Can other weapons lock on to the white box?
I'm thinking fire one weapon to 'paint' and a second weapon which can lock onto it?

^ seems like an obvious idea so I would assume it's already been suggested.

You have given me an idea for something there, but currently no one else can see it.

If I understand it, it would be a TV missile, Wire guided laser box. I believe I once tried suggesting that, and I just said "Why not have it so you click once and the laze lands where you clicked in helicopters?"

It somehow got shot down for being harder to use than the current model

I'd like for you guys to make sure that you can unclick missile locks on flares. For example...

Choper -> Aim at it -> Flares -> Missile locks on flare before being fired -> unlock lock -> missile locks on target again, this time choper -> BOOOOOOM.

Please?

Eh, just so you know, as it is in CA, the system is completely different from PR.

The flares are not things that can be locked on. They simply will hide the heat target of the aircraft if it's within the 5m range.

This is why AA is far more effective in CA compared to PR. Spamming flares doesn't really help if you don't know where you're being locked from.

Have you played Combined Arms? You can't lock onto flares, all the flares do is hide the heat source of the aircraft and distroy any projectiles that hit them (the flares have a spherical collision mesh with a radius of 3(?)m).

edit: damn Hunt3r you sneeky ninja!

Would be nice if we could get some people on the server next weekend; organise an event or something.

Which is why descending into your flares in a helo while spinning and spamming more in all directions is a good idea.

I feel as I'll waste many hours on this mod. Better than I could've wanted


Where can you download the damn thing? I've googled it and I can't find the homepage.
Nvm I found it ;D
