As a mere 100 hours Arma 3 player, I can relate

Been playing Arma since 2017 and Viper just taught me something new....never new how to use the triggers in that way for the air support

For CAS: Why not using the CAS Moduls? There are 2 Versions (virtual spawns the Aircraft and the normal one needs an Aircraft placed in the Map) Sync the CAS Module with the Request Module and then the Request Module with the Player. Now you can Request CAS, and after finishing, the AI Return to Base and can bei called again. I noticed, that the Blackfoot will engage with its Minigun, but of you Mark Targets with Laser Designator it start shooting missiles

Can’t believe I never realized there was a way to change the loiter direction simply in the waypoint attributes. Usually nothing is so simple in Arma, so I never even looked. Thanks!

I was literally just trying to figure all of this out in the editor, the timing is perfect.

Great video! I love how you take your time explaining different instructions and points. A true KZreadr that cares for his viewers. Thanks again for the great content :)

Thanks man! I teach how I learn, with thorough instructions. Haha.

These are all really helpful, I've spent ages trying to work out tasks in the past

Nice Video, it helped me a lot! I'd also like to point out about the "Supports" section of the module, which also includes a CAS module. The Virtual one is like your first way of doing it, where the aircraft just spawns in out of nowhere, while the non-virtual one requires a present aircraft on stand-by. This module also allows you to specify where the air strike will be situated while in-game, using the "Support" section of the action commands.

Do more vidéos like this please !

i can not seam to get the plans to land at multiple airports either it circles the one it took off from or goes to land at the first land point and land then goes back tot he airport it took off from does not even land there and just goes back to the first land point again can not get it to take off and land at multiple airports

I've got an interesting request. Is there any way to make an aircraft rearm and refuel via a script upon landing? I'm sure there's a way to do it, I'm just curious how. This would really add to the immersion by making it so allied or enemy aircraft will RTB and return to the battlefield if they encounter anything while on patrol.

@ihavenomindandimustthink

2 жыл бұрын

Place your rearming vehicles like a ammo truck fuel truck ect or a vehicle ammo crate fuel crate ect. Then place your aircraft or patrol vehicle set their waypoints so it will go on a patrol or a seek and destroy with waypoints or waypoints and triggers so when a enemy goes to a certain location the patrol will go there and take care of them. Then set a trigger with the radius of the battle area that the patrol will engage all the hostiles. Set the trigger to skip waypoint when opfor is not present (or what ever faction you want to use) then sync the trigger to your seek and destroy waypoint (make sure you sync it with set waypoint activation) then you can have a movement waypoint set right next to your rearming station make sure you set the placement radius of the movement waypoint to about 1 or 2 by clicking on the movement waypoint and editing the completion radius then you can scroll all the way down and set how long you want the vehicle to stay at the rearming station I would set it for about minimum 15 medium 15 and maximum 15 so that the patrol completely rearms. So intern you have a patrol go to a area and kill all the bad guys and then rtb for resupply and then go back on patrol. If you want to make it continuous make the triggers set on repeatable. I hope this helps and it should work but if not try toying with it.

Does anybody know if it is possible to complete a task by picking up an item? For example, the mission starts and you don't have any equipment. Then you get a task to pick up a gun.

It's a little bit complicated, but in the modifier tab there are a bunch of support modifiers which need syncing to each other. Also can't remember if this was the base game or a addon that allowed this. This video helped me figure it out, hope it helps: kzread.info/dash/bejne/doGVxKqgZNO6drg.html

Place a mortar... or three on the map within range of your area of operation. Place the module Support Requester and sync it to the player. Place an Artillery Support Provider module and sync it to all mortars. Sync the modules together. Player sync to Support Requester. Support Requester sync to Support Provider. Support Provider sync to all three Mortars. In game, you can go to map and hover the mouse over the target location. Select 0,8,1 (that's the first mortar) then pick the ammo (HE, SMOKE, LUME) Once you start the request you can't relocate the mouse so make sure you have the cursor where you want it. (you can BACKSPACE, BACKSPACE... to cancel and start again if the cursor is off target.) Alternatively, if you are looking down range with Binoculars, scopes, etc... you can call support 0,8,1 from there without going in map. :)

Hey buddy, gonna need your help. I do EXACTLY what you do, and my AI NEVER lands on the first try - they always fly over the airfield at top speed, then turn around and finally land. I tried watching their approaches and lining them up with move markers, but it does nothing. They don't ever land the first time around, and they don't even taxi properly (go over grass, etc). I have no idea if it's something "I" am doing wrong, or if there were changes, but it's driving me MAD because I just want to make a mission that involves some planes landing and taking off :)

@Viper1Zero

2 жыл бұрын

How many waypoints are you placing? The AI will follow every waypoint until they hit the “land” one. So if you have a waypoint that makes them cross the runway, they’ll cross before moving onto the landing phase. Also you need to know what direction they land at and take off from. If your last waypoint is on the opposite side from where they want to land, then they’ll cross the runway to get into their landing pattern.

@SSPGaming

2 жыл бұрын

@@Viper1Zero yeah I used some common sense and tried to observe their landing and taxi patterns and then I tried to place my waypoints to help them line up with the way that they were landing. What's really odd is that when I did that, they basically changed their landing direction to the opposite end of the runway which I thought was really strange. I tried twice, once just the way that I described it above and the other time the way that you did it in this video, exactly the same way. I could not get them to cleanly taxi either, so I basically had to start them on the runway which is not really a big deal. My problem though is having them land at another airport without having to do a go-around first, which I could never figure out. Not sure if you're free but I've joined your Discord and I wouldn't mind showing you sometime tonight, if you had some time :-) I'm dying to figure this out because I really love creating missions and I want to make a very exciting one with some really nice flyovers :-) plus I'd be able to pass this information along to some of the members in my own community who also enjoy playing arma. Thanks very much for the help by the way :-)

Make the drivers all be in the same group, change formation to file or column, put "this forceFollowRoad true". This'll make the drivers stay on the road at all times. Also change the behavior to safe or something

Somehow if I place an airplane on taxiway for example on Altis it just won't take off, it will roam around the whole airfield without doinì anything or in some cases it will start to "stutter" moving , kinda like if it takes 1 step and then stop, 1 step and then stop and so on :( The only way for me for makin' AI takin' off is to place the airplane right on the runway and sometimes it's buggy anyway :(

You can't have anything in the way of the plane, not even objects. The AI will stop because it "detects" an entity nearby. Thats why it does the stop/start/stop/start. Some modded aircraft are wonky finding their way on a taxiway too.

I would create a task for the item pick up, and use a couple Show/Hide modules and sync them to the reinforcements (or put the reinforcements under a layer and name it on the entities list, call the layer “Reinforcements” or something). Set the first Show/Hide to “Hide” the Reinforcement layer, and then the second one to “Show” the layer and sync the show module to the trigger of the “pick up item” task. That should work.
