Visible Laser Marker for Aircraft

Description
Adds the option to toggle on an "overt" visible laser marker from aircraft. Should work on all planes, helicopters and UAVs.


The visible laser marker will only enable if the turret has an IR laser and it is active. Deactivating the IR laser will deactivate the visible laser marker as well. At the moment, this is the only way to turn the visible marker off.
Using the "Enable visible laser" action in the scroll menu multiple times will increase it's brightness.


Take a look at my workshop page for many more Arma 3 mods!

Any chance of making this compat with multiplayer?

@Wenza Hi, great mod and thank you for sharing it.

Is there any way you could make a variant that is ONLY visible in the IR spectrum ? Meaning it would be invisible to the naked eye , but it can be seen in the infrared spectrum only.

Thank you in advance for any consideration..

I don't get options on the scroll wheel. Do you need an SBA?

Turn on the laser designator, and then there should be a scroll wheel option to turn on the visible laser. It will only work if the IR laser designator is active.

Does not work . Didn't use mods, why can't I see a visible dot? Do you need special video settings?

That is, I see a very small imperceptible red dot in the visible spectrum if you get very close. But there is no such thing as in your picture, there is only a small dot in the thermal imager that can be seen from the sky ...

Probably not going to attempt it at this time, it'd be a big rewrite of the script to get it to work, as vehicle turrets and player units (and more specifically the handheld laser designator) work in very different ways. Probably possible, I might give it a go sometime, but don't hold out for it, it's not big on my to-do list sorry.
