Introduction

CEG stands for Custom Explosion Generator, a scripting language for creating graphical effects. These are most commonly used to draw a graphical effect when a weapon hits a target, but can also be called from COB and Lua .

Files Needed

The actual CEGs are defined in .tdf or .lua files in gamedata/explosions/. You will also need a resources.tdf or .lua in gamedata/ to define textures, as well as the actual textures in bitmaps/. Finally, you need the weapon, unit, COB, and or Lua files that you are calling the CEGs from.

What Can Call a CEG?

• A weapon, through cegtag, explosiongenerator, bounceexplosiongenerator.
• A COB script, though emit-sfx 1024 + X.
• A Lua script, through Spring.SpawnCEG.
