Scripting Root

Enumerator: Weapon Added with: 1.2.0
Description: The Weapon enumerator contains tables used to identify the capabilities and types of a particular weapon. Additionally the Weapon.flag table is large table that defines every category of weapon.

Weapon.flag information is available in its own article.

Uses: The Weapon.flag enumerators are commonly used to define the weapons the AI are allowed to use for a given task. Alternatively information like category or guidance type can be used as generalized criteria for assorted scripts. For example instead of making a table of every single laser guided missile you can simply check its guidance type.
Format: Tables are formatted as.

Weapon.Category = {
  SHELL,
  MISSILE,
  ROCKET,
  BOMB,
  TORPEDO
}
