Options

You can set a number of options for your sentry gun. Here is a list of the available options and what they do.

Change Colours

You may wish to change the colour of your sentry gun. This can be handy in team combat to distinguish which sentry belongs to which team. To do this is simple. Left-click on the sentry gun and choose COLOR from the options menu. You will see that a small colour cube plops out onto the floor. Edit this box using your Edit Window and navigate to the Texture tab. From here you can choose any colour on the client colour picker for your gun. To choose a colour for the particle stream left by bullets, simply left-click the colour cube to switch it into particle mode. Right click and delete cube when done.

Destructible

Sentry gun now allows you to shoot at it and reduce it in health until it is damaged and needs repairs. To repair it you need to be in the same active group as the sentry. Left click it to fix it. You can reduce the time taken to fix the sentry by repairing it with the Spanner from AVpack.

Damage

When using the Sentry gun on damage enabled sims (not push enabled), you may wish to have it send an enemy back home after detecting him/her. To do this, please ensure that you choose a damage level from the DAMAGE sub-menu. Ensure that you turn Push off and have Rockets enabled. Rockets are the ONLY things that cause health to drop. Push does not take damage settings into account when pushing. This also applies to Eject and Send Home settings for obvious reasons.

EMP Damage

If the Sentry is set to be destructible, you can destroy a sentry far quicker by using an EMP (Electromagnetic pulse) round from AVpack weapons. This would include Electro-shock or the Orb rounds from the Spanner or RPG. In order for an EMP to effect damage to the sentry, you need to ensure that the sentry is set to another group other than the objects you are firing at it.
