F/A-18 Iron Bombing CAS
« on: 22 Jan 2004, 21:53:49 »
Alright, I finally have got an idea that is worth posting.  I realize there are some scripts in the Ed. Depot that pertain to bombing, so bear with me.

Alright, the script should be activated by radio (I know how to to that.)  Once it is started, it should ask the player where he needs the airstrike (via mapclick).  The F/A-18's (or I suppose any other plane) should fly and drop a bomb to hit the location.  

The problem I see is the fact that the AI never really seems to attack with their bombs.  Most scripts I have seen just camcreate a bomb, which is okay.  So I need to ask, is there a way to force the pilot to fire??

If you need further clarification, I'll be glad to clear it up.

It's not perfect, but here's an idea :
Use the invisible targets thing..
Now, use onmapclick, camcreate a invisible laser or armoured (Or both to make sure ;)), and maybe a tank over it to make it seem normal..
Then use plane move [] command on the plane to where the target is.. Then it should attack the area..
Then to stop it delete vehicle and plane move [0,0,0] and delete vehicle(? If you need it only once.. If not, no need to delete it ;))

If you understood that, it might work.. Camcreate a east target, for a west plane.. That shouldl stop the enemy/east from firing on it :)

Hope this work ::)

Eh, actually once I found the SPT Pack, I forgot all about this thread, as it does Iron Bombing well, and then some.
