Description
RKSL Studios: Rapier FSC SAM System

THIS IS A BETA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm releasing this to get feed back from the community.

YOU need to understand this:

1) This is an unfinished addon. I will finish it but right now I want to see what people think about its performance and balance.
2) It only has one LoD. So you can expect some FPS issue when viewed from distance (possibly)
3) The Damage textures don’t work - I've not fixed the sections. Just not had time.
4) Its a static object designed for use by AI or by players using a UAV terminal.
5) It requires the new RKSL Common addon to work.

The System comprises of 3 different units.
1) The DAGGER Search Radar. This has a 16Km 360 degree omnidirectional detection area.
2) The BLINDFIRE Fire Control Radar. This has a 10Km x 60 degree directional detection radar cone as well as Optical IR tracking. Its mounted on a turret system.
3) The Rapier Field Standard C (FSC) Launcher. This has an 8km x 60 degree directional detection radar cone as well as Optical IR tracking. Its mounted on a turret system which carries 8x Rapier 2000 missiles.

And an ammo pack with enough points to reload 9 missiles.

The missiles themselves are designed to be "hit-iles". ie they will impact on the plane. While they are setup with a proximity fuse in game. It rarely seems to need it. The missiles can also be manually guided. Which makes them very accurate and evil.
You only need to place the units in the editor. No need to link them or do anything special. Under AI control they will automatically data-link target information.

Classnames:
RKSLA3_Static_Rapier_FSC_Dagger
RKSLA3_Static_Rapier_FSC_Blindfire
RKSLA3_Static_Rapier_FSC_Launcher
RKSLA3_Rapier_ammo_pack

@RLSL-Rock looks fantastic man!! any plan to make this a vehicle instead of a static weapon so it can be towed? I guess it would need some transformer stuff to transfer from wheels to stilts but if its possible and you've got the tim, would be pretty cool :) good luck

I've not had time to get the full changes in but ive been asked to add sling loading in.

New build with all the fixes will be a couple of weeks time permitting.

@RKSL Thanks for the answer looking forward to the upgrade.
RKSL-Rock  [author] 16 May, 2021 @ 2:10am 
@Play3r. Its part of the new upgrade. I'm trying to get it out asap but having some PC issues.

@bigant2 Its not easy to do. Its not supported in the core game engine at this time without significant scripting. And even then it most likely would be limited to only specific weapons. So im not sure its really worth the effort right now.

But i ave discussed the idea with several other people and we think we might have a way to do it. It just won't be anytime soon. We are all pretty busy in real life.

@RKSL

Any chance you can get a destroyed texture to your mod, that would be nice touch to when the Rapier get destroyed you can see it and just not only have a fire burn.

Really nice mod very happy with it. a vital addition to my FOB would be possible to get it to be able to target other missiles iron dome style. would be pretty epic to be briefing the lads then the alarm goes off and there is a mad dash to get into cover as interceptors get launched and manage to stop the scud before it lands on the base starting a quick mission to go and find the launchers.

Sadly a necessary reaction to selfish people that like to take credit for the work of others. And attempt to abuse the goodwill of others. If you do not want to accept that reality, don't use our stuff. Its simple really. ;)
