Can be set to 'yes' or 'no'. Defaults to 'no' but if set to 'yes' this causes the target to be instantly flipped over (if its VXL based) or 'stuck' to the spot (if its SHP based). This effect was unused but originally intended for the Brute. The degree of rocking can be modified by using the DirectRockingCoefficient= tag form the  section, which will make sure that heavier vehicles flip over too rather than simply rock more.<br />

This logic is flawed because of the following:
 
If a unit fires a DirectRocker=yes weapon without Pushy=yes, it cannot attack more. Also, if the warhead fails (because it doesn't have enough damage or because the target is an SHP) then both the attacker and the victim won't fire more, regardless of Pushy. They can be selected and be moved, though.
 
DirectRocker=yes weapons can flip over VXL Jumpjet, however, this can't be seen. The Jumpjet just stand there (the time it should be flipped) then crash.

Notes

This logic is flawed because of the following:

If a unit fires a DirectRocker=yes weapon without Pushy=yes, it cannot attack more. Also, if the warhead fails (because it doesn't have enough damage or because the target is an SHP) then both the attacker and the victim won't fire more, regardless of Pushy. They can be selected and be moved, though.

DirectRocker=yes weapons can flip over VXL Jumpjet, however, this can't be seen. The Jumpjet just stand there (the time it should be flipped) then crash.
