    I would like to see missiles fly straight out from output block in the direction this block is facing and after like 1 or 2 seconds they would start flying towards their target so launching them would look more... epic? So it would look somewhat like in this video:
    Sorry for any misspelings :)

    "Roboteching", as TvTropes calls it, is definitely one of the coolest things missiles can do in science fiction, and it really helps with flexible missile launch design. I'd really love to see it for everything but the dumbfire missiles.

    Personally I want vertical launch missiles, like fired from a tube. The missiles would launch straight up from the ship than arc and track the target.

    +1 ... Missiles need initial velocity direction vector set by the output block orientation (or normal angle i think it's called, in 3D model terms)
