Fire rocket command

[hakusaro]

Basically, I've been trying and trying to get a working rocket to fire just like the rocket launcher launches them, except through a command. I've tried playing with rpg_missile (the entity) but it appears to not work quite right(if you create it, it drops to the ground and explodes, or else fires off in a random direction).

I know lua, but I can't figure out what input would need to be applied to the entity to get it to follow a rocket launcher or activate.

This is the same thing that Gmod tower has, basically.

[lua]
concommand.Add("soiherduliekrpgs",function(a,b,c)
local r = ents.Create("rpg_missile")
r:SetPos(a:GetShootPos() + a:GetForward() * 72 )
r:SetAngles( a:GetAimVector():Normalize():Angle() )
r:SetOwner( a )
r:Spawn()
r:SetVelocity( r:GetForward() * 9001 )
)
[/lua]

Thanks, didn't know applying velocity would be all the thing you needed!
