Simpler way to call air support

Post by Savage »

Maybe a simpler way to call in air to ground support would be to "paint"(not literally) or mark the area that you want the ordinance to land in. You could use a laser designator, or binocs. Only SF and/or sniper would have the laser designator/binocs.

To mark the target you would aim it at the area you want marked, and press the fire button, like in Bf42 or Bfv. Once this happens, you shout something like "requesting air support here!" and for a limited amount of time, planes and helos would have a box show up around that area(the same box that is around an enemy vehicle on the airplane HUD's).

It would hopefully be easier than spotting a target and yelling at pilots to bomb such-and-such. Just an idea, probably has been posted before but whatever. Add, comment, or criticize please.

This has been proposed before it is an awesome idea beacuse most armies particualry British and US have forward observers to do this. The only problem is wether it is possilbe with the BF2 engine and how much work it will take to do.
