Invincible Gunners

[hcpookie 3770]

What inheritance is required to make the gunners in exposed turrets vulnerable?

My new vehicle is the same as the HMMWV_TOW vehicle, with a mounted TOW that exposes the gunner. Directly inheriting from the HMMWV_TOW class.

My gunner is exposed, but I cannot shoot him! I have tried to alter the configuration lines but all I manage to do is make him disappear with the viewgunnerinexternal setting. All other settings have no effect. Do I need to define a new turret, or change the inheritance?

Unfortunately it is likely a model problem (maybe missing proxy from firegeo).

That did the trick! The fire geo was missing the proxy... could have sworn I added that but it would seem not.

Thanks!
