JTAC Auto Target and Lase

[feefifofum]

Hi Frosties, the JTACs included in the CTLD script should give you both formats.

You can find it here:

Yes it works but make sure to up the maximum laser range and also use CTLD which incorporates this script plus bug fixes etc. Link is post above :)

Trying this out on the 104th server, so far we have got the Reaper to designate targets with the laser and IR pointer. It works perfectly well in single player but as a client in 1.5.8.12667 (Release) the Laser doesn't work.

 

The IR Sparkle comes on but you cannot find the laser in LST (Harrier) and weapons will not lock it when dropped on the correct set code of 1688.

 

Can anyone else get this to work as a client online?

Strange I can use it in multi without problems. Just cant priorize vehicles or infantry.

[104th_Maverick]

Do you mind attaching your mission for me to have a quick look at Zarma?

 

Edit: And also can you confirm that you are doing this with the Harrier as a client?

nice. Still havent been able to select vehicle or infantry, but not really an issue as I want it to lase all targets. Would be fun to have vehicles lased first, then infantry.

The CLTD script has an option to add the tag hpriority (high priority) or just priority (regular priority) to the unit names. JTAC will laze hpriority first, then priority targets. You can name the vehicles with one of the previous tags and it will do those ones first.

Yea but the trouble is, I use a script to spawn random groups of vehicles and infantry.

Please post in the CTLD thread as this old version is no longer supported. :)

Have the script name air defences ”hpriority whatever” and armor ”priority whatever”.

 

You can also make further priority levels (hpriority1, hpriority2 and so on) to further enhance the priority levels of different units.

I tried adding two JTACs and a SA-3 where Low Blow radar is 'hpriority' and the other units in SA-3 group are just regular units. Then there are couple of 'priority' units. For some reason JTACs started to lase SA-3 regular (launchers etc.) units before 'priority' units after 'hprioriry' unit is destroyed.

I got tired of JTAC not prioritizing targets correctly (BMP before SAM etc.) so I wrote a workaround @ https://github.com/chump29/DCS_Mod/blob/master/JTAC_Priority.lua

Suggestions/complaints welcome.
