Laser designator
« on: 15 Nov 2002, 22:27:24 »
Is it possible to track the target designated by a laser designator? I tried using nearestObj to grab the ammo, but it didn't work.

I recall Prospero once posted he achieved reading a chopper's pitch & roll using a laserdesignator... that might be the solution to my problem, but I cant find the thread anymore.

any suggestions much appreciated!

Ok just solved it; nearestObj works fine with "LaserTargetW".

BUt NearestObject only works for what, 50m?  So you have to do a series of scans downrange of the dude with the LaserTarget.

Or set up a trigger to do it -- anybody, repeatedy
Condition:
this and ("LaserTarget" CountType [thislist] > 0)

Activation
LaserInitialized = True; {Format ["LaserTarget%1 = _x", ("LaserTarget" CountType [_x])] ForEach [_x]} ForEach ThisList

Deactivation
Laserinitialized = False

LaserInitialized will be true when the LLD is on, and LaserTarget1 will be the Laser Designator Dot.
