Possible to Script IR Pointer or Laser Designation?

[Habu23]

Hello all,

 

I am building a mission where I would like to have a Predator drone manually designate a target with either a laser or IR pointer. I do not wish to go through the normal FAC Engage Group and JTAC procedures in the editor, instead I want to do it manually for a specific need in my mission.

 

Ideally I would like the laser or IR Pointer to spawn from a unit directly to another, separate unit on the ground.

 

Is this possible through .lua scripts or a function in the editor or am I out of luck?

 

Thank you for your help.
