#OHD Vehicle Overhaul
weary lark
Need to find people who arent playing mod anymore
Ask why
But this thread isnt the best place to ask
Cuz people who respond here most likely enjoy mod
I think maybe it is claiming
Idk
torn magnet
maybe it should just take a long time to respond?
so its still possible to maybe land and get people out?
weary lark
Probably + the ui notifications are silly. They tell you "you cant enter vehicle" but not how to enter lol

what happened to the recoil bars?

server owners need to use this mod it makes gunplay feel so much better
weary lark
I think i will add a feature to disable or cobtrol exactly which vehicles spawn
So you can play the mod with all the infantry tweaks on smaller maps
floral shale
Yoshi it should just be you yelling at the pilot as the emergency alarms
serene hare
I think maybe it is claiming
I'd agree with that, right now you can't request a claim like in squad so if you have a bad SL, no one gets vehicles, and the squad size restriction stops me from grabbing a vehicle from spawn myself if people don't join squads
Hard enough as is getting people to follow you to make Habs, let alone respawn at main
weary lark
Ye
I think I'm going to add the following:
Ability for squad members to request vehicles.
Potentially lowering the squad size requirement to 2 players for most vehicles.
Scaling the size requirement based on the current lobby count, so low population servers can still use the vehicles.
Optional setting to completely disable any and all claiming restrictions, kind of like how kit restrictions can be disabled.

There are kits that have squad size restrictions, so in a similar way maybe the smaller vehicles could require less members than the bigger ones or something. So you can at least get to the front line if the server is too empty. The opfor small boy does not seem to dangerous anywaysh. Also if less than 10 players on the server a squad of 2 should be enough. Less than 6, free vehicles for all.
Cause at that point there is literally a vehicle per player 😄

I like the idea of unarmed light vehicles being unlocked on low pop servers, but IME if the server isn't full enough to unlock several AT on a side, someone will grab a tank/IFV and go spawn camp the other side. I've been on too many 5 v 5 servers where one dude is just rampaging around and you have no recourse. Or, you have two IFVs fighting each other with a handful of infantry running around in the middle of it and it's no fun. All in for Armored maps, where it's a ton of vehicles, and maybe some infantry though.

cant you just rpg them though

That’s why the vehicles have a squad requirement to claim them.

I like the idea of unarmed light vehicles being unlocked on low pop servers, but...
Each vehicle has its own claiming requirement

I think that would be best tbh. Need to hit 10v10 or something. Can level designers change access to vehicles? So, if you wanted to build a small skirmish map to seed servers, it could be inf only, or only trans vehicles or similar.
median pebble
Sweet
weary lark
Instead of map designers
You can go in admin cam i made and place vehicle spawns, as well as specify which vehicles spawn
Or you could just totally disable it
So you can have small inf maps in rotation
With vehicles disabled
median pebble
That would work well. I've played a bunch of Darkest Hour and they vehicle limits by map size, and by era. It changes things up. For logi especially, in conjuction with their logi system, how many logi trucks vary by map size. Sometimes none, sometimes 3 or 4.
weary lark
Ye
Squad has the same map but with a shit ton of factions and layers
Like the vehicles alone change so much

also i was thinking of adding some optional global override for kit restrictions
Like maybe even adding / removing items from certain kits

Hey say I wanted to make a low poly version of your mod, or at least something that plugs into yours without me reinventing the wheel. Is there a way to do this or will there be a way to do this? I want to make some more more low poly mods and maps but I don’t have much in terms of vehicles.
weary lark
Nah that wouldn't really work.
You are talking about cross-mod compatibility
Even if I gave out this mod, you would still have to make your own copy with your vehicles and it wouldn't really work with another version of the vehicle mod.
upbeat otter
Ah I see, bummer! Can I get a copy to play with? If it’s not too much of a ask?

Yah that claiming system sounds annoying. The ideal way for now probably would be to keep one vehicle per squad and you can only claim a vehicle if you have a squad size of 3 or more. If it drops below you lose that claim and if you leave the squad you lose the claim
No idea how to do that but you probably know lol
Also edge cases where you lose claims while in the vehicle would be annoying
It might just be better to get admin tools going and let server admins deal with people trolling
weary lark
Ye
Theres lots of edge cases for dealing with trolling properly
But at a certain point its just easier to ban
Ye
I didnt want to deal with claim limits cuz idk if i wanna kick people out
Imagine mid vehicle fight you lose a squad member and you get kicked out
Or i could do it so you cant get back in
But then people might get pissy and not leave / get vehicle killed on purpose
The reality is most other games let you troll like this
But you just get banned

