Andreas_Forkbeard 1 Posted November 27, 2020 what are the commands for lowering the ramps of the landing crafts? have been looking around but cant find a list of the commands... specifically im looking for the commands for the LCU Mk10 and LCU-1610 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
W0lle 1048 Posted November 27, 2020 LCU-1610 Front ramp down: this animate ["ramp_front",1]; this animate ["ramp_front_hook",1]; this animate ["ramp_front_wheels",1]; this animate ["led_ramp_front_off",0]; Rear ramp down: this animate ["ramp_rear",1]; this animate ["led_ramp_rear_off",0]; Mk 10 Front ramp down: this animate ["FrontRamp",1]; this animate ["FrontRampRubber",-0.7]; Rear ramp down: this animate ["rearRamp",1]; 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NightIntruder 710 Posted January 9, 2021 May I suggest some improvement over existing ramp opening mechanizm in the LCU/LCAC vessels? I took it from my own iterration of Burne's Mk.10. More incremental opening allows for adjustments whenever they are needed - steep shoreline, quey, ship ramp, etc. Default shortcuts, ie. gun elevation down/up are usually not needed in driver position, they're quite intuitive and simple in use. Obviously, in this example below you have animationSource instead of several animations you use to open ramp of, for example, LCU1610. So, some adjustments are required. This method is quite old, currently people use CBA bindings but hey, it's just something to start with. class front_ramp_down { displayName = "lower front ramp"; displayNameDefault = "lower front ramp"; position = "driver_action"; //mem point close to driver proxy radius = 2.5; shortcut = "gunElevDown"; //default: PgDn key condition = "this animationSourcePhase ""FrontRamp_source"" < 1"; statement = "this animateSource [""FrontRamp_source"",((this animationSourcePhase ""FrontRamp_source"")+0.05)];"; }; class front_ramp_up { displayName = "raise front ramp"; displayNameDefault = "raise front ramp"; position = "driver_action"; radius = 2.5; shortcut = "gunElevUp"; //default: PgUp key condition = "this animationSourcePhase ""FrontRamp_source"" > 0"; statement = "this animateSource [""FrontRamp_source"",((this animationSourcePhase ""FrontRamp_source"")-0.05)];"; }; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chairborne 2594 Posted January 18, 2021 ramp anim is just there for visuals, you're not really supposed to use it cause driving vehicles on it will cause havoc on physx, if you want it set to a specific height it can be scripted, but i dont think it's smart to require you to hit a button 20 times to get an animation to play fully Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NightIntruder 710 Posted January 18, 2021 The solution is not invented to fully open the ramp, you missed the point, Chairnborne. It is to adjust the ramp angle to fit with whatever the vessel was supposed to be moored to, with such small incremental steps for better adjustment. The fully opened ramp very often looks dumb as it usually moves the vessel's bow up so the boat is partially in the air. Some skilled SQF guy would easily transfer the solution to smooth way of opening ramp, with animation played only while a key is kept pressed. After all, you can leave the old system regardless the new, incremental opening and let people decide which one they want to use in specific circumstances - whether they need old scroll menu with 100% close/open or the new, incremental one under PgUp/PgDn right? BTW, what do you mean "havoc" on physx regarding LCU + vehicles? Wierd phsyx interactions during MP tests? I am asking, beacuse I had only one case of my Mk10 capsized on the highest sea state due to heavy loadout shift, no ViV, pure phsyx involved. Sure, vehs were moving a bit during transportation, but get no damage. But that was during SP tests a couple of years ago, so no idea how it would end up in MP tests these days.

oneisdown 16 Posted January 20, 2021 does anyone know the command to unload all cargo for the lcu1610? I am trying to have the ai beach up on the shore line and then let the cargo vehicles out. If I use the waypoint "vehicle get out" the lcu coasts up on top of the unloaded vehicles and creates mayhem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understood your point the first time, and i'm telling you why i consider it a waste of time for a convoluted solution that adds really nothing valuable to the game. If you dislike it feel free to write your own overhaul mod so it works in a way that better suits your needs. By havoc i mean things exploding, ragdolling, being shot in the sky at impossible speeds and other weird stuff you're really not meant to do cause the engine doesn't support it. I wouldn't trust the success of an arma session on transporting assets by driving them on an LCU and risk physx bugging out potentially wasting an evening of fun with my friends when a properly working in-engine solution is provided.

It takes a bit of fiddling but it can be made to work, the AI needs a lot of handholding. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thirith 27 Posted February 25, 2021 We're currently mostly playing missions like Dynamic Recon Ops and TRGM2, where you can mix and match factions, so I was wondering: how well does it work to set up CUP factions against, say, RHS factions or factions from Project OPFOR? Are there things to keep in mind that don't work particularly well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are there things to keep in mind that don't work particularly well? RHS follows its own balance compared to CUP, especially when it comes to AI. Here's a topic on it. Damage, armour, and accuracy values may differ significantly. I'd recommend going either fully with CUP or fully with RHS, and not mix them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thirith 27 Posted February 26, 2021 Thanks, that's what I thought I'd previously read somewhere. I'll stick to that rule of thumb. Any idea what the situation's like with respect to Project OPFOR? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krzychuzokecia 713 Posted February 26, 2021 Project OPFOR requires RHS, so it's safe to assume their values are based on RHS. If you're looking for PrOPFOR equivalent in CUP realm, then CFP (Community Factions Project) is the way to go. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
