Laser Designator

[Arrowhead 0]

I was able to get a Harrier to bomb targets when I paint it with the laser, works nicely. But how do I get the AI to use the designator and paint specific buildings and what not?

Would it even be possible to do this?

Try doTarget or doWatch together with nearestObject_id.

Did you happen to be running FRAPS when the Harrier hit the target? Because I'd love to see that!

I have tried to get AI to target invisible helipads, but they just put the laser designator away after few seconds.

You could make the laser target manually with

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">Laser = "LaserTargetW" CreateVehicle targetPos

Use LaserTargetE instead if you want to make the laser visible to SLA. The laser disappears few seconds after it has been created, but it can be made visible again with setPos command for another few seconds.

Thanks for the replies  

The Sharks Airstrike script works pretty well. I just set up a trigger with the bombrun.sqs and let er fly. While it's not a targetted strike from Harrier->Tank, it's pretty close. It works for "carpet bombing." Modify the script with the names for six harriers and whalla! Quite a show!

It's strange actually, I set up a trigger and put this in the OnAct

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">harr1 doFire "Bomblauncher"

and it releases a GBU, sometimes   Other times it's like the trigger doesn't get recognized.

I'm gonna try to find a way for the Harrier to get the tank's position, then target it, THEN release the ordinance, next.

There must be a way to target a tank then fire on it specifically

Enjoy this FRAPS capture of me targeting for a buddy while he flew the Harrier, then he lased while I flew, so you'll see the external view of the hit + my view while I flew and bombed two of his lased targets.
