A model i made for fun in like 10 mins.

-Tested, works fine in-game
-Uses in-game textures

Inspired from: BTNPaperPlane by Narandza

Model Previews:

I also made a test map for testing the model in-game: paper plane test

I might add flying animations at some point.

UPDATE 1:
-Added Death Animation, special thanks to Kitabatake

UPDATE 2:
-Added Ribbon Emitter (special effect when unit is moving)
-Added Colission Shape (now you can select it by clicking on it in WE)

special thanks to Kitabatake again!

I would like to use this model as a missile model, but it actually behaves buggy.

Whenever a unit gets attacked by a paper plane missile, it looks like some more paper planes are spawned around the target point, showing their death animation and sometimes floating around (its weird).

This happens with a ~2 second delay to the first attack.

You can easily see it in your own hosted test map:
Just start it and look at the back of the Dummy Tank's head closely, 2 seconds after he got attacked. You will see a paper plane spawning there (which is not the missile) and its death animation.

If you don't see it, just add the following to your test map trigger:
  • visi
    • Ereignisse
      • Map initialization
    • Bedingungen
    • Aktionen
      • Sichtbarkeit - Disable fog of war
      • Sichtbarkeit - Disable black mask
      • Auswahl - Select Paper Plane Move Test 0001 <gen> for Player 1 (Red)
      • Einheit - Order Paper Plane Missile Test 0002 <gen> to Attack Dummy Tank 0003 <gen>
      • Einheit - Order Dummy Tank 0003 <gen> to Patrol to ((Position of Dummy Tank 0003 <gen>) offset by (0.00, 500.00))
While the attacked unit is moving, the bug becomes quite obvious.

I like your model, so I would be glad if you would fix it ;)

Furthermore, I suggest to paint the model somewhat brighter, because paper planes have to be colored very close to white in my opinion. But that's a matter of taste :)
