This page describes a function made for one of the natively supported games. These functions are made with very specific purpose and provide no flexibility, so using them in custom projects is not recommended. Authors are encouraged to use one of the more generalized functions in custom projects. For example: A_CustomBulletAttack.

Usage
The attack of Doom's zombieman. This shoots one bullet and plays the sound “grunt/attack”.
It is the equivalent to calling A_CustomBulletAttack with the parameters (22.5, 0, 1, random(1,5)*3, "BulletPuff", 0, CBAF_NORANDOM).
ZScript definition

void A_PosAttack()
{
if (target)
{
A_FaceTarget();
double ang = angle;
double slope = AimLineAttack(ang, MISSILERANGE);
A_StartSound("grunt/attack", CHAN_WEAPON);
ang += Random2[PosAttack]() * (22.5/256);
int damage = Random[PosAttack](1, 5) * 3;
LineAttack(ang, MISSILERANGE, slope, damage, "Hitscan", "Bulletpuff");
}
}
Examples
This example is taken straight from Doom's Zombieman.
Missile: POSS E 10 A_FaceTarget; POSS F 8 A_PosAttack; POSS E 8; goto See;
This example uses a generic function to exactly replicate it instead.
Missile: POSS E 10 A_FaceTarget; POSS E 0 A_StartSound ("grunt/attack", CHAN_WEAPON); POSS F 8 A_CustomBulletAttack (22.5, 0, 1, random(1,5) * 3, flags: CBAF_NORANDOM); POSS E 8; goto See;
