Q2 E.D.: Exhaust.lua > nozzle_coefficient - Only 4 visual ?

[HungaroJET]

If i make changes on these nozzle coefficient values and i am increasing(?) the exhaust rate, then will it changing the behavior of IR SAMs on helicopters (will it simulating increased heat signature of choppers and will leading easier lock on) or not ?

 

If yes: Is it same in SP and in MP modes ?

 

Or is it changing/increasing the heat blur VISUAL effect ONLY ?

exhaust_data = {

[KA_50] =

{

nozzle = {{pos = {-0.388,0.594, 1.399},orientation = {0.5,0.5,-1}},

{pos = {-0.388,0.594,-1.399},orientation = {0.5,0.5, 1}}},

nozzle_coefficient = 0.3

},

When I was in the Army I was a stinger missile gunner http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIM-92_Stinger and we were always told that a helo was more difficult to obtain lock due to heat dissipation from the rotor wash. Not sure if that helps or if it is modelled in game but that is the real life info about IR lock on helos. At least for the stinger missile anyway :)

no, simulation of targeting IR SAMs has nothing to do with graphics effects on nozzles.

...and R there any way to adding some heat blur for the present A-10 and Su-25 engines in DCS ?

 

Possibilities ?
