"cruise missiles"
« on: 30 Nov 2002, 05:34:40 »
I want to camcreate using the radio missles that will fire onto where I am pointing my laser.

 I want to simulate an off-shore missile firing, then have it come and and hit the Laser's dot.  I was thinking of using Mavericks as Cruise Missiles.

 There's a few ways I think I can go about this, but what is the easiest, and does anyone know how.

 1-Pointing the laser, triggering the radio, then the explosive will detonate right on the laser.  Via a time delay, noting is flying in from offshore.

 2-Somehow getting the Maverick to lock onto the Laser target and be created offshore to fly in and hit the laser.

 3-Getting the Maverick to fly in, unguided right onto where the initial place of the dot.

 I don't know how to get started on this, anyone's help is appreciated.

I would use a static spot(s) in which to fire the missiles at.

He means the laser designator.

There was a script in the ed depot a while back which acted as SAM's. Mebbe you could use that. :-\

You could just make a new missile that uses a laser designator and then just put it on a vehicle

U could say something like:

Code: [Select]
#Fire
_tX = getpos _tgtX select 0
_tY = getpos _tgtX select 1
_tZ = getpos _tgtX select 2

@Targetted
_tgtX getpos _target select 0

~0.05
_laserdot = "Laserdesignator" CamCreate [_tX,_tY,_tZ]

?(_target = objNULL):exit
goto "Fire"

Even though I'm a horrible scripter, this snippet might hold some value.
