I have been messing about trying to add arrow generators to chariots and elephants, but have not managed to get it to work. Has anyone else played about with this? I had a few crazy ideas that would work if this can be done.
I can't use siege equipment for this, since I don't want a load of people pusjing them when they move...and you CAN'T eliminate all the crew, or bad things happen.....
One suggestion (2 cents :laugh4: ): why not making the crew transparent (alpha channel)? In that way the invisible archer will fire arrows, as they were "generated" from nowhere.Quote:

When you put crew on an elephant, the archers fire in all different directions. There is no way to control which way they aim. I have already tried this. You can put concentrated fire on the back of an elephant.... but you get a 360 arc of fire. I want all the fire controlled to point only forwards. The thing has to turn to bring it's weapons to bear.
This is why I have been trying to put arrow generators on things. I can't get this to work..... so I can't 'put a box on an elephant' .... that is EXACTLY what I am trying to do!
I don't think that's possible. AFAIK only buildings and siege towers have arrow generators.
