Type-19"Spike" Missile System (Radar Vehicle)

Description
The system is now under active development by the "Southern Industries", which is a newly founded Storm Works fan group consists of undergraduate students studying around the globe.

Planned works on Type-19 Missile System:
1. A sudden update in Stormworks have changed radio systems dramatically. We will restore radio communication between the Radar Vehicle, the SAM Carrier, and the missiles.
2. Make YouTube tutorials on how to operate the system.
3. Introduce a better calculation that allows the Radar Vehicle track fast moving air targets.
4. Introduce a Missile video feedback and Missile status feedback.
5. Introduce a better calculation that allows GPS guided missiles strike more precisely.

Introducing Type-19“Spike” Missile System


Ooops!

The system combines all the existing ways to guide a homing missile, including: GPS guided surface-to-surface missile, Radar guided surface-to-air missile, Laser guided short range surface-to-surface missile. Moreover, the operator is able to make small terminal adjustments using TV guidance override.

The system is highly configurable with one Radar Vehicle and up to nine Launch Vehicles. It's all up to the players' decision on what type and how many missiles they would like to deploy. I'm confident that Type-19"Spike" will bring a lot of fun to multiplayer games!

*Features of the Radar Vehicle*
1. Full auto clutch and gearbox.
- Driving this vehicle in Storm Works is the same as driving tanks in mainstream TPS war games.
2. Folding radar & stands.
- The vehicle has detailed movable parts that resembles a real-life military radar truck.
3. Advanced interface.
- The vehicle is equipped with a lot of monitors and touchscreens to replace traditional dials and buttons.

*How to play*
(Every button and instrument panel on this vehicle is labelled by its function)
*Driver*
1. Go through driver's hatch and take the seat.
2. Start the engine using the key button in front of you.
3. Turn on monitors by pushing the button on the instrument panel to your right.
4. The button to your right expands/folds the vehicle and engages/disengages brakes.
*Operator*
1. Go through radar operator's hatch and take the seat.
2. Turn on monitors by pushing the button on the instrument panel to your right.
3. The large screen in front of you shows:

-GPS screen, map, and target coordinates.
The picture below shows the GPS screen on this vehicle.
IT IS A TOUCH SCREEN!
You can adjust (trim) the coordinates of the designated target by touching the four triangles at the edge.
The red rectangle labelled "R" (Reset) at the top left corner will reset trim values to 0, 0.

The picture below shows that the designated target is out of the effective range.
You can see that the cross lines turns from green to grey.
If you try to fire missile, a warning will prompt on the screen.


-Radar screen, radar status, and important target parameters.


-Laser screen, laser camera.

4. The button to your right expands/folds the radar.
5. The small screen to your right shows the current guidance mode, contact frequency, and missile ID.
6. The instrument panel to your right shows guidance mode and has switch buttons on it.
7. The instrument panel in front of you shows selected missile launcher ID and has switch buttons on it.
8. The keyboard to your left sets up target coordinates for GPS guided missiles.
9. The instrument panel to your left shows guidance precision and has switch buttons on it.

*Update v0.1*
Original Radar Vehicle released.
*Update v0.1.1*
Fixed the error in radar rotation Lua script.
*Update v0.2*
The Radar Screen was introduced.
More electric generators were fitted in the vehicle.
*Update v0.3*
Work on the Radar Screen was finished.
Now you are able to read important parameters and radar status directly from the screen :).
*Update v0.4*
Work on the GPS Screen and Laser Screen were finished.
Now the monitor shows corresponding guidance parameters :).
*Update v0.4.1*
Fixed a known problem with Laser Guidance, thank you player StormGaming!
*Update v0.5*

*Update v0.6*
Missile Video Feedback is now available.
*Update v0.7*
Fixed engine overheating problems after the recent major update.
Add "Southern Industries" logo to the vehicle.
*Update v0.8*
Configure the Radar Vehicle so that it is ready to guide GPS guided Surface-to-Surface missiles!
Introduced Touch Screen on Radar Operator's main screen.
Add buzzer to the Radar Vehicle.
*Update v0.9*

@AgentShot, Unfortunately it is broken at the moment. Someone else made a better and up-to-date SAM system recently, go check it out!

Does this still work?

can you please upload the microcontrollers needed for the radar and for it to lock on and send the data to the sam and cm missile carriers, can you also upload the microcontroller for those too. i want to use them in making a submarine that can carry ballistics missiles, and you are on of the first that i see that have a good program
Ocelot 26 Oct, 2020 @ 2:11pm 
Ahhh, thanks.

Hi, Guidance mode 1 (GPS) is supposed to use with CM carrier. For SAM carrier, switch to mode 2 (Radar). And this creation is over one year old, there are some problems with it. I'm working on a completely new project. Stay tuned!

I'm using this with the SAM carrier but the CM carrier works.
Ocelot 20 Oct, 2020 @ 2:25am 
It keeps saying: "Out of effective range"
Mizutani  [author] 14 Oct, 2020 @ 7:07pm 
Many Thanks!

i figured it out, it will eventually stop tracking the SAM but you should definatly make it shoot down moving targets, I was able to track moving targets with the radar but the sam failed to track. Other than that keep it up these things are fun as hell and very well done.
