Three whole numbers, X,Y,Z. A BarrelAnimIsVoxel=yes building places its barrel with four moves in order: out from the building by VoxelBarrelOffsetToBuildingPivotPoint, a turn to the building’s facing, out by this offset, an elevation to the barrel’s pitch, and out by VoxelBarrelOffsetToPitchPivotPoint, with the model itself hanging off the end of that.
This one is applied once the assembly has been turned but before it is elevated, so it swings with the gun and holds still as the barrel rises. X runs forward along the direction the turret faces, Y out to the turret’s left and Z upward — the frame PrimaryFireFLH is measured in, and the same place in the sequence that offset occupies for an object with no voxel barrel.
[MYARTILLERY] ; a BuildingType registered in [BuildingTypes]BarrelAnimIsVoxel=yesVoxelBarrelOffsetToBuildingPivotPoint=4,2,3VoxelBarrelOffsetToRotatePivotPoint=2,0,0 ; two units forward of the mountVoxelBarrelOffsetToPitchPivotPoint=15,0,-8VoxelBarrelOffsetToBarrelEnd=350,75,0The three pivot offsets are read at two scales. Drawing takes them as model units, of which there are 32 to a cell, while the firing point takes the same numbers as leptons, of which there are 256 — so this offset moves the drawn barrel eight times as far as it moves the shot.
