Herculess bombing run?

[thierry007 10]

Is it possible to use Init scripts to make a Herculess drop bombs? (like carpet bombing ) And i dont mean it to be used with som but it could be possible but currently just Mortar shells being dropped/fired from a Herculess on the ground below. ( by a trigger or every 7 minutes etc )

[Coronel_Niel 10]

Well, you could just make the "Herculess" or what aircraft you want fly over and then an explosion to happen on the ground.

If you want the hercules to actually drop the bomb thats harder but easily do-able.

Im not sure any way else if you want a "carpet-bombing" effect, but creating invisible h's on every bomb explosion spot, because it would have to be from north - south or east-west ect ect.

Create 6 invisible h's in a bombing effect, ie, 2 in a line, and 6 in total, like the 6 on a dice.

name each one, Bomb1, bomb2, bomb3 ect.

Then put in the init line

[bomb1] exec "bomb.sqs" Change bomb1 for bomb2 through to bomb6

Create a script called "bomb.sqs" Inside it put:

_thePoint = _this select 0

_bombLoc = GetPos _theObject
_bombLocX = _bombLoc select 0
_bombLocY = _bombLoc select 1
_bombLocZ = _bombLoc select 2

*ammo*  createVehicle[_bombLocX, _bombLocY, _bombLocZ]
exit

This should work, but replace *ammo* with the ammo type you want.

If you want a blast from the round of a tank shell, replace it with

Sh_125_HE

If you want the blast type from a hellfire missile, use

M_Hellfire_AT

If you want a Laser Guided Bomb explosion, which you probably do (No Laser Needed, btw.) use

Bo_GBU12_LGB

For the LGB, the line would look like

Bo_GBU12_LGB  createVehicle[_bombLocX, _bombLocY, _bombLocZ]

Hope this helps.

You mean like this thread you find should you actually search for "carpet bombing"?

[thierry007 10]

I downloaded that script thing going to test it for Coronel niel's thing i would need a little more explanation but i understand the parts of zhe bombs Muahaha =p

Edit: how would i do it then to make my enemy bomb me? ( for example im from opfor one of our fortified sites is under attack how can i get the blufor to carpet bomb it then?

[kylania 567]

Do you want them to kill you, or just come close to it?

[thierry007 10]

Come close to it =p ( depends if im there or not but getting them to use it would be nice so the player doesnt has to do it =p ( if possible even possible for opfor ) that script i didnt really figure out how to use it Heh ( still trying tho lol )

Does someone know witch ammo i need to destroy a tank? I've tried the three types from Colonel_Niel's post but the tank's still standing after 18! hits...

[kylania 567]

Here's a little something to keep your player on his toes. It'll spawn a LGB explosion 50-60 meters from them in a random direction wherever they are. So it'll follow them. :)

_bombcount = 5;

for "_x" from 1 to _bombcount do
{
_distance = (random 10) + 50;
_direction = random 360;
_destination = [(getPosASL player select 0)+((Sin _direction)*_distance), (getPosASL player select 1)+((Cos _direction)*_distance), getPosASL player select 2];
_effect = "Bo_GBU12_LGB" createVehicle getPosASL player; 
_effect setPosASL _destination; 
sleep 4;

};

50m minimum seemed to be the closest I could get without outright killing a foot soldier, but close enough to put the fear of god into them. However, anything that happens to be 50m away from this guy should be very afraid.

This'll do it nicely:

_bomb = "Bo_GBU12_LGB" createVehicle getPosASL tank;

[IndeedPete 1038]

Thanks, but i found out what my mistake was. I used a false variable name so the actual bomb never "reached" the target. :rolleyes: It's always such a stupid mistake.^^

[thierry007 10]

Didnt figure out how to let em bomb me Heh ( dont know where to put yer code =p and it says 2 errors first one (forgot it) second one says ; is missing? Heh i make many mistakes

[Coronel_Niel 10]

To be honest, I thought about it, and if you wanted it more than once on different spots, its probably work doing it a different way. Longer, but more flexable. Which is what that other script does.

So you should use that script, as mine was just a crude method quickly made from cutting out points from the Ac-130 script im ussing.

[thierry007 10]

im using that script but they didnt want to drop zhe bombz maybe it only works if the player flies it o.o ( i cant fly even a helo yeehaw =p )

[Coronel_Niel 10]

That script just does what it says on the tin.

Read the notes, it creates 2 bombs under each wing and lets them go, in basic terms.

You can make it so when a plane flies over a certain point, a rectangle trigger in a line, like a carpet bombing, it works.

But basicaly, make a plane fly over a spot. Skip this if you know how, but it also flies it in height.

