Simple MP Mortar/Arty
« on: 25 Mar 2008, 20:16:46 »
Are there any scripts available or has anyone got any hints on getting the following in game:

A Multiplayer-friendly system for co-op games, that would allow only specified player slots (ie, Signallers/Forward Air Controllers) to call off-map mortar and arty rounds by clicking on the map.
By either using the radio or action menu (whichever is easier to build).
Be able to spawn coloured smoke (for airstrike-marking/signalling/cover), illumination and HE rounds above clicked area after a delay and side chat comms.

Basically, the scripts we've currently looked at are overly complex for what we need. Although we realise what benefits having "real" arty brings to the game, a simpler solution would be preferred by us, in terms of what can be called in, and keeping mission building simple.

Cheers!

Anything? I'd have thought there'd be a few simple pointers seeing as there are such complex arty scripts out there?

Try this, and use search to look for mortar and/or artillery as there are more dedicated threads to this matter.
