Realistic Warfare Mod

[gritty hound]

yippee new mod

[rigid briar]

Oi oi, how dare someone make a replacement for my missile mod

[tidal spear]

I got the joke 😆.
But nah I'm not replacing your mod your's is a fun arcadey mod while mine goes for the realism.

[wooden lodge]

how do i install?

[gritty hound]

i do wish there was a better way to display ui for mods

[tidal spear]

You cannot yet I will upload it today if it would upload

[rigid briar]

true... unless i make beam-riding missiles, ahahaha

(i am not planning to do that, not soon at least)

[tidal spear]

The mod is out now! Enjoy!

[twin junco]

Link? 😄

[tidal spear]

Wait I noticed I placed the colors in the wrong folder 😂

They should have been in the data_static

[warm girder]

I have a question missle mod creator

[rigid briar]

Sure, give

[warm girder]

Are you able to use unity navmesh for missle path finding?

Or would you use raycast

[rigid briar]

Non

[warm girder]

I see why not

[tidal spear]

Here is the initial release! Enjoy!

I can also recommend to make a little announcement on #general-trailmakers 🙂

Grats on the release!

[tidal spear]

Thanks for the advice and the support 🙂

I'm gonna make the ground missile tutorial now so everyone can enjoy that too.

[tidal spear]

The ground missile tutorial is out check it out now here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AZyNmj4v_o

[rigid briar]

ah, so you do have beam-riding missiles, cool

btw i may steal the idea of pressing a button to change block kind, on one side no more hoping people get the right color, on the other more ui

If you want to take some code from my bomb trajectory mod code for the bomb reticle idea, go ahead, I'd love to see how you'd implement it.

👍

[tidal spear]

Where is your bomb trajectory code

nvm I found it

[tidal spear]

I did think that I will implement a Newton-Raphson to get the drop zone error to at least to 0.01 m

with little to known performance cost

[urban pawn]

Np, I am happy to see someone pick up on my project since I am too lazy to continue it.
What did you think of using the seat's velocity as a substitute to calculating the bomb bay block's velocity, was it a good optimization or just not needed?

[tidal spear]

its a neat way to calculate it

[tidal spear]

also getting the blocks velocity is unneccessary since you dont need the reticle for structures that dont have aplayer in them

Also I'd appreciate if this would get featured by some one who's famous in the Trailmakers circles. That would bring a wider audience to my mod and I could take and maybe implement the community's submissions for new fearures and improving the already done features.

This would make the mod a lot closer to the audience and make it better for experinced and new users.

Great news I got the bomb intersection calculator working in Desmos! Now I just have to implement it in lua with raycasts.

[gilded needle]

very nice

[tidal spear]

here's the 3d version

Great news! I got the bomb reticle working now. It will be introduced in the next update 😀.

[gilded needle]

very epic

will you be accounting for gravity set in the session panel or is it always 9.81m/s^2?

[tidal spear]

I get it dynamically with the get gravity function
