Making an IED Disruptor (with an satchel config replacement)

[Tankbuster 1747]

Guys,

I've had a number of proficient coders looking at this with varying degrees of success and I'm very grateful to all of them, but none of them have managed to get this to work.

As part of an roadside bomb script that plugs into a mission I'm working on, I want my engineers to have the ability to render the bombs safe using a disruptor charge.

The charge is basically a reconfigged satchel and works the in the same way, except that it's explosive power is much reduced.

Here's the relevant parts of my config.cpp so far.

class CfgAmmo
{
class PipeBomb;

class TKY_Disruptor : PipeBomb
{
	hit = 50;
	indirectHit = 20;
	indirectHitRange = 5;
	cratereffects = "GrenadeCrater";
	explosioneffects = "GrenadeExplosion";
	soundhit[] = {"Ca\sounds\Weapons\explosions\GP25_explosion", 3.16228, 1, 1300};
	model="\ca\Weapons\satchel";
};
}

class CfgWeapons
{
class PipeBomb;

class TKY_Disruptor : PipeBomb 
               { 
               scope=1; 
               enableAttack=1; 
               ammo="TKY_Disruptor"; 
               displayName="IED Disruptor"; 
               nameSound="satchelcharge"; 
               count=1; 
               initSpeed=0; 
               maxLeadSpeed=0; 
               showEmpty=0; 
               useAction=1; 
               useActionTitle="Put %1 (%2 left)"; 
               magazines[]={"this"}; 

               descriptionShort="IED D Charge"; 
               }; 
};

However, this doesn't work as required. I'll knock up a quick YT vid.

Ah, scratch the YT vid. :) I'm getting config.bin errors. :(

My own research has shown the config for the satchel is odd. I'm the first to admit I'm not at all familiar with them and I thought that it would simply be a case of plugging it onto a new model, but that's just not how it works.

I'd love some input from those who know more about this than me.
