Skyhammer's Airstrike

(CASIZBEAST) #1

Hello everyone,

My question is simple, can you aim skyhammers Airstrike?

I was told that you could by someone when I was streaming but couldn’t seem to do it. :neutral:

Do you know if it’s always from left to right or from right to left? Or maybe varied?

I’ll check this tonight, would be ~very good to know.

Was there any definitive answer on this?

I told you the other day how it works. please see my very informative diagram below:

If you throw straight a head of you it will be like this:

     -------- <Carpet Bomb
    
      | <You

So it makes the opposite of what you throw.

Ofcourse if your airstrike hits a box, where it lands might change but the angle it comes down in is still the same in correlation from where you look at when throwing it.

very simple paint thingy, might do something with ingame screenshots for www.dirtytricks.gg if the topic comes up more.

But the question was: is the top of that “T” going right to left or left to right (from your point of view)?

Right to left

the word you are looking for is ‘perpendicular’. Parallel would mean skyhammer would always airstrike himself : P

It would be so great if you could direct it after it has been thrown (like in ET)!
