RKSL-Arma.pbo Extension V1.00

We have a new addon we're trying out, for all our scripted systems, RKSL-Arma.pbo. The idea is, it will automatically apply the scripted systems to any compatible, default Arma addon using inheritance and the Extended Event Handler. This means that many existing missions can be made to automatically use the RKSL scripts, without having to repack. You can now place regular Arma addons and objects in the editor without having to specifically select those from the RKSL vehicle class. Although the addons in the RKSL vehicle classes are still available and will not conflict in any way. In a nutshell, What this means is every BIS aircraft will now use the Flare system. All the supported vehicles can now carry standard ammo and weapons boxes e.t.c without have to use the RKSL equivalents. This is kind of an experiment, so if anyone runs into any problems, please get in touch so we can try and fix them.

Also thanks to the Extended Event Handler we can also apply these scripts to addons that inherit from the default Arma units. A good example of this is most of the vehicles and some of the objects from the A.C.E mod. With the exception of a few vehicles and aircraft, we can support many of the A.C.E addons via RKSL-Arma.pbo. For details see the project page here. You will still have to manual add objects that are not supported as visible cargo, but all the A.C.E Ammo, Weapon, Medic and Sandbag boxes are supported. Any thing that can be, but isn't currently working with the Flares (AH64) and Cargo system (CH47) will be added via a dedicated A.C.E pbo later on. Thanks to the guys at the A.C.E mod for helping us set this up and their help solving some of the problems we had configuring RKSL-Arma.pbo in general.

See RKSL-Arma for more information.

• RKSL System V1.01

Thanks for adding fuel blivets, though the texture they have makes them look wrong. They should look more like smooth rubber with dust splashed across them in places?

[sickboy 13]

Very nice!! Congrats on the Release!

Not according to the reference pics I have.

Great stuff. I have one question though. Is it possible to bind a key to fire countermeasures? Sometimes it takes time to select flares if plane/heli has a lot of different weapons (KA50 for example: 2 cannon fire modes, rockets, missiles and then flares). Before you get to flares missile hits you.

You dont need to change weapons, the flares will fire automatically.

Thats great then.

[M.Andersson(SWE) 4]

Love it..

Loved the previous too though...

Lets say i want to use the chinook as a transport, what then..

It doesent work now..Without the init that is...

Let say i need to tranport 1 RKSL Crate filled with 5 ammocrates

+ a Repair crate + a fuel roll...In the chinook...

[UNN 0]

Love it..

Cheers, would like to have added some significantly new functionality, but really busy atm. Hopefully we may be able to add one more feature before Arma2 is out.

Lets say i want to use the chinook as a transport, what then

The allocated sizes are:

Fuel_Roll=4.1 (the .1 is to prevent it being carried by smaller vehicles like the 4x4, as invisible cargo).

Repair_pallet=4

Crate=4

So the capacity for the CH47 can be around 13. If you add this line to it's init field you should be ok:

[This,13] Call RKSL_TransportAdd

I will document the size and capacity for all the visible Cargo and Vehicles.

[M.Andersson(SWE) 4]

Yes i know about the initline, but i kind of expected it to be automated

with this release. It is automated with the rest of the vehics...

I love the fact i dont NEED to write in the init anymore...

About beeing busy...Take your time...I just hope you´ll find the

effort to port it to A2, will be woth it...
