Sensors/Aircraft

Melle · 09-26-2005, 07:18 PM

I'm just curious if anyone has found a work-around for the problem "IsConsideredAircraft=yes" and "HasSensors=yes"???

(trying to make a subhunt helicopter)

Suggestions wil be welcomed!

Impossible. Flying aircraft are cosidered to be on a different 'layer' than ground/naval objects, which usually have cloak abilities. Docked aircraft, however, can detect cloaked objects. However, I do believe the code should be Sensors=yes instead of HasSensors=yes,

Hmm.

Is this possible?

Heli deploys into building with sensors and rotor spin anim? (making it look like heli is hovering)
Almost like the siegechopper.

Then it would be able to engage subs.

well, that wouldn't work, because buildings can't have sensors, unfortunatly.

Buildings used to be able to have sensors in RA2 but they were taken out by Yuri's Revenge (either in a RA2 patch, or YR, or YR 1.001 - not sure when building sensors stopped working).

OK, I'll have to come up with something else then.
Thanks for the help!