Akchtually that is more of a feature request
Can you rework some of the top speed of vehicles like the btr 82 with the 30 mm is pretty dam slow compared to the btr 80
Other vehicles can also use a top speed reduction to make them more contralble at top speed
Like the BRDM and the MRAP are a bit to quic which makes them uncontrollable at top speed

idea for later updates: be able to choose how much FRAG/AP you use
so you oculd only use FRAG
or AP
if you wanted
loud spire
Maybe give the btr an ammo resource that recharges over time. That can be used to resupply buf not infinitely. Or at least add a cool down to a player using it.

It builds ammo resource passively and infantry rearm using ammo resource.
shut echo
so you oculd only use FRAG
And what is the current ammo in LAV AND 82? FRAG?

also gives the heavy vehicles something else to shoot at besides infantry.
= AT party wagons!

Imagine mid vehicle fight you lose a squad member and you get kicked out
In DH, if you lose your role and can't drive, it doesn't kick you out, it lets you keep driving, but once you exit, you can't reenter the drivers seat. So, it least lets you get back to a safe place instead of leaving you and an orphaned vehicle in the middle of nowhere.

Squad has this. It's nice
DH too. Except for armor. Tanks will stay until killed.

An re-arm idea, stolen from DH. As a logi guy, I don't like the idea of ammo only tied to FOBs, as it would only make FOBs easier to find. DH has separate ammo crates for infantry, armor/AT guns, grenades and AT rockets. Riflemen can also give MGs and AT guys ammo in the field, but that's a different issue. Having separate ammo adds strategic choices, since they all cost supply points. What I normally try to do is get inf ammo in the cap, and armor ammo outside the cap somewhere hidden, or behind the crest of a hill, so if they want, they can park hull down next to it. FOBs often go down, so if your forward ammo is tied to it, it's lost. Hide your ammo though, and it's likely there all match. Their rearm method is different too, instead of an instant rearm, you get one round at a time, like every 5 seconds. Only grenades and AT rockets you can pick up and go, otherwise, you have to stay there for a bit.

Almost added a shit ton of vehicles.
Had to stop myself.
I think all that is left to add is:
UI fixes for chatbox; make non-english characters visible.
Admin tool fixups:
- Vehicle list needs some re-work and also buttons for kicking everyone out and moving the vehicle need to be added.
- Leaving admin tool still shows all the player widgets, need to make player widgets actors so they can be easily destroyed.
Frag and AP ammo for vehicles where it is appropriate.
Save game panel needs option to create a new save for another map / anything other then the current map.
Need to add unsaved star indicator when settings are changed + revert button.
Maybe add duplicate save button, so the same settings can be set for another map.

Will there be more helicopters? Like mi-24 for Russia factions?
Actually, mi-24 as an attack helicopter would be interesting..
Like.. You would need 2 people to fully operate - pilot (rear cockpit) and gunner (front cockpit). And the gunner should be able to use the turret. Like in Ponchovies wagner mod. It should have fast rate of fire and explosive rounds.
Also I think that pilot should have an ability to shoot hydra rockets - rpg-like rockets, but with smoke grenade - like white trails. Also mi-24 can carry up to eight passengers.

OK
So I have an idea.
And it's not feature creep because it's actually not that hard to implement.
What if APCs/IFVs had a special ability maybe only reserved for the SL/squad member in the driver seat.
So force dismount the passengers.
So instead of telling everyone to get out and having to wait for one dude to get tf out of the APC.
You just poop everyone out and dip.
This would be for APCs/IFVs for inserting infantry into place.s

No ERA on BMP-3.

Placeable vehicle depot.

This way you can always have a few transports near the front-line instead of people playing walking-simulator.

Ya I feel like it should be. It's a recon vehicle.
Everything is a 1-2, maybe 3 hit in the mod right now.
Before at one point it was a 6-8 hit. That was super unfair to the infantry.
If you wanna base off of irl it's also accurate. I don't think anything short of a heavily armored IFV or a MBT can shrug off a direct rocket.
I think I'll add in the light vehicle spawner.
So everyone has a way to get around.
Maybe.
Maybe an unarmed TIGR and an unarmed Humvee would be nice.

From a gameplay standpoint, you cannot shoot your weapon while the big giant gun is busy loading.
The smoke from the ejection port in the back can give your position away.
The Barrel receding and moving up/down also tells people that you are busy reloading.
