Nah, I'm fine.
Reponse to each of the respective quotes in order:
First, it is not completely useless, it's not even mostly useless (
shoutout), knowing the relative direction can give you an idea of which cover is useful:
(if you just hear the shot and hide behind a building, only to take a shot in the leg from the same guy, and try to
crawl to the otherside, you're a sitting duck.
)
1. The time it takes for him to get up and move is enough for you to react, and if he's moving while standing up, you'll likely see him and which way he's going.
2. Did you look at
the link? The shockwave from the bullet's occluded sound front traveling by is picked up in a particular order by the microphones that a computer sorts out to get the direction, then it times between that sound front and the actual crack of the rifle, tables them out to get a distance, uses the same series of mics to get the sounds direction and basically draws a virtual line from the bullet to the target. As for windspeed, etc. IDK but this is ARMA so we don't have to worry about that changing bullet trajectory.
Infantry counterattack, with this you now know where the sniper is, and I planned on having a koulesvleto thingamabob light up the shooter and use the command reveal (thanx Spooner
) to 'show' the AI where the sniper is.
3. Maybe not arty, but a Mando Airstrike (
plug) could help. (plus, that won't matter if your a good shot.)
Look at my profile, I'm 17, no drinks for me (unless you got rootbeer
).
Lastly,
Modern? When I see this on the Discovery Channel on a show titled "
FutureWeapons" (under the episode "Immediate Action") my thought is that this would be a pretty modern piece of equipment.
Anyway,
I don't want my response to make
YOU mad so...
I apologise if this defense seemed harsh, I just attempt to the best of my ability to defend my projects, especially since this is my first '
serious' project.
However, your criticism is duely noted, and for all I know this could flop.
At any rate,
Thanx for the replies, as always.
Luke
EDIT: @ Spooner,
You seem knowledgeble,
whether I use cut text or hint, it always shows:
"Direction: _nudir
Relative Direction: _reldir
Range: _dist2
Elevation: _elev"
(i.e. it displays the names and not the values).
Can you help?
Thanx for the replies, as always
