RHS pentetration system config help

[tachi 10]

So to configure custom addons to be compatible with RHS penetration system you need to do next steps(only for RPGS ammo)

add this clas in cfgAmmo:

class rhs_ammo_3bk12_penetrator;

class my_custom_penetrator: rhs_ammo_3bk12_penetrator

{

hit=550; //can be annything

caliber="(540/((15*1000)/1000))"; // taken from rpg7 vl ammo

};

And then add this to the needed ammo config:

class class my_custom_penetrator
{
	rhs_ce_penetration="maaws_hedp_penetrator";
       };

AFAIK this penetrator will only affect vehicles from RHS mod, others vehicles wont be affected by this penetrator parametr.

Pardon me if i'm wrong.

#define RHA(mm,speed) caliber=(mm/((15*speed)/1000));
//penetration calculating macro
//type desired penetration & shell typical speed

class rhs_ammo_3bk12 : rhs_ammo_3bk_base 
{
hit = 200; //keep it low, otherwise game engine will skip whole armor structural thing, yet, having it stronger (i.e. like 350 or [untested] 400, should make such shell acting like tandem rocket - ERA bricks should be destroyed upon impact without slowing down jet stream
rhs_ce_penetration="rhs_ammo_3bk12_penetrator"; //3bk12 will be replaced upon impact with penetrator class
};

class rhs_ammo_3bk12_penetrator : rhs_ammo_3bm_base 
{
rhs_ce_penetration="penetrator"; //that spawned penetrator shouldn't fire up once again hit event handler - keep it that way
RHA(420,1000)
indirectHit = 0;
indirectHitRange = 0;
explosive = 0;
typicalSpeed = 1000; //keep it at that level, as other values cause strange behaviour upon impact
timeToLive = 0.03; //we don't want long living jet streams, do we?
whistleOnFire = 1;
whistleDist = 14;
deflecting = 0;
model = "\A3\Weapons_f\empty";
};

//example classes, 
class rhs_ammo_3bk14 : rhs_ammo_3bk_base 
{
hit = 210;
rhs_ce_penetration="rhs_ammo_3bk14_penetrator";
};

class rhs_ammo_3bk14_penetrator : rhs_ammo_3bk12_penetrator
{
//example usage of penetration macro
RHA(450,1000)

};

without special materials in fire geometry it doesn't make too much sense but at least penetrator is spawned so if something is RAM compatibile, it should do more or less trick

	class EventHandlers: EventHandlers
	{
		hitpart = "_this call SLX_XEH_EH_HitPart;_this call rhs_fnc_hitHandler";
	};

or

in editor

this addEventHandler ["hitpart",{_this call rhs_fnc_hitHandler}]

How does this compare to work done on RAM and is it compatible?

[tachi 10]

Thanks for the answer. Does this mean that I don't have to define hit parameter inside penetrator class, only rha?

[reyhard 2082]

@Bumgie - it's partially compatible now and will be changed in the future

@Tachi - you can change it a little bit as it's main source of damage. If you have time feel free to experiment with that
