mandoble 1 Posted March 4, 2007 This works nice in OFP (LaserGuidedBomb instead of Bo_GBU12_LGB), but I see no way to make it work in ArmA. Tested with different ammos and no luck. So, how to create an explosion in the air in Arma? <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> _dir = getDir player _pos = [(getPos player select 0)+sin(_dir)*100,(getPos player select 1)+cos(_dir)*100, 100] _b1 = "Bo_GBU12_LGB" createVehicle _pos _b2 = "Bo_GBU12_LGB" createVehicle _pos exit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TiGGa 0 Posted March 4, 2007 Create a solid object right where the bomb is. After explosion, you can delete the object again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mandoble 1 Posted March 4, 2007 I can create a T72, setpos it to the bomb's location but: 1 - The effect is obviously ugly. 2 - The bomb takes 1 or 2 secs to detect collision with the "flying" tank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blanco 0 Posted March 4, 2007 Lol, this reminds of the good old OFP days where we were using M2 machineguns to create explosions. Can you take a smaller solid object? Like telephone or radio... What happens? No explosion at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deanosbeano 0 Posted March 4, 2007 lol i have tried everything with this . even tried setting one at 100 feet and 1 at 99 and have the one at 99 , setvelocity [0,0,10] so it will ram the other above it. then i but a pallet below them both at 10 feet and sent it up to them, guess what it works but the explosion effect happens 10 feet above the ground lol. theres a way ,but i cant afford anymore time now..

Big Dawg KS 6 Posted March 4, 2007 You can give ammo an explosiontime in the config so it will detinate after X amount of seconds, make that 0 (or very very low) and it will detinate as soon as it's created. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mandoble 1 Posted March 4, 2007 Found a solution, the object named "Bomb" and any other ammo <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"> _dir = getDir player _pos = [(getPos player select 0)+sin(_dir)*200,(getPos player select 1)+cos(_dir)*200, 50] _b2 = "Bomb" createVehicle _pos _b2 setPos _pos _b1 = "M_Ch29_AT" createVehicle _pos ~0.05 deleteVehicle _b2 exit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
