Explosion with Projectile Not Working without collision (TLC) off

[Searcherz64]

I'm trying to get a simple explosion with projectile working:

 

Explosion Property LibertyPrimeLaserExplosionW40k Auto Const

STATIC Property SPCMarkerOrbital Auto Const

Event OnEffectStart(Actor target, Actor caster)

Debug.Notification("spawn")

ObjectReference marker = caster.PlaceAtMe(SPCMarkerOrbital)

marker.MoveTo(caster, 0, 1000, 500)

marker.PlaceAtMe(LibertyPrimeLaserExplosionW40k)

EndEvent

 

 

But it doesn't seem to be working - the projectile looks like it hits something right next to it:

 

When I toggle collision off however (TLC in console), it works:

 

 

And then the instant I turn it back on:

 

 

 

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Problem like this seems to occur when you use PlaceAtMe or Weapon.Fire to place Projectile or Explosion.

In my case, roundabout route like below works.

Weapon.Fire( marker ) -> Projectile_Parent (explode with alt. trigger 0.0s) -> Explosion (spawn projectiles) -> Projectile_Child

Sorry, am a bit confused by a few things with this, the first part being Weapon.Fire. I initially thought of using Weapon.Fire but not sure how I would get a Weapon type since trying to use PlaceAtMe(WeaponForm) only gives back an ObjectReference and not a Weapon

[akiras404]

ObjectReference marker = PlaceAtMe(XMarker)

WeaponForm.Fire( marker )

will fire weapon from marker.

Ah I misread the Weapon Script documentation - it works now, thank you!
