Hi all,
is possible to create a weapon with "waypoint" tag set to true with 3 waypoints max instead 9 like normal blaster bomb?

If I remember correctly, in OpenXcom it is not 9, but unlimited.
I don't know about any option to limit that.

Hi, thank you, for the the fast reply and the for the code change, i have tested it...and it seems to work well.  :)

I have a another question: it works too with alien AI or it is still not supported yet.....?

yes, it's accounted for in the AI as well.

You know, if you set it to just one waypoint, you have a reasonable simulation of a laser guided weapon now.
