Flagrum Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) Following the other thread about effictiviness of unguided rockets, I startet to play around with these. But now I came to an "issue" ... or more a question about the rippling speed. The A-10C fires rockets in relatively slow sequence, like every .25 secs or so. Therefore aiming errors have quite a big effect in regards of the spread of the salvo on the ground. Even if I ripple pairs, the rate of fire is the same - only the amount or rockets is different (per second). Like, RPL SGL=4/sec. (left, right, left, right) and RPL PRS=8/sec. (left+right, left+right, left+right, left+right). But that's about it. (firing rockes with the Huey seem to be similar, although I havent exactly tested it/paid attention to it, yet) Now, if I fly the A-10A, it's like a rocket hailstorm. I was unable to count them, but I estimate, I get about 15-20 off in one second. Well, the A-10A uses different rocket pods, that could be one reason? But my actual question is, can I increase the ripple speed in the A-10C? I was hoping I could fiddle a bit with the DSMS INV settings, like "Weapon Eject Velocity" or "Bomb Rack Delay", as it is documented in the manual (p. 528 ), but no joy, these parameters seem to be gone. (Oh, and as you are already here and reading this, perhaps you can help me with my flare dispenser issue, too? :o) http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=116197 ) Edited October 30, 2013 by Flagrum
Flagrum Posted November 6, 2013 Author Posted November 6, 2013 Yeah, I see ... I am the only one who actually bothered to use rockets :o)

I'm not sure what you mean by "these parameters seem to be gone". None of the parameters on page 528 can adjust the rate of fire.

"Gone" as in for rockets they are shown on the screen shots in the manual , but they are not in game. I was just trying to fiddle around with whatever I could to change the rof and those parameters in the manual were all I had. And, yes, as the manual is quite brief on these parameters - even where they actually can be applied (iirc only bombs?) - I have no real clue of what these parameter are actually used for. Can you help me out with that? :o)
