A_CyberAttack is a code pointer used in the attack animation for the cyberdemon.
Uses[edit]
The A_CyberAttack code pointer appears in the following states in Doom's state table:
| Frame number | Doom internal name | Use |
|---|---|---|
| 685 | S_CYBER_ATK2 | attack animation for the cyberdemon |
| 687 | S_CYBER_ATK4 | attack animation for the cyberdemon |
| 689 | S_CYBER_ATK6 | attack animation for the cyberdemon |
Example[edit]
The following is an example of how to set the A_CyberAttack code pointer in a DeHackEd file:
Pointer 21 (Frame 34) Codep Frame = 689
Or using BEX syntax:
[CODEPTR] Frame 1234 = CyberAttack
Code structure[edit]
A_CyberAttack's code structure is very simple. It calls A_FaceTarget and then uses the P_SpawnMissile function to fire the rocket. There are similarities with A_FireMissile although some of the code paths are different.
