Classes:RevenantTracer

Note: Wait! Stop! You do not need to copy this actor's code into your project! Here's why: This actor is already defined in GZDoom, there's no reason to define it again. In fact, trying to define an actor with the same name will cause an error (because it already exists). If you want to make your own version of this actor, use inheritance. Definitions for existing actors are put on the wiki for reference purpose only.

Revenant homing missile
Actor type	Explosive	Game	(Doom2)
DoomEd Number	None	Class Name	RevenantTracer
Spawn ID	53	Identifier	T_TRACER

Classes: RevenantTracer

The seeking missile fired by a Revenant. Whether it actually homes in on the Revenant's target or not is random (it's about 50% chance, but check A_Tracer for exact numbers), this behavior is caused by the way A_Tracer was written.

From their sprite names, it could be inferred they were originally planned to be the Mancubus' missiles.

Warning: This is legacy code, kept for archival purposes only. DECORATE is deprecated in GZDoom and is completely superseded by ZScript. GZDoom internally uses the ZScript definition above.
