Description
I love artillery... and archers... and musket units. Whenever I play a strategy/army game I always go for ranged units. I remember on Age of Empires 2, anyone ever play that game? I'd stockpile a ton of resources, kill all my villagers to free up my population cap, then make 4-50 men teams of fully upgraded Briton Longbowman. There's something to be said about all of them firing at once and seeing a square of densely packed arrows fly towards your opponent....Nostalgia aside, I made this cannon because I love artillery units as well, enjoy

very fun. but i have noticed a few times the shots go straight through the airships, not often just a few.

yup, the boat and balloon have separate hit areas(I made it like that), so it's possible to shoot between them.

This is so cool! But how did you code for the shells?

Please don't ask for an explanation, it'd take too long to explain.
function make_bullets()
{
var cannonball:MovieClip = new ball_mc();
cannonball.x = BarrelTipX;
cannonball.y = BarrelTipY;
addChildAt(cannonball, 0);
var bulletSpeed:int = speed;
var randomNum:int = Math.floor(Math.random() * accuracy + - (accuracy / 2));
var bulletAngle:Number;
var playerX:Number;
var playerY:Number;
var rotationDirection:Number;
cannonball.rotation = cannon.rotation;
bulletAngle = ((cannon.rotation+randomNum-180)*Math.PI/180);
var xSpeed:Number = Math.cos(bulletAngle) * bulletSpeed;
var ySpeed:Number = Math.sin(bulletAngle) * bulletSpeed;
var blimp_health:int = Math.floor(Math.random() *3 + 3);
cannonball.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler_2);
function fl_EnterFrameHandler_2(e:Event):void
{
var already_hit
e.target.x += xSpeed;
e.target.y += ySpeed;
if (e.target.y < 0)
{
e.target.y = 0;
e.target.play();
e.target.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler_2);
}
if (e.target.x < 0)
{
e.target.x = 0;
e.target.play();
e.target.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_EnterFrameHandler_2);
}
if(blimp_hit.hitTestPoint(e.target.x, e.target.y, true) && !already_hit){
blimp.health_bar.scaleX -= (blimp_health/10);
