This is a quick reference guide for what all the different "***Type=" Numbers mean when editing Weapons. It's primarily for people who are used to editing ini's rather than Newbies but hopefully it'll help both.   I got some of the information from posts on here and some from playing about with the TW weapons editor but if you spot anything wrong let me know and I'll get it changed.   Ta...............................IanH       *******************Strike Fighters 2 - Editing Weapon Data*********************   What are the different types of weapons I can fit to a Pylon in SF2?   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **********This is Found in the Aircraft data.ini and it Lets the Pylon know the type of weapons it can carry********* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   AllowedWeaponClass=???   BOMB ...

GuidanceType=2 Radio Command Guided (CGR) AS-30 etc GuidanceType=3 Semi-Auto Command Guided (CGR) Can used for Large missiles (i.e Anti-Ship) to substitute Radar Guidance - CAN'T be Rack Mounted. GuidanceType=4 Laser Guided (LGB,LGR,NUC,AWD) GBU-12, Laser AGM-65 etc GuidanceType=5 TV Homing (EOGB,EOGR,NUC,AWD) Walleye, TV AGM-65 etc GuidanceType=6 Imaging Infra-red Homing (EOGB,EOGR,NUC,AWD) IIR AGM-65, GBU-15 etc GuidanceType=7 Inertial Homing (ASM) ASMP, some Anti Ship models GuidanceType=8 GPS Homing (EOGB,EOGR,NUC,AWD) JDAM, Storm Shadow etc GuidanceType=9 Anti Radiation (ARM) AGM-88, Martel, ALARM, Kh-28 etc   ***Air to Air*** GuidanceType=10 Heat Seeking (IRM) Sidewinder, Archer etc GuidanceType=11 Beam Riding (SAHM) SA-2, SA-3 etc GuidanceType=12 Semi-Active Radar Homing (SAHM) ie Aim-7 Sparrow, SA-6 GuidanceType=13 Active Radar Homing (AHM) ie AMRAAM, Adder etc   **Anti Ship Missiles** - Radar guidance for A2G Weapons isn't modelled in-game (only A2A weapons) so in the past people have used GuidanceType=7/8 to simulate it but this will only hits static targets and will miss moving ones. Please consider using GuidanceType=2/3 (CGR) as a work around instead for Large Single Pylon Missiles or GuidanceType=1 (WGR) for smaller weapons that may require Rack mounting (ATR).   The GuidanceType doesn't affect the WeaponDataType so both a LGB GBU-12 (WeaponDataType=0) and an EOGR Laser AGM-65 (WeaponDataType=1) use the same GuidanceType (GuidanceType=4 Laser).   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   ***EDIT 07 Jan '12 - Changed GuidanceType=??? section slightly to include AllowedWeaponClass acronyms and new WGR data.
