chromium Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 I may help to start thinking on it, cause I can't exactly provide the solution you asked for: You could try to track the y position of the helicopter, and then subtract the terrain altitude using the land.getHeight function. i.e. local pos = Unit.getByName('Pilot 1'):getPosition().p local HeliPos = { x = pos.point.x, y = pos.point.z, z = pos.point.y } local TerrainPos = land.getHeight({x = HeliPos.x, y = HeliPos.z}) AltitudeFromTerrain = HeliPos.y - TerrainPos You will get the result in meters. But I may assume that this way will give you the radar altitude on the terrain, but I don't think it will take into account the presence of buildings or anything else. Another way is to track the radar altimeter readings (I don't remember now how it is done... I may take a look if you want), but I think that it should be limited at the same limit of the radar altimeter: since that you fly Kamov if I remember correctly, that would limit the reading to 300 mt.

An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.
spinter Posted May 21, 2014 Author Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) the problem and that the buildings are not detected! Edited May 21, 2014 by spinter ====VIAF==== Spinter 155° "Pantere Nere" TsSimComms My Site aiupgrade.net
chromium Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 che è quello che ti ho scritto sopra ;) L'altro metodo che conosco è quello di tracciare le letture degli strumenti, cosa che però comporta due problemi: 1- devi essere nel velivolo. non mi risulta funzioni per i velivoli IA. 2- le letture sono soggette alle limitazioni dello strumento, in termini di risoluzione ed estremi (es. Ka-50 max 300 mt) Author of DSMC, mod to enable scenario persistency and save updated miz file Stable version & site: https://dsmcfordcs.wordpress.com/ Openbeta: https://github.com/Chromium18/DSMC The thing is, helicopters are different from planes.
