Raven68 Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I noticed that in one of the SP missions for CA that there are UAV's circling about. Is there any way to use them? One mission in particular there are 2 circling and seems to be only for recon. Can JTAC access them?:helpsmilie: Intel i5-9600K @ 3.7GHz; Gigabyte Z370XP SLI Mobo; G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 64GB (4 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4080 16GB 256-Bit GDDR6; Thermaltake Water 3.0 Certified Liquid Cooling System Windows 11 Professional HP Reverb G2 /TrackIR 5 in case VR dies; Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog w/ Thrustmaster T-Flight Rudder Pedals
joey45 Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 unfortantaly the UAVs can not be used by humans. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

ED Team Wags Posted July 23, 2012 ED Team Posted July 23, 2012 Correct. In a later version of CA, I hope we can add view from selected UAV through a sensor pod view. Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/wagmatt Twitch: wagmatt System: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3729544#post3729544

ED Team NineLine Posted July 23, 2012 ED Team Posted July 23, 2012 Correct. In a later version of CA, I hope we can add view from selected UAV through a sensor pod view. Any chance we could get a sort of CA Road Map of things you would like to add/correct etc? Sort of so we can see the direction ED plans on taking it? Doesnt have to complete but just some idea of features and such you hope to add.... Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug**

BRooDJeRo Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Tbh, i'd like to see some upcomming features listed too on what we might expect. Theres no harm in just telling someone what you're up to when you have a community dangling on your belt.
PlainSight Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 one A10 circling at +30000ft, transmitting SPIs to others and occasionally dropping an LGB, can be considered as an UCAV. With external tanks and full fuel load, you can go for hours and it looks quite the same as real CIA ops. Much more useful and fun than ai uav. [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Sort of so we can see the direction ED plans on taking it? Doesnt have to complete but just some idea of features and such you hope to add.... Not possible I'm afraid. If something is mentioned, but doesn't happen for whatever reason, the forum will be on fire and the servers full of pitchforks. Past experience has proven that silence is the better option.

I know what to expect with this version. Correct. In a later version of CA, I hope we can add view from selected UAV through a sensor pod view. I appreciate the followup Matt.

Purg Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 I've set up a Predator as an AFAC, works really well but as you've been advised, their path isn't controllable by a human but runs on the pre-determined waypoints designated by the mission designer. Love to be able to have a UAV view though - and hopefully control it.
Apocalypse31 Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 unfortantaly the UAVs can not be used by humans. Only Skynet can use them? 1 TankSim Discord
Pyroflash Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Only Skynet can use them? I didn't know the mission editor was self aware. The product pamphlet said that it was powerful, but I had no idea.:lol: If you aim for the sky, you will never hit the ground.
Dejjvid Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 P one A10 circling at +30000ft, transmitting SPIs to others and occasionally dropping an LGB, can be considered as an UCAV. With external tanks and full fuel load, you can go for hours and it looks quite the same as real CIA ops. Much more useful and fun than ai uav. The A-10 never carry ext. tanks in combat. Only for ferry missions. You can loiter for hours at angels 30 anyways. i7 8700K | GTX 1080 Ti | 32GB RAM | 500GB M.2 SSD | TIR5 w/ Trackclip Pro | TM Hotas Warthog | Saitek Pro Flight Rudder [sigpic]http://www.132virtualwing.org[/sigpic]
