Assign land units to a base - 7/29/2020 10:30:05 PM

Is it possible to assign Land Units (I'm thinking SAM or SSM units) to a base to allow replenishment of ammunition.

Barring that, is there a way to accomplish this with LUA scripting?

If you mean an airbase where aircraft get rearmed based on their ready times - I think the answer is no for SAM and SSM platforms. As far are as lua, I have never looked into doing this. But if a function exists, you might be able to fire it via a Special Action. It's one of those things one has to look through the documentation and see if there is code to meet your goals. If it can get done, someone with more knowledge will get back to you shortly.

Lua scripting will replenish the ammo no problem but you can also attach a magazine to a ground unit.

The downside is that the unit then becomes fixed itself and it tethered to the magazine/

Just add your unit and right next to it add an 'ammo pad' or other ammo magazine. Then group them. Add whatever ammo you want to the magazine

there is an ammo truck that if they are grouped with they can resupply from. I'd like to see ground units have the ability to have a home base, then they could go out on missions and come back.
