I'm trying to figure out how to take weapon projectile models (eg. the Thor or banshee missiles or even a nuke) and use those to create a unit like a cruise missile or a freely flying nuke. Does anyone have some insight on how this may be done?
I finally figured this out. Apparently, you cannot just take the model from the Effects section and use it for a unit, because many of these models are not selectable as units because they are so small or something. There is a work around that SonOfAZerg suggested to use a second actor with a selectable unit model. There is probably a way to edit the Effect model to make it work, but I haven't tried that yet. The rest is straightforward.
