DeploymentPoint

v1.4.8

A siege deploy marker. It gathers the siege weapons inside Radius, or weapons tagged SiegeWeaponTag, and the deployment UI uses that set.

Find placed ones in the Scene panel with s:DeploymentPoint. See Filter.

Where you put it

Drop siege_deployment_placeholder_part_a or part_b from Native\Prefabs\props_siege.xml on the ground in front of a wall or gate. Put it on the siege level.

What you set

Panel field	What to do with it
Side	Who deploys here. Code default Attacker.
Radius	Meters. A siege weapon closer than this is included. Code default 3.
SiegeWeaponTag	Tag that also includes a weapon, on the weapon or its parent. Code default dpWeapon. The placeholder prefabs store no_deploy, so they collect by radius only.

What it does

After the mission starts, the point lists siege weapons under the tag or inside the radius. A ram makes it a ram point. A siege tower makes it a tower point and links the ladders on that tower's side. Anything else is a ranged point. If that list is empty, the point is hidden and marked as a breach. The breach path then looks for a siege tower on the same list.

Where it lives

Managed script. The placeholders are in Native\Prefabs\props_siege.xml.

Examples

Wide attacker pad. Prefab siege_deployment_placeholder_part_a. Side Attacker, Radius 7.750, SiegeWeaponTag no_deploy.

Narrow attacker pad. Prefab siege_deployment_placeholder_part_b. Side Attacker, Radius 4.160, SiegeWeaponTag no_deploy.

Defender pad on a siege map. SandBox\SceneObj\sturgia_castle_siege_001. One siege_deployment_placeholder_part_b sets Side to Defender and Radius to 4.960. The tag stays the prefab's no_deploy. It is on levels level_1 and siege.
