Help with BI Artillery/Mortar system integration to a tank

Recommended Posts

Hey.

I am trying to add to the Merkava tank that I am working on a mortar, for the time being its a 120mm mortar[going to be 60mm once I work out the kinks], the M120 thats on the Stryker MC.

I opened the Stryker MC config and found this two lines in the vehicle:

artilleryscanner = 1;

arty_isartyvehicle = 0;

This will give me the Artillery Computer action for the gunner, once I gave the weapon + ammo I could select the mortar in the artillery computer and generate fire missions.

The issue is that the artillery computer is trying to use the main barrel as the mortar tube - its trying to point it in the sky and it can't really go up thus it can't do any fire mission at all because the gun doesn't have enough elevation.

How can I solve this?I am out of ideas, heres the config file:

I tried getting the artillery computer on the commander but it never works[as in not show up] no matter where I put the two lines above which leads me to believe that BI made the artillery computer action gunner only and looking for MainTurret.

If I remember correctly you can set a mortar up by configging it on to a second turret definition, using ObsGun and ObsTurret.

I did manage to get it to work once, but it was a while ago and my memory isn't what it was ...
