G-LOC 0 Posted February 11, 2004 Some people complain about the limited number off soldier we can control. I have a idea to control more troops or weapons: call support. The COC artillery have a menu option to control. We could use a identical menu to control another things: - Artillery as coc artillery - call close air support (gunship or planes; strafe, drop bombs, rocket salvo; area/point attack) - call Medevac (by air or land) - call reinforcement to complement death troops (transported by choppers, planes, truck, jeep, IFV or by foot) - call support: fuel, repair, ammo, transport (air, land, sea), ammo drop - call team: anti-tank, sniper, engineer (clear minefield), AA, other troops, tank support - Call air support: UAV, air transport, SEAD, CAP, MEDEVAC, CAS We have all this options in several mods (PMC, MCTI), but we can make a mission more easily. We load a plataform and set as we want (artillery, suport, CAS, transport, etc). The player will call if needs. G-LOC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G-LOC 0 Posted February 13, 2004 Yes. I mention COC but I want a mission editor with all this capacity from the beginning and not as a mod. I don´t remember about call replenishment of troops. I read the REQUEST SUMMARY and I want remember: I want choose a keyboard key for the menu item and save the new set for each platform. For instance, I want a shortcut to use flare or start de PC for my F-16. I choose the key and save the set like "f16.kbd". I want so load this set, modify and save to another fighter with another menu itens like ECM, autopilot, etc. I spend much time using menu while flying. This is not useful to infantary but chean the menu. Walk outside a veicle/ship as BF1942 and Delta Force. I want to "get in" and "walk". The RTS game Starcraft have a key to centralize the map where the troops have contact with the enemy (your troops are under attack"). Thean I can comand the battle. The map in OPF could have this options when I hit de friend simbols and go to battle with the option "change body". This can be called jump to battle. If we will change body in OFP2 I want keys to change body inside the group, change group (changing group commander body) and change body in plataform member (pilot/gunner, driver/gunner/tank commander, etc). I need also a formation option when my soldier follow my track (column - follow track). Sametimes I see the soldiers surrounding the houses to keep formation and became exposed to enemy. Playing Rainbow 6 the soldier of my squad always follow my track. I want crew served weapons like Carl Gustav, anti-tank missile, mortar, automatic granade launcher (Mk 19), .50 machineguns, etc. One soldier carrier the launcher and other the ammunitions. When I hit "reload" other members do it. Rocket launchers as RPG-7, Carl Gustav and LAW are effective only against light armored vehicle. Main battle tank only can be damaged. Only heavy weapons a anti-tank missile can pierce. Small weapons can stop, damage de sight, weapons and the engine. When I´m a gunner of a gunship, door gunner or ever a gunner of a AC-130 I will need to tell the pilot were to go. I need control the plane like tank commander: left, right, circle left, circle right, up, down, fast, slow, stop, land, jink etc. First I hit a key like "take command" in menu bar. I want a secondary menu bar to make rare things as animations. G-LOC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
