ray243 11 Posted June 2, 2010 I'm not too sure if this goes into scripts or addons.....So if I am wrong, can a mod move this to the correct place? The thing I am talking about, is that. A smart cluster bomb. Right now, I'm not too sure if it is possible for it to break into tiny canisters in mid-air, open up a parachute, and dispersing the projectiles, and allow it to lock on to a target. And I think the only way is to have some bomb, with mines attached to it, and a parachute attached to it. the hard part is where the skids fire up their rocket motor and independently find and destroy the targets. I have no experience in scripting, so I think this is close to impossible to work in Arma 2. WHat are your thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkhorse 1-6 16 Posted June 2, 2010 You need to put this in the Addon Request thread, under Addons & Mods Discussion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CarlGustaffa 4 Posted June 3, 2010 Doesn't the builtin SADARM cover this already? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NutzMcKracken 17 Posted June 3, 2010 CBU-97 actions are quite script intense. You can get about the same effect as the SADARM being added to a Cluster Bomb.....the thing is there's only been one proper cluster bomb released back in ArmA 1 that actually had cluster bomb pop open and bomblets released....problem with it though (from personal experience of making a CBU-87) is that in order to get the proper effect you have to drop something like the CBU-97 from pretty high up and not many players would know to do this. As it is with the AT_Rockeye and my CBU-87 is that you need to drop them above 125 altitude and even if it locks to a target the bomblets latency in spawning make it not so accurate and the pilot has to compensate for the azimuth of the bomblets. CBU-97 SFW's are pretty cool, but as complex and deadly as they are...its difficult to script properly and can be difficult to implement into gameplay. However you can sample the CBU-87's soon as I'll be releasing them to the Public next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NutzMcKracken 17 Posted June 6, 2010 Note that I've since decide to wait till around the 4th of July, should be enough time to test it with Arrowhead and make sure things work 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
