Close Air Support Field System v0.4b

Hi i have a question:

 

I use this script for a long time now in multiplayer without any problems.

I added a respawn dialog for the players it shows up for every player in game, but not the players with the CAS variable name.

So i know why because of the variable name CAS on the unit.

 

How to add the cas menu to players without using variable name CAS ?

Is there a possibility to give the cas menu without using CAS variable name on the unit ?

Great script!

I've find an issue , it seems not working without all the indicator in the map. 

 

In SP , with Veteran difficulty ( so no enemy indicators in the map ) the airplane pass near the CAS point but dont drop the bomb.

I remember playing mission made by JW in the ArmA 2 days......nice, simple, fun missions.

 

I just found this script.  Does anyone know if it is still working on a dedicated w/ JIP players?

I can target and damage the aircraft, which is nice. I can't seem to create a trigger for "any player" trigger option. After that I am hoping to get and way to randomize the location of the trigger to a list of coordinates so that players won't avoid the same locations a static trigger is placed. I have tested locations in Editor only.

hi.

 

Nice script, however:

 

1. napalm drop is not accurate at all:

the bombs drop way off the marked position

 

2. even if I disallow some ammo (JDAM and CBU), when I call for cas, if I don't change to napalm, the plane will drop JDAM or CBU

I used to use that script....and if I remember correctly, there's a "nearest target" option when you call CAS....otherwise is pretty unprecise....

As above, I do recall having to set up bomb type every CAS run....

Yup, but even with that, it's quite imprecise too.

It's not such a big deal.

Problem is, even with disabled ammunitions, with a message saying that it's not available, it turns out that it still is.

If I do remember, that was a limit of that script....

Same as above.

Actually, I'm surprise it still work..it's kinda old.....it was an  awesome script when it came out, but outdated nevertheless.

 

For my mini campaign I adapted a JDAM script from Alias to use a laser cursor target instead a marker to drop the bomb..added jet fly-over noise..radio chat..and BOOM...JDAM stryke is available. He has a NAPALM SCRIPT that you can use as I did...

Since im VERY new to mission creating, i came looking for items to use and i know i've seen this used before so here i am in year 2020. So im making a Multiplayer Warlords mission and i was wondering if we can get it to where a JTAC on Blufor and a JTAC on Opfor could use this script while also using their types of aircraft? I'm also not a script god but going over the scripts i notices its for WEST (blufor) and that the plane it uses by default is the AAF buzzard. Probably asking for to much but hey, worth an attempt.