Todo this:

Make a plane, give it a waypoint so it flies over the target, make the "Special" Flying. In name put "bomber"

Then, put in its init line:

this setposASL [(getposASL this select 0), (getposASL this select 1), 500]; this flyinheight 500;

So now, it flys and is in 500 height. Change the red variables for different heights.

Now, make a trigger, where you want the bombs to start dropping. Make it bigger, as the plane might deviate slightly from the waypoint.

Then, put on activation:

[bomber] exec "carpet.sqf"

After thats done, we need to create the script.

Name is carpet.sqf, fill it with:

//variables
_bomb = "RHIB";
_bomb2 = "RHIB";
_plane = _this select 0;
_i= 0;
player globalChat format["%1","Bombs away!"];


//spawning bombs
for [{_i=1}, {_i<6}, {_i=_i+1}] do  //change 6 for whatever number of bombs you want the c-130 to be able to drop (here its  6x2 = 12 bombs)
{
_bomb = "Bo_GBU12_LGB" createVehicle [1000, 1000, 1000];
_bomb attachTo [_plane, [4, 0, -5]]; //spawn under left wing
sleep 0.01;  //allow the bomb to be attached before detaching it
detach _bomb;
sleep 0.15;


_bomb2 = "Bo_GBU12_LGB" createVehicle [1000, 1000, 1000];
_bomb2 attachTo [_plane, [-4, 0, -5]]; //spawn under right wing
sleep 0.01;  //allow the bomb to be attached before detaching it
detach _bomb2;
sleep 0.15;
};

//destroying variables
_bomb = nil;
_bomb2 = nil;
_plane = nil;
_i = nil;

Thats it.

[thierry007 10]

Okay seems easy need to figure out what trigger i would need but i understand the rest now =] EDIT: is putting that code in a .txt file named carpet.sqf good too? ( Woulndt know how to make a SQF file )

Edited August 16, 2009 by thierry007

[Coronel_Niel 10]

Put it in a text file, when you save it name it carpet.sqf and set file type to all

[Väinämöinen 0]

THE BROKEN ARROW: "Hercules paradrop, bombing, cluster bombing and carpet bombing SuperFXâ„¢" script:

- Just copy all files to your mission folder and it will run on default settings.

- In examples 5 bombers will drop 10 bombs each to the target provided by you.

- Supports troop paradrops

- Supports now cluster and conventional bombs. Cluster bomb configurations ie. options for area of effect, submunition count,explosion height

- Cluster submunitions can be any given type: grenades, mines, smokeshells etc.

- Supports unlimited bombing or paradrop waves with given intervals.

- Easy to configure. Read init.sqf for more details and use configuration section inside init.sqf.

- Plane can be any given side or class

- Paratroopers can be modified to be any given class

- Activated via radio and giving coordinates on map click

- Includes dispersion bombing and more precise hits

- Script cleans itself aka deletes spawned bombers after bombing run

- Preview mode for observing. Player will be teleported onboard bomber fleet and kicked out over sea after bombing mission. Enable/disable from configuration

- (To do paradrop settings : more settings for paratroopers ie. multiple targets, waypoints, not sure about loadouts)

- (To do: one simple configuration file with explanations and multiplayer compatibility. It will come when ill update this to version 1.0) :P

If you are lazy like me, here is the ready for use demo mission: Demo

Clusterbombing

More screens

Carpetbombing - Look! Is that granny in fireball...? ...LoL

Paradropping

WW2 style massive bomber formations - Sir! We bombed the whole island! ...but missed the target.

This will spawn x amount of hercules each with x amount of GBUs/clusterbombs/paratrooper (you can put 1-1000 hercules if you want to kill your CPU). They will come all from one random direction. Your job is act as spotter and mark target via map click and in case of paratroops, their drop point and the attack target. Script can be easily modified to disable map clicking and be activated by triggers and different conditions.

Script can be configured from init.sqf. Configure trigger statements as you like.

Go and blow everything up!

If you dont wan't to use "preview mode" meaning you will be transported onboard bomber squadron then use switch _previewMode=FALSE from init.sqf

In mission radio alpha triggers annihilation. If you want to disable giving target via map click then edit _giveTargetsViaMapClick=FALSE from init.sqf

If you don't want to use map clicking these settings must be completed:

Put targetx named trigger or object on map and it will act as the bomb target or in the case of paradrop as the drop point for the troops. If paradrop switch was used you need movetargetx named object/trigger on map. It will act as the attack target for the troops.

It's been a while since i looked into demo mission but just tested it:

1. Use the radio menu 0-0-0 to call for an airstrike

2. You will be asked for coordinates - give those by clicking on the map

3. Planes will arrive to coordinates
