Laser Designator - Info Required
« on: 03 Dec 2002, 16:37:56 »
Does anyone have a GOOD understanding of how OFP does the Laser designator? Does it use an object and a getpos type script? Is the "dot" an object, and what is it's name...etc. ChupChup (my OFP partner in-crime) is trying to make a CruiseMissile script that uses the Laser Designator...and needs the info. So if you can help with information your reply would be gratefully received  ;D

the dot is an object, "lasertarget".  Check out the "artillery suite" in the tutorial section for a couple of scripts (InitLLD.sqs) that let you track the dot.
(You need a trigger to detect it.  If you work at it, you can make that same trigger track the dot, but it's ugly).

Thanks for that. I might have a nice Cruise Missile script before too long :)
