Smoke systems for vehicles

[Mats391]

I dont quite understand. Is it dependent on vehicle? Would not surprise me tbh
Or did you just change wrong files?

Effects can be added straight from tweak which describes it (f.e. from tweaks in common_server\effects\vehicles\misc\e_smokegrenade) or from additional tweak which include initial one like effects from common_server\effects\weapons\misc\e_tanksmoke.

Effects from \e_tanksmoke have fixed scale independently on scale of effect which was included in tweak. Size of cloud don't depends on vehicle, it was first theory.

[Mats391]

make sure that the emitters have unique names when you make different effects for vehicles.

[Chuva_RD]

Hard to make it less high, now it roughly as 2/3 of current smoke cloud

[Mats391]

Yea, effects coding is annoying
To make it not grow that high, try playing with the gravity modifier. However that might make it disappear too quickly.

White phosphorus burns at 900—1200C and make noise for IR cameras. Now effective for agressive screening.

That WP round now IR blocking will make it an interesting change in the use of the challenger! I like it!

In 1.4 CR2 wont be able to see through WP smoke.

Still will be interesting, as they can use it to block enemy infantry vision from long range on buildings for example

Isn't WP smoke a lot whiter?

It depends on lightning.




edit: also I added HE to WP rounds cause they very harmful for uncovered soldiers.

[sweedensniiperr]

Any word on this? This is something that would be really cool to see in PR.

Are you considering other vehicles that also op smoke?

As chuva being a part of pr tea now, it's all up to him to implement them
