Changing attack powers?

How do I change the attack power of a weapon?

Sorry, but the other guy was wrong. It's not a cog question, since the damage is set in the template of the projectile. Read your previous thread...

Hmm. ParseArg? But that's buggy as hell...

Only if your using variables, doesn't like 'em, or you do it wrong. Otherwise it turns out just fine.

There is another way besides ParseArg - FireProjectile(). For example:

Code: 
FireProjectile(parent, tpl, snd, mode, offsetVec, errorVec, damage_multiplier, 0x2, AA_FOVX, AA_FOVZ);


Now, ParseArg() is buggy only when used with properties that can't be directly changed - like model3d. With properties like the puppet, ParseArg() is quite stable. And Pilot, how would you use variables? ParseArg() only accepts a string argument.
