The script has lots of configuration options that can be used to futher customise the behaviour.

####JTAC Automatic Targeting and Laser
|
||||
This script has been merged with https://github.com/ciribob/DCS-JTACAutoLaze . JTACs can either be deployed by Helicopters and configured with the options in the script or pre added to the mission. By default each side can drop 5 JTACs.
|
||||
|
||||
The JTAC Script configuration is shown below and can easily be disabled using the ```ctld.JTAC_dropEnabled``` option.
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
-- ***************** JTAC CONFIGURATION *****************
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_LIMIT_RED = 5 -- max number of JTAC Crates for the RED Side
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_LIMIT_BLUE = 5 -- max number of JTAC Crates for the BLUE Side
|
||||
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_dropEnabled = true -- allow JTAC Crate spawn from F10 menu
|
||||
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_maxDistance = 4000 -- How far a JTAC can "see" in meters (with Line of Sight)
|
||||
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_smokeOn_RED = true -- enables marking of target with smoke for RED forces
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_smokeOn_BLUE = true -- enables marking of target with smoke for BLUE forces
|
||||
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_smokeColour_RED = 4 -- RED side smoke colour -- Green = 0 , Red = 1, White = 2, Orange = 3, Blue = 4
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_smokeColour_BLUE = 1 -- BLUE side smoke colour -- Green = 0 , Red = 1, White = 2, Orange = 3, Blue = 4
|
||||
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_jtacStatusF10 = false -- enables F10 JTAC Status menu
|
||||
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_location = false -- shows location of target in JTAC message
|
||||
|
||||
ctld.JTAC_lock = "all" -- "vehicle" OR "troop" OR "all" forces JTAC to only lock vehicles or troops or all ground units
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The script allows a JTAC to mark and hold an IR and Laser point on a target allowing TGP's to lock onto the lase and ease of target location using NV Goggles.
|
||||
|
||||
The JTAC will automatically switch targets when a target is destroyed or goes out of Line of Sight.
|
||||
|
||||
The JTACs can be configured globally to target only vehicles or troops or all ground targets.
|
||||
|
||||
***NOTE: LOS doesn't include buildings or tree's... Sorry! ***
|
||||
|
||||
The script can also be useful in daylight by enabling the JTAC to mark enemy positions with Smoke. The JTAC will only move the smoke to the target every 5 minutes (to stop a huge trail of smoke markers) unless the target is destroyed, in which case the new target will be marked straight away with smoke. There is also an F10 menu option for units allowing the JTAC(s) to report their current status but if a JTAC is down it won't report in.
|
||||
|
||||
To add JTACS to the mission using the editor place a JTAC unit on the map putting each JTAC in it's own group containing only itself and no
|
||||
other units. Name the group something easy to remember e.g. JTAC1 and make sure the JTAC units have a unique name which must
|
||||
not be the same as the group name. The editor should do this for you but be careful if you copy and paste.
|
||||
|
||||
Run the code below as a DO SCRIPT at the start of the mission, or after a delay if you prefer to activate a mission JTAC.
|
||||
|
||||
**JTAC HMMWV units deployed by unpacking a crate will automatically activate and begin searching for targets immediately.**
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
ctld.JTACAutoLase('JTAC1', 1688)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Where JTAC1 is the Group name of the JTAC Group with one and only one JTAC unit and the 1688 is the Laser code.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also override global settings set in the script like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
ctld.JTACAutoLase('JTAC1', 1688, false,"all")
|
||||
```
|
||||
This means no smoke marks for this JTAC and it will target all ground troops
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
ctld.JTACAutoLase('JTAC1', 1688, true,"vehicle")
|
||||
```
|
||||
This smoke marks for this JTAC and it will target ONLY ground vehicles
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
ctld.JTACAutoLase('JTAC1', 1688, true,"troop")
|
||||
```
|
||||
This means smoke marks are enabled for this JTAC and it will target ONLY ground troops
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
ctld.JTACAutoLase('JTAC1', 1688, true,"troop",1)
|
||||
```
|
||||
This means smoke marks are enabled for this JTAC and it will target ONLY ground troops AND smoke colour will be Red
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
ctld.JTACAutoLase('JTAC1', 1688, true,"troop",0)
|
||||
```
|
||||
This means smoke marks are enabled for this JTAC and it will target ONLY ground troops AND smoke colour will be Green
|
||||
|
||||
```lua
|
||||
ctld.JTACAutoLase('JTAC1', 1688, true,"all", 4)
|
||||
```
|
||||
This means no smoke marks for this JTAC and it will target all ground troops AND mark with Blue smoke
|
||||
|
||||
Smoke colours are: Green = 0 , Red = 1, White = 2, Orange = 3, Blue = 4
|
||||
|
||||
The script doesn't care if the unit isn't activated when run, as it'll automatically activate when the JTAC is activated in
|
||||
the mission but there can be a delay of up to 30 seconds after activation for the JTAC to start searching for targets.
|
||||
|
||||
###Pickup and Dropoff Zones Setup
|
||||
Pickup zones are used by transport aircraft and helicopters to load troops and vehicles. A transport unit must be inside of the radius of the trigger in order to load troops and vehicles.
