Name of the M2A2 Rocket...

[Knut Erik]

Okay. I need some major help here..
I want the camera to follow the M2A2 TOW rocket.

_Rocket = NearestObject [Tank3," "]

I need to know what the name of the M2A2 rocket is in order to make the camera follow it.

Does anyone have a clue??  :-\

Well, the only one here under this weapons and ammo list is this

HellfireLauncherM2A2

So I guess that's it.

[Knut Erik]

No. I've allready tried it  :-\

_Rocket = NearestObject [Tank3,"HellFireLauncherM2A2"]

Thanks for taking your time to help me though  :thumbsup:

The name of the "rocket" is "AT3".

Hint: add a "fired" event handler to any vehicle for wich you wish to find out the ammo names of. Try this one in a Bradley's init field:

Code: [Select]

this addEventHandler ["fired", { hint format ["You fired a shot of %1",_this select 4] }]
Then, jump in and fire away  ;D

Strange.... Why isn't this working???

Tank3 fire "HellfireLauncherM2A2"
_Rocket = NearestObject [Tank3,"AT3"]
_camera camSetTarget _Rocket
_camera camSetRelPos [0,10,1]
_camera camSetFOV 0.700
_camera camCommit 0


It should work, right?

Guys, guys..

I've got it to work!! You'll only have to add a tiny delay.

Tank3 fire "HellfireLauncherM2A2"
~0.01
_Rocket = NearestObject [Tank3,"AT3"]
_camera camSetTarget _Rocket
_camera camSetRelPos [0,10,1]
_camera camSetFOV 0.700
_camera camCommit 0


Now it works like a charm.
Thanks a lot for that tip Killswitch.
VERY usefull indeed
