Zathred -> Intelligent SAM Operators (11/14/2019 10:09:19 AM)
While we are all waiting for CMO to be released today I've posted an example scenario in the LUA Legion sub-forum which implements basic AI for SAM operators via LUA scripting. The example shows how to activate a SAM FCR radar only when a contact is within missile range. https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=4716062

IIRC SAM facilities can already behave this way if you just instruct them to be EMCON-silent...?

Maybe I didn't understand the scenario right, but how would a Sam site know IRL when the target is in missile range without radar or buddy tracking?

The idea is that someone else (another radar, or a passive IR or ESM system etc.) is doing the tracking and providing offboard data to the SAM unit, so they need to light up only at the last possible moment.

The idea of using the LUA scripting is to perform more intelligent actions rather than just on/off and I've provided examples at the end of the post (e.g. Don't activate FCR radar if a missile is approaching in case it's an ARM targeting the radar site)

Interesting.... I've generally been putting my Radars and SAMS in a single Anti-Air Mission. Sounds like I want one Mission for the Radars, and a second (w/ EMCOM Passive) for the SAMS... Again, learn something new every day w/ this game! -Lee
