Super Weapon Designators

Registered by AlexB on 2014-09-14

Add the requirement to have a designator unit near the location you want to fire a super weapon at. If no designator is in range, the NoCursor is shown.

[SuperWeapon]SW.Designators= (list of TechnoTypes): List of units eligible for designating the target location. Leave empty to not require designators.

[SuperWeapon]SW.AnyDesignator= (boolean, defaults to no)
Whether any unit is considered a valid Designator for this super weapon. Overrides SW.Designators.

[TechnoType]DesignatorRange= (integer): Range in cells around the unit that becomes targetable by super weapons requiring this unit as designator. Defaults to [TechnoType]Sight.

The AI will not respect this at the moment.

14.257.320, didn't encounter any issues with this, and the cursor always changes between "allowed" and "can't fire" state accordingly, even if the designator is moving while the cursor is not. - mevitar
