    Seeing the AMV-7 Marshall being loaded into the Blackfish in the Tac Ops image reminds me of an issue I forgot to raise: When using the Unload Vehicle option on the Blackfish/Xi'an while on the deck of the USS Freedom the vehicle being unloaded deploys its parachute and usually explodes. I'd say that the minimum height for the parachute to spawn when using the Unload Vehicle functionality should be increased to at least the same height as the deck. Also: How is this new? How is this different to the current bis_fnc_holdactionadd ?

    Does anyone else get this message when trying to log into the BI Wiki?

    Not sure when it finally got implemented but the dispersion on the unguided aircraft rockets are a nice touch!

    Dynamic Vehicle Loadouts feedback

    Does this explain why when I equip Scalpel missiles on the Hellcat for the gunner it doesn't work?

    Data Sharing is not on by default for most vehicles. The only entities with Data Sharing on by default are the new turrets introduced with Jets DLC. This should ensure that legacy missions are not impacted negatively. In regards to the the Centurion/Spartan: one benefit of allowing the new non-LOS weapon locking using data shared from another active radar source is that you can have that Centurion/Spartan engaging targets without having to activate it's own radar. Naturally the benefit of this is that the turret is concealed from the RWR. Pilots could potentially only see one active radar source but could potentially be engaged by many more launchers. This can lead to exciting mission scenario designs whereby 'SOF' have to infiltrate the enemy area and destroy the lone active radar in order to disable many launchers. The balancing aspect, as always, is down to the scenario designer. :) I do love the idea of a static object that could simply house a 360 degree active radar capability and this is something I mentioned the minute they announced the sensor update. For the time being my only recommendation is to use the Praetorian CIWS with 0 ammunition loaded with data sharing enabled.

    In regards to the last point; yes. I tested it this morning.
  7. Nope, not at all. I can see a use for it even in Mil-Sim style missions. Cheers for that mate. Will we still be able to use "hasdriver=-1" in scripting or will this be vehicle config side?
  8. @oukej Are you please able to confirm/deny if "hasdriver=-1" (thus allowing single person tank controls) is an intended behaviour that will be staying?
  9. The Kuma is much better to drive now. Was playing around with it and then went back to a Slammer and couldn't stand it.

    IDAP Zamak does not have the rear bench Fire-from-vehicles seats.

    Current Dev branch has the PiP internal screen and right hand side mirrors of the Strider non-functional. They're just black. Left hand side mirrors are functional.

    An easier method for setting the Strider and Gorgon to have the NATO olive drab 'skin' is to use the Virtual Garage from the main menu, select the skin and use the Export function. Then open your mission in the editor, open the Edit Vehicle Appearance and select the Import button. It will assign the skin.

    Yeah was just about to come here and report that there's no dispersion as yet for the rockets. Building the back end.

    General Discussion (dev branch)

    Have you actually tried this in game yet? Does it add the dispersion factor to existing rockets already? If so Im super happy about this for the exact reason you mentioned.

    "Added: Sounds during parachute descent for both first and third person views" Yeessss!!! Keep it up BI doing a stellar job!

    Laws of War DLC Cluster Munitions

    How will this be affected when animals are local entities in MP environment?
  17. Stay off the grass ;) Thanks for that @R3vo Has anyone else got the Bronze time trial achievement? Despite having now got the bronze for all the 5 trials I can't seem to unlock the actual achievement. Would be nice to get it given how many more grey hairs those trials gave me (especially the TT15 Off Road Excavations grrrr). Also, so when are we getting to head over to South Lombakka?

    Laws of War DLC Cluster Munitions

    It's a mine itself, similar to a Claymore. Place it, detonate and watch as a bunch of AP mines are dispersed.
  19. Does anyone know which particular function is called when this is bis_fnc_holdaction is called on the laptops during the IDAP Showcase? Is this just the same "BIS_fnc_initLeaflet" that the leaflets use but with a larger fullscreen image? Would absolutely love to get this kind of thing into some of my missions. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/867360078972122176/8430C8AB051F1876A65F9C677CC3982F2195ABBF/

    Laws of War DLC Mines

    The 15m radius is fine enough as is for vanilla game play. Unless you are literally expecting everyone to walk everywhere than 15m is enough of a distance. Keep in mind that unless the engineer is going first or the squad is bunched up within a 15m radius (which presents its own risks) then minefields are still going to be extremely potent. @DnA would it be possible to see the prop object "FlagMarker_01_F" included as a usable item by the player? Similar to the training mine in that a player can place/remove it but it is not an explosive device. This would allow players who have a mine detector to visually indicate to other players the exact position of a mine.

    The new UAV's cannot be re-packed back into backpack form. Not sure if intended behaviour or not.

    Please fix VTOL power curve

    hey no worries mate, glad to see my stuff helping people. :)
  23. Imperator[TFD]

    Please fix VTOL power curve

    Zero issues here with landing either VTOL anywhere. Listen carefully to the part where I discuss the 'nose drop' at roughly 140 speed. Pay attention to that and you'll be set.
