    Hey,

    im working myself through the Modding tutorial of Exaviar Macbeth. I Plan to put an other cannon on one of the Bots. He Mentions the Blankprojectiles.Lua/Blankweapons.Lua files which he created. Unfortunaly i can not find them anywhere...Does anyone have these or has an idea how to modificate the weapons on another way?

    Of course i could simply change the Weapon Projectiles Path in the Units Blueprint, but when i want to attach another weapon? Simply Changing the Units script didnt seem to work for me...

    Heres a screenshot out of the tutorial, the green part shouldve been replaced by the Path of the Blank...Lua Files...

          Looking it over - it appears he makes the files himself right below the section that you quoted. This is not a guide I was familiar with - if you can't find the solution then it is best to ask in the discord and ping the veteran modders

            [...]point to our custom projectiles file which would be located at:
            
            /mods/<modname>/lua/blankprojectiles.lua
            

            It would be located it there in case you create the file !

            Crate a textfile inside your mod folder:

            /mods/<modname>/lua/textfile.txt
            

            then rename the textfile to blankprojectiles.lua

            Now you have your empty projectile in
            /mods/<modname>/lua/blankprojectiles.lua
