GGTharos Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Like the option for aircraft, SAMs should have an option to use radar continuous, for search if necessary, for attack only or not at all. Bonus points if you add an 'search interval' which would search for a configurable amount of time every certain amount of time (both should be able to take an expression which evaluates to an integer). 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
Northstar98 Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) + absolutely 1 Would also be great for ships, at the moment AFAIK don't have emissions control, so to simulate EMCON you either have to turn their AI off completely (which will cause them to stop everything) or force them into green state.

Apok Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 Radar attack only option - use radar only for/while attacking if EWR detects anything in SAM search or engagement zone. Basicaly if fog of war doesnt hide plane and its in SAM zone. This would simulate integrated AD enviroment. 1
Harker Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 +1000Would be so nice to have this, it'd save a lot time currently spent on setting up triggers. 1 The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs.

Wdigman Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 That would be a nice way for SAMS to hide in the weeds till needed. 1
QuiGon Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 +1!!! I was just building a night interdiction mission last week and wanted to tell the SHORADs to use their own radar continiously for search, but then noticed that there is no such option for SAMs... 1 Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!
norman99 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) Use the Skynet IADS script. If located within the coverage of EW radars, SAM search and tracking radars will remain off until within kill range. They’ll also switch off if they detect a HARM inbound. Edited March 16, 2021 by norman99
GGTharos Posted March 16, 2021 Author Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) Not good enough. If anything, this would enhance that script. Edited March 16, 2021 by GGTharos 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
