SubjectToCliffs= determines if the projectile is blocked by the cliffs on the map.
[[Category:General_Editing_Information]]
 
SubjectToElevation= determines if the projectile is blocked by variation in terrain height on the map (i.e. hills).
 
SubjectToWalls= determines if the projectile is blocked by walls
 
Arcing= defines if the projectile travels in a ballistic angle rather than in a straight line. This makes it inaccurate, the degree of which is set by BallisticScatter= in [CombatDamage]
 
AA= can this projectile be fired at air targets? (defaults to no)
 
AG= can this projectile be fired at ground targets? (defaults to yes)

As a Flag

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

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

In [Maximums]

Tiberian Dawn The Covert Operations Red Alert Counterstrike Aftermath Tiberian Sun Firestorm HyperPatch Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge Ares Generals Zero Hour Tiberium Wars Kane's Wrath
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.
