Declare weapons in the rules
A [Weapons] list in a rules file, such as rules.ini or firestrm.ini, now registers each weapon it names, and every listed weapon reads its section even when no other key names it. Before, a weapon that only the engine or a projectile’s AirburstWeapon= names read its section only if an object type also named it as a weapon. Without such an object type, the Mobile EM-Pulse vehicle’s pulse (MobileEMPulseWeapon) fired nothing, and the Multi-Missile crashed the game when its MultiCluster burst.
The Do Explosion At trigger action picks its weapon by number. Weapons in the rules.ini [Weapons] list now take the first numbers, in list order, ahead of any weapon the list leaves out. Before, every weapon was numbered in the order other keys first named it. When a rules file has a [Weapons] list, a map written for the old numbering can detonate a different weapon.
