LORDPrometheus Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 i'll try that, thankson body lift, is there a way to reduce it without remaking the model or some fancy unity or config tinkering?go to the cfg near the bottom is a line Lifting area just reduce it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colmo Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 (edited) A small request to Baha - as there is a test to determine damage (75% mass loss and AI stops attacking), could the same test be used toA) create an action group trigger? trigger the Abort action group?The purpose is to bind the action group trigger to Abort, so the pilot can bail out, deploy pod chutes or whatever. If Vanguard mod has a trigger of it's own, A isn't needed, just bind it to Abort. Edited September 11, 2015 by colmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messernacht Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Wondering if it's possible to give the HE-KV a bit more of a blast area. I appreciate being able to Kessler the hell out of certain orbits, but it would be good if the explosion was wider to take out more of the target. Sort of like how the old Romfarer missiles had a blast area.Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StahnAileron Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Holy crap this mod has advanced since I last touched it (ironically, I stopped playing KSP shortly after 1.0 was released). School, the massive changes from 0.90, the patches, and mods getting up to speed turned me off from playing until recently (break from school and mods stabilizing.)I just watched the new vid showcasing the lock and radar systems. To be honest, the thing that impressed me most was the camera view on the Target Designator. Anyone know if it would be possible to integrate that feature into something like HullCam VDS? BDArmory did exactly what I was hoping HullCam VDS would. HullCam is nice, but sometimes the fullscreen view isn't what I want/need. (Integrating the BD camera view in Docking Port Alignment Indicator would be sweet as well. Overlay DPAI's indicators on top of the BD camera view on a docking port.)

Forty21112 Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 (edited) Hey, BD, I was thinking today maybe you can simulate ammunition cook off by having ammo containers explode when they reach max temps.Edit: I figured, in my excitement, I forgot to detail how it could possibly work.Ammo containers will explode when hit with a bullet and when they reach their max temps, they will explode, simulating ammunition cook off.The reason it using temps and not crash tolerance is to prevent tanks with their ammo in the front so they just have to ram.You can go further by introducing making the explosion vary in strength and size the more ammo still left in the boxes.A notch higher, you can make the explosion vary by caliber, meaning 300 12.7mms wont explode as violently as the same amount of 30mms.It would help if it was determined by how many resources are left rather than a cfg file you can't change on the fly.It also give a reason to cover ammo boxes.But the final verdict is on you, so its your choice. Just a suggestion. Edited September 11, 2015 by Forty21112 Elaboration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might come in a gunpod version in the future. After that i will probably make the Mk45 5 inch or some turreted 30mm autocannon for those of you who dont just want an M230 on top of an IFV.

Temeter Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 The radar system looks amazing, I like it! Just a small suggestion: Would you consider adding a hotkey to cycle through radar contacts? Switching targets has always been too slow for fast air combat, and the radar seems to be a very good tool to solve the issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temeter Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 i think you should try using boresight with radar. i think it auto locks whatever is in itI know, but that's still a slight bit off from being perfekt, since you need to aim with your planes nose.

I find ground strike with guns super hard in KSP. Simply because getting the plane on target and holding it there is really hard. especially with the aerodynamics wobbling it around and SAS trying to stabilize after manuvering. Its probably easier in real life lol. Maybe I should try configuring my joystick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should try configuring my joystickReal live is all about using cheats and software and stuff anyway. :>I found using unguided anti-ground bombs is a lot easier, since you can just let the aiming circle sweep over the target and fire at the correct moment. Getting a semi-targeted sweep with the 30mm gattling is also rather rewarding, tho. Edited September 11, 2015 by Temeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoundrel Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 (edited) from the hellfireMissile.cfg file:blastRadius = 25 //metersblastPower = 16Wow. If it was the frag warheads used in drone strikes it would be something likeblastRadius = 15blastPower = 9for HEAT warhead it would be more accurate to putblastRadius = 6blastPower = 15I really need to go through the configs.True. I find ground strike with guns super hard in KSP. Simply because getting the plane on target and holding it there is really hard. especially with the aerodynamics wobbling it around and SAS trying to stabilize after manuvering. Its probably easier in real life lol.IRL is much harder, because there's more factors to consider: wind, atmospheric conditions, sensor inaccuracies, etc. The correct way to strafe is to start before the target and follow through past the target. That way you can adjust fire using slight rudder inputs or nosing up or down. Also if you angle your 30mm downwards by about 5° you'll find you don't have to nose down quite as much.

Kowalskicore Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 for HEAT warhead it would be more accurate to putblastRadius = 6blastPower = 15HEAT warheads should have a blast radius of 1 as they do not actually detonate but launch a stream of molten metal into the target.an idea would be having 'warhead switching' in the SPH/VAB so you can use an appropriate warhead.

It would have a blastPower of 6ish for that, but BDA doesn't do discrete blast effects so I'm not sure how that would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
