Warhead that does the damage.

Note: While there is no [Projectiles] list in the rules, the game does construct one internally from the projectiles refered to by active weapons. You might find references to this list in the more technical parts of the documentation.

Applicable INI Flags

These tables show all INI flags applicable¹ to Projectile. The flags are grouped by the internal classes the flags are inherited from, and then listed in the order they are read in by the game. You can re-sort the rows by column values by clicking the arrow icons in the column headings. Each flag can be clicked to visit its page for detailed information.

Please note that this section is accurate only for Yuri's Revenge. All other C&C games use different sets of flags.

¹ ↑ "Applicable" in this context means "read from the INI files". Certain flags listed here don't have any effect ingame , but they are read and in certain cases cause a crash if not present. Again, refer to each flag's individual page for detailed information.
