I've searched just about every site I know, and I can't find it. How do you make a player-controllable Tank Mortar give a frag to the player using it when they score a kill?

Please help.

Thanks!

I've seen it in some maps, where the kill is scored to the user. Are those maps made using Spirit or something?

I do not think func_tankmortar will give players frags, however func_tanks will. To see this in action play both crossfire and stalkyard. The cannons in crossfire won't give points while the guns in stalkyard will. So basically if you want players to get frags with placed guns you have to make them func_tanks.

Thanks, Yak_Fighter. BTW, this is a Tank Mortar modified from your excellent Machine Gun (which I also used in ff_bunkers). Thanks for the gun, chief!

I don't think func_tanks or machineguns or any of those give kills...

Well one of them does, as they are used in a couple of valve's DM maps.
