Car/tank properties of gun

Hi!

By turrets we can use flame position with this code:

Code: Select all

prot.attack_parameters =
  {
    projectile_creation_distance = 3.4, 
    projectile_center = {0,0}
  }
Can you please add position of weapon's flame by vehicles?

If the same gun is used by two vehicles, why they must have the same high?

You can define another gun, that is identical, with the only change being the attack parameters

Is the mod with adding new prototypes still be mod with "Non-Game-Changing" attribute? This attribute, as I know, doesn't need mod synchronization.

Any mod which adds or amends any prototypes will need mod synchonization,
This includes adding or changing graphic definitions

Could you explain how a new weaponized vehicle should be a "non game changer" ?

I suspect he's only trying to reskin. That's still a game changer because reskins can significantly affect visibility particularly of entities that are supposed to be hard to see.
