All with an hour 😭

[glossy basalt]

just ripping stuff out of my main mod that I've had for a while and making it public

or more public - it was always public just harder to find

[lofty crow]

Ah

[glossy basalt]

The switchblade is rank locked at Major - they have a realistic combat range / battery, they can be jammed and will stop armor in its tracks - pretty sure they are fast enough to chase and engage helicopters as well.

Hope to see it in some public servers soon. I want to chase little birds around with it.

[lofty crow]

Sick man,love realistic drones

[obsidian jetty]

I don’t know what this is but is it like a shahed

[lofty crow]

Basically suicide drone with wings

[obsidian jetty]

Got it

[glossy basalt]

its exactly like a Shahed

except man portable

and American

[glossy basalt]

Someone shows me how to animate my tracks or mine plow and ill drop this on the workshop

[obsidian jetty]

Ask spacestrider or spaces friends

[remote wind]

Doesn’t show up arsenal

[glossy basalt]

ill fix it in the morning

[wintry bloom]

Does it fly like a quadcopter or does it have its own flight system?

[north lagoon]

I support this message 🤌

[glossy basalt]

added to the arsenal

it flies like an FPV Drone BUUUUUT I tweaked salamis system to make it have basically its own flight system

its not perfect but its something

[obsidian jetty]

@glossy basalt if you use drone command station you can make it look like shahed which is something that should probably be disabled

For balancing

[astral drum]

any way you could make it work as an observation drone with a rotating camera? this flight system is awesome and would be cool for recon shit

[glossy basalt]

what do you mean?

[glossy basalt]

I don't see why not

[wintry bloom]

Really good work on this! Could we expect anything like a geran or lancet in the future?

[thick hill]

Explain please want to use it in a milsim op

[astral drum]

that would be sick, it flies much faster and controls better so would be nice to just rotate and area at 900m

[glossy basalt]

I think if we make a recon one like that it shouldnt have the explosion physics of a suicide UAS

flying it will be a massive ass pain at that point

[astral drum]

I would agree, can’t use it as a bomb 😂 I was able to orbit a airstrip but it was tricky because it has some pep

[glossy basalt]

ill throw one in tonight

So if you use the drone command station you connect up to 3 switchblades or normal drone @glossy basalt

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09HRVRAeVf8 for tutorial

[worldly dust]

Dude this is sick man

[glossy basalt]

tracking on that

if you mean you shouldn't be able to use 3 of them I mean, I disagree. They are 1000 supply each and rank locked at major

if you want to handicap your team using the supply equivilent of an abrams tank to fly 3 switchblade drones around I think people should be allowed to - if they end up wasting resources it will just hurt their team

its like the VX Gas missiles in my other mod, 600 supply per shot

so overpowered, but hard to use and expensive. Miss your target and you waste 600 supply

[obsidian jetty]

Oh okay I didn’t know about the rank and supply good call

[thick hill]

Thanks a lot I just tried but I have to check the tutorial

[astral drum]

I’m gunna kiss you.

[glossy basalt]

added in - go download that update

would there be any interest in me making a command station that does not include batteries but doesnt weigh a ton and can still let you control multiple drones?

[thick hill]

It would be cool to have a station that has 2/3 of these in it instead of battery

[zenith wasp]

Do you have a link to your main mod? I can’t find

[glossy basalt]

[obsidian jetty]

@glossy basalt I really like your sb300 mod and hope there are more updates and more uavs

[zenith wasp]

https://tenor.com/view/the-simpsons-homer-nervous-anxious-finger-twitch-gif-5915601 sorry i meant the one it was split from or have I misunderstood

[glossy basalt]

I am pretty on board with adding a Shahed for the Russian Faction - will likely do that later today.

[glossy basalt]

I am confused lol

[zenith wasp]

I thought your switchblade was stripped from a bigger mod you had made 🤣

[glossy basalt]

Oh yes

I had it built in my 1-11 Armored Cavalry Assets mod but I am currently in the process of deconstructing everything in that mod and making all of it standalone / plug and play

this will include an M1E3 Abrams, Different versions of the MLRS, An overhaul on the 2S1 to add FASCAMs and Smoke Shells, More supply to a lot of vehicles

eventually the supply stuff will split off as well as a standalone to add more toughboxes, arsenals, Surpaks, etc.

Ill eventually get my IED mod rebuilt correctly as well.

[zenith wasp]

Oh you do spoil us!

[glossy basalt]

That mod I tried to focus on some hyper realism but it kind of made a lot of the stuff OP - Usable / modular turret racks and battle damage repair kits make the abrams a beast. The 2S1 as well - being able to reload using carryable supply from the turret rack was my though process.
