Missile Weapons are not hidden. *SOLVED*
« on: July 07, 2012, 06:59:59 AM »
Missile weapons are still visible even though you make their mount "HIDDEN".

Is this a bug or is this meant to be this way because of bombers?

Missile weapons on some fighters are still hidden as far as i can see.

The Broadsword wing has a Swarmer SRM launcher hidden completely from view. ???

There's a bit of code on the missiles that can either show the missile or not.  It was in the last patch notes.  Harpoon is always visible, but the swarmers, if under HIDDEN weapons mount, is not visible.

Yeah, not a bug - there are actually a few flags you can set on the weapon that governs this behavior:

RENDER_LOADED_MISSILES
RENDER_LOADED_MISSILES_UNLESS_HIDDEN

If you don't set either, it'll behave like the Swarmer does and not render missiles in any case.
