Artillery Projectile Speed

[Kabury]

Normal projectiles have a host of properties relating to the speed at which they travel:

Artillery projectiles lack any speed property.

Could we get mirrors of the speed parameters for the Artillery Projectile? or a constant speed at least?

(Unsure if the flare holds the speed instead https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/pro ... otype.html)

artillery-wagon-cannon is a regular weapon which shoots artillery-shell ammo, have you tried modifying the attack_parameters?

ArtilleryProjectile is the thing visible on the Map and which reveals the Fog-of War.

Good Luck!

Artillery projectiles speed is currently set based off the trigger that creates it: https://lua-api.factorio.com/latest/typ ... ivery.html

Rhanks both!
