Description

The missile mechanic is similar to the projectile mechanic and can use any of the Projectile's Inheritable Attributes.
Missiles however are homing and will track down their targets. Missiles can target both a location and an entity.

Attributes

Attribute	Aliases	Description	Default
Inertia	in, intertia	Sets the "turning-rate" of the missile. Lower values make the missile turn around faster. Use big numbers (10-100) when trying to make your missiles turn slowly.	1.5
Bounces	bounce	Should the projectile bounce. Bounce radius depends on the projectile's hitbox. Premium Only.	false
BounceVelocity	bv	Every time the projectile bounces, its velocity will be multiplied by this value. Premium Only .	0.9
HugSurface	hs	Whether or not the projectile should move along the ground.	false
HugLiquid	hugwater, huglava	when using hugSurface will also move on top of liquids	false
HeightFromSurface	hfs	For NORMAL projectiles, how high above the surface the projectile should glide if HugSurface is set to TRUE. For METEOR projectiles, how high above the surface the projectile starts above the target.	0.5
MaxClimbHeight	mch	The number of attempts the projectile will make to increase its y-location before terminating itself, when the projectiles is "hugging" either a block or a liquid	3
MaxDropHeight	mdh	The number of attempts the projectile will make to decrease its y-location before terminating itself, when the projectiles is "hugging" either a block or a liquid	10
highAccuracyMode	ham	Whether to use high-accuracy mode, which raytraces every tick to ensure the projectile cannot ever go through anything. Values can be `true`, `false`, `PLAYERS_ONLY`	PLAYERS_ONLY
hitnonplayers	hnp	Whether the missile should hit non player entities	true

This mechanic inherits every inheritable attribute of the Projectile mechanic

The hitnonplayers attribute is defaulted at true

Examples

This example shoots a missile that looks like a thin trail of flames with a high turning rate. It bursts into a powerful explosion upon hitting its target.
