• old PR Add: Fire Visuals For Aflame Units #526
• ref Delayed kill of vehicle after napalm mig attack #482

• USA vehicles
• China vehicles
• GLA vehicles
• Civilian and misc vehicles
• buildings? Buildings already handle AFLAME status via FireS/M/L hard-coded bones.

Fire effects last too long

The effect is removed immediately when the vehicle stops losing health.

[xezon]

Ah okay, when it is linked to actual damage duration, then that duration makes sense. Is quite long.

[commy2]

Done for the base factions.

We need a map with all the civ vehicles (Crush test has no player controllable flamer).

Buildings already burn when damaged and AFLAME: engine creates larger fires and less smoke at FireS/M/Lxx memory points while burning.

Base defenses lack these, so I recommend to at least add the flame to Tunnel/Stinger/Patiot/Fire Base/Bunker/Gattling/Prop Tower and Demo Trap.

[xezon]

Would it perhaps be possible to put the flames at custom positions on the chassis so that the fire does not spawn from below the vehicle? The flame underneath vehicles does not look optimal in my opinion.

[commy2]

z-Positions of the fire now editable in INI. Should look better now. Can be fine tuned for each unit.

[commy2]

SourceXX where XX is z position in feet. Range [00-20] where 00 is the floor.

[xezon]

Nice. Perhaps call the bones X00Y00Z00-X00Y00Z20 or Center00-Center20? This would communicate their position more clearly.

We need to check that carrying these extra 20 bones per each object is ok.

[commy2]

The bones only exist when AFLAME. No model otherwise.

[commy2]

Renamed to CenterZxx. It's supposed to mean the center x,y at z=...

[xezon]

The fires are too intense for my liking. I have made a pass on them.

I have used InfernoCannonFire and DragonTransitionFire as references.

Flamed aircraft appears to produce no fire

[commy2]

I haven't added it to aircraft or civilian cars yet. It may also need to be added to base defenses.
