What ini file controls rocket firing sequence?

[Heck 496]

In the Korean War mod, the F9F-5 Panther fires its rockets in this sequence: left wing, right wing, left wing, right wing. The F-80-c fires all the left wing rockets first, then all the right wing, setting up heavy asymetrical loads as they're fired, unlike the Panther. I've modified both the loadout.ini, and the data.ini of the F-80 to mimick that of the F9f, ie: left wing station1, right wing station1, etc., rather than left wing station 1, left wing station 2, etc., but the F-80 still stubbornly fires all left wing first, then all right wing. Is there something I'm missing? I want the rockets on the F-80 to fire in left wing, then right wing sequence like the F9f, as well as the rockets I've added to my F-84g, but nothing I've done seems to work. I can't see anything in the ini files that would control this, except the sequence in which they're listed, which I've already changed. Can anyone help?

You can control them via the data ini file, look for the weapons section.

 

You can change them via the StationGroupID or by the StationID.

 

In this case all of the rockets are declared to be a single StationGroupID, but all of the Left wing rockets are declared sequentially with a StationID first.

 

So when you select the rockets, StationID=7 will fire first, StationID=8 will fire next and so forth.

 

To fix it interleave the StationID's between the left and right wings. So for example StationID=7 is a station in the left wing, StationID=8 is a station in the right wing and so forth.

Thanks, Capun. Reading your reply, I figured out what I did wrong. Doh moment. Now, to modify that ini...
