MasterZelgadis Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Now we got these nifty ammo crates the helicopters can haul around. It woud be super nice, if ground forces would accept these as a source for rearming. Is it maybe possible via scripting to give the ammo crate this ability? Should be an option or something on the trucks that tell the engine, that ground forces can rearm, if a truck is near. Maybe you can give an ammo crate this option via LUA?

BaD CrC Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 If you can do that, it means we can rearm/refuel anywhere on the map instead of being next to airports or FARP. And so far, no one has ever succeeded in doing that. The first who can find a way would be remembered forever in the DCS community, mostly by choppers pilots! https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterZelgadis Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Hm, thought so.. had a little hope it would be possible. That was my intention, too, would give heli pilots a nice job in every combined arms mission, to ensure that the tanks are always supplied with enough ammunition. The mission I am currently working on features some heavy combined arms use and of course huey/mi-8 slots, but there is much less to do for the heli pilots than for the combined arms player or the CAS flights.. Current jobs are: - MEDEVAC in case a tank group took too much damage - Fly infantry to two towns, to clear the path for a convoy - Some stuff with the CTLD script, fly in new vehicle crates Transport ammo crates to the tanks would fit perfectly in there "Sieh nur, wie majestätisch du durch die Luft segelst.

feefifofum Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Using CTLD, you -can- rearm the tanks by taking an M818 out to them. :) Not quite what you were looking for but I did personally reload a dynamically spawned Paladin from a dynamically spawned M818 on multiple occasions in a recent op so I can verify it works.

MasterZelgadis Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 That's the way I do it now. More exactly I have a group of M818 the Tactical Commander can drive to the group that needs rearming, and in case the M818 get destroyed, the heli pilots can fly in new ones via CTLD.
