159th_Falcon Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Ok, i am making a mission and tested part of it last night. I had 3 columns, each in cone formation, and the following units in each column. Shilka SA9 Nona SA13 10m3 Transport Ural 375 CP Ural 375 PBU The idea behind the Transport was that the units would not run out of ammo. A squad member attacked these units in an A10, and after the 2nd pass the SA9's and SA13's stopped firing missiles, apparently they ran out of ammo. I checked and 2 of the 3 transports where still alive. What have i done wrong? Is it even possible for AI units to reload using support vehicles? Or have i used the wrong vehicle? If i used the correct vehicles, how long would reloading take and whitin what distance should the support truck be?

Case Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 What have i done wrong? Is it even possible for AI units to reload using support vehicles? Or have i used the wrong vehicle? If i used the correct vehicles, how long would reloading take and whitin what distance should the support truck be?As far as I recall only an Osa Launcher (SA-8) will reload faster if there is an Osa Loader nearby. I think it then has 12 missiles instead of 6. I do not know if this works for other units. Remember though that each unit has its own reloading time. Some reload quicker than others. Generally though, I find it hard to believe that a Shilka will run out of ammo. There are only 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't.
159th_Falcon Posted June 1, 2010 Author Posted June 1, 2010 Correct Case, only the Strela's ran out of ammo, the shilka's kept firing happily. So basically it doesn't matter if i include the transport's in the convoy? Anyone else has experience whit this?

Yup, even though i am referring to "convoy's" they are infact stationary. I had an chat whit Panzertard the other day and he believed it works but reloading times are fairly long. For an Strela for example he believed it was somewhere between 10-20 minutes. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] The keeper of all mathematical knowledge and the oracle of flight modeling.:)
