LGB strike without SOM

Recommended Posts

I,M having trouble with the cas in the som menu. The code is right i double checked it. All the other support functions work but when i call for an airstrike the spot is marked on the map and i wait with the laser designator but most of the time they dont show up or go down in the distance for some reason while there isent any anti air in the area. Can someone tell me to call for air support without the SOM module. I just think its to inreliable .

hmm i have a lot of scripts for dropping LGB's on targets but theyre embedded in the evolution architecture - not sure it will help, but you might get some ideas from it

look at the csupport script in the GITS evolution zip here

I just made a radio-trigger which set the plane's waypoint to the player's location. When you laser something with the plane around, it will bomb it.

This depends often of the level of the terrain in which the airstrike is called because there are two factors responsible for the precision. It's on the one hand the flyinheight and on the other hand the distance to the target before the bombs are released. So sometimes the plane simply just crashes into a mountain/hill/trees.

try this script out....

It would be good . But there are 2 things.

It should be a LGB attack not a dum bomb attack.

My current discription.ext doesnt like yours. I tried to modify but i get errors all the time.

I suspected the whole problem to have to do something with the aircraft crashing in the normal secop manager cas. I made the mission in the pantherea map and seem other aircraft and choppers in the mission just crash into the mountain lately. If i new this i would have made the mission on cheneraus, But hey i,m working on a mini campaign and got 3 missions allready laid out on this map and i have done a lot work and put alot of time on the forums and in the editor looking for solutions and it would be insane to start from scratch now.
