Defined in the CombatDamage section, this specifies the maximum distance in cells that inaccurate arcing projectiles will scatter.
Red Alert
A projectile is inaccurate if it has Inaccurate=yes set, or it has been fired by a unit on the move. A projectile is also inaccurate if it is targeting a cell or infantry with either the warhead AP or a warhead with Ranged=yes.
If Arcing=yes, the projectile's facing will be altered slightly and the target is scattered up to HomingScatter cells in a random direction.
Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2
Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 both read HomingScatter, but the value is not used.
