why does Slam explosive device detonate when in front of vehicle

Recommended Posts

it is very frustrating.

i try and put SLAM down in front of a vechile (especially enemy vehcile) and it just goes off.

but if i put it in front of a house or ammo box i can set the timer.

why does vechiles set it off like this? it kills my character every time.

In ARMA2 with ACE, you could choose between the SLAM charge's magnetically-fused bottom attack (land mine), timed detonation, infrared detection using the PIRS, and command detonation mode. I have never used ARMA3 explosives but it sounds like your SLAM is changing between these modes. Sorry I can't help more.

SLAM's in A3 just go off if a Vehicle or Soldier is detected Close. If you want to Take out a Vehicle Command-Detonated either use Satchel Charges, or place the SLAM further away, the Radius should still be big enough to damage the vehicle.

thanks for the reply. if i put the slams about 5m aways from enemy it doesnt go off but the blast does damage a t100 enough to make it explode. bit too powerful it seems but thanks!
