Info:
Tactical missile launcher shows how many missiles are left and focussed target:
"Com" = Commander
"Exp" = Experimental. Attack order: highes maxunithealth. (not actual healthbar!)
"Hea" = Heavy Assault. (small experimentals from Total Mayhem, Experimental Wars etc.)
"Art" = Mobile T3 Unit with indirect Fire and only if the unit don't move. (Artillery / Missilelauncher)
"Bui" = T1,T2,T3 Structures. Attack order: nearest completed building.
"Eng" = Engineer (fire only on not moving units)
"Mob" = Mobile (fire only on not moving units)
The missile launcher always will hold back one missile for the player.
If the launcher has more then 1 missile, it will aim and fire at Commander, Experimentals and Heavy Assaults.
With almost full silo (maximal load -2) the launcher will start to fire on buildings and mobile units if they don't move.
This mod is NOT using homing missiles. Its using the normal tactical missile launcher with a "lead target" function.
(Shooting ahead of a moving target so that the target and projectile will collide.)
It will also take into account if the target is protected by an anti missile system.
(It will not shoot in this case; there is no overwhelm function because each launcher has its separate AI)
