GMT Auto-Generated Road Traffic Detection


Lace

Recommended Posts

Loving the increased capabilities the new GMT mode brings to the Viper.  However I am curious about one thing - how does the GMT mode know the difference between military and civilian traffic? 😉

Are there any plans to have civvy road traffic to be detected too? Therefore adding realistic ground clutter, and making enemy units less obvious? 

I'm sure this is more of a DCS core issue, rather than a Viper specific one, but it is relevant to how the Viper is fought with the GMT mode.

I really hope this gets added soon. It’s all kind of black magic atm and not really realistic at all

It doesn't. Place some civilian vehicles on the map and give them waypoints, so they start moving. You will see, that it detects them just fine. 😉

What you actually meant is, how it knows the difference between scenery traffic and actual ground units and the answer is: It just doesn't know about the scenery traffic as it's not the same as actual units within the game engine.

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!

I should have thought that it was obvious that my post was referring to the scenery civvy traffic, but thanks for killing those kittens.

Looks like this will be a thing on the F-15E.  Any possibility it might be reconsidered for the Viper?
