[3D Rad Developer - Fernando]

If you want to share any Script-based plug-in that others can use in their projects without coding, please post it here.

To maximize clarity please do not post anything else to this thread. If you want to discuss a plugin found here, please start a new topic.

Thank You in advance for your cooperation 

PLUG-IN SCRIPT REQUIREMENTS

• it must be a .3dr project with one single Script object in it and nothing else. This will allow others to easily add it to their projects by using the recently improved File->Merge menu option
• the .3dr file name should start with 'plugin_' to let users locate all plugins easily in their projects folder
• an usage description must be included to your post, specifying the plugin purpose and the order in which other objects should be linked with the plugin Script object
• the plugin should be designed with non coders in mind! It means, for example, that the user must be able to configure the script, if applicable, by simply changing clearly marked values in the script header
• by submitting your script you agree to let others use it and its script code for any purpose

This is something I made a while back and spruced up for this.
It will place a sprite on the location where the target object will be by the time the bullet gets to it.
Which means you don't have to guess how much lead to put on a target, just aim at the sprite.
