ATragMX - Handheld ballistics calculator

Recommended Posts

A few requests:

Give the mission maker an option to enable wind ballistics only to certain units.

In a mission I would like the sniper team to be the only ones with it enabled. The rest of the units should use default vanilla settings.

I don't know if in game items of the ATragMX and Kestrel are in the scope of this mod? If not an ability to enable/disable them in unit init field would be nice, so I can choose which units have them equipped.

@Bullet Purveyor, thanks a lot for the suggestions.

There will be items for the ATragMX and Kestrel in the next update. You will no longer be able to use them without having the corresponding item.

You can already disable the advanced ballistics by calling "unit setVariable ["AdvancedBallistics", false, true]" on every unit you do not want to be affected by it. However, this only works in multiplayer.

Let me know if this solution is appropriate for you.

Edit: @azams, it should show up once you start a mission

When I insert inclination angle for example -3.45° then it gets rounded up to -3. Is this correct behaviour? I can insert temperature normally for example 25.6°C.

Ruthberg, create mod-pack with your mods:

@advancedballistics;

@ATragMX;

@kestrel4500;

and Vector 21b from @BWA3 :cool:

It would be nice. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Sorry, I may be dense, but what do I choose in the gun list for the M200 .408 round? Is there a metric equivalent I should use (10.4 X 77)? If not, is there a simple way to add it to the profile?

@gienkov, yes this is intended.

@goon2503, you can modify an existing profile by entering new data in the gun column.

@Bullet Purveyor, you need to copy the new userconfig file into your userconfig folder or manually add the following lines:

// Here you can define whether or not the clients are forced to use the server settings

#define AB_FORCE_CLIENT_SETTINGS_OVERRIDE true

Ruthberg, please add a zeroyning for PSO scopes: "optic_SUD_PSO1", "optic_SUD_PSO4", "optic_SUD_PSO4_camo". (from mod: @sud_russians)

Elev. 1 click = 50 meters (min= 100 max= 1000 meters)

Wind. 1 click = 1/2 mil (min= -10 max= 10 mil)

I will to find a good solution for those scopes. But the zeroing in meters should be done by the developer of the scopes.

He should add the following to his scope config:

discreteDistance[] = {100,200,300,400,500,600,700,800,900,1000};
discreteDistanceInitIndex = 2;

Sorry to bother you again Ruthberg. Another problem, after the latest update the I can only equip the ATrag on the player I spawn with. The ones I have in ammo boxes and on switchable players don't show up anymore? Something wrong on my end?

The new bullet trail effect was very well done. Thanks for the update.

Another little suggestion. Can shift+K toggle wind indicator ON/OFF, so the player can decide when to remove it again? Not fade away like now.

When you are in position waiting for target is a bit annoying to press shift+k every 10 second. :)

Can you please implement that the device doesn't open when looking through the scope or binoculars?

@bullet purveyor, I will try to implement the key shortcuts as toggle switches.

@brainslush, I can understand why you request this, but then you could no longer use the target speed estimator of the ATragMX. At least you can not interact with the rifle, while the device is open.

Edit:

I will try to reproduce it.
