Issue in weight calculation

[tueur-a-gage]

Hello

 

I think that I found a bug in the weight calculation of the load at least for the A-10C concerning the BRU-42LS support and all payload attached with.

 

For example:

- GBU-12 alone: 275 kg

- BRU-42LS alone: 65 kg

- BRU-42LS + 3 x GBU-12: 876 kg => it should be 891 kg (275*3 + 65)

 

For me, the issue could come at least from the file <Game_folder>\Scripts\Database\db_weapons_data.lua :

 

- function bru_42_hs_gbu_12, the calculation of the weight is Weight = 51 + count*275

But the weight of the BRU is 65 kg, not 51

 

- line 2797, you write: Weight = 51+275*3,--1230,

same remark, it should be 65+275x3

 

- line 698, you write: Weight = 51 + count*275,

same remark, it should be 65 + count*275

 

maybe others...

 

For the Maverick & LAU-88/LAU-117, you don't have the issue because you manage local variables:

maverick_data =

{

["AGM-65K"] = {mass = 360, wstype = {4, 4, 8, 61}},

...

["CATM-65K"] = {mass = 360, wstype = {4, 4, 101,142}},

}

local LAU_88_mass = 211

local LAU_117_mass = 59

 

For Rockets, the bugs is more important :

- LAU-131/68 alone: 100 kg

- BRU-42LS + 3 x LAU-131/68: 702 kg => it should be 365 kg (3 x 100 + 65), more than double !

 

Here the issue seems to come because you have directly indicate the weight without calculation,

for example line 5696, you write: Weight = 702, => it should be 365

same for all description of LAU-68 & LAU-133 with 3 rocket pods attached using BRU-42LS.

one more time, maybe another issue elsewhere...

 

Best regards
