Decoy Eject Positions

[+Florian]

Does anyone knows, if there is a way to make the eject position move? I would need the chaff and flares coming out along a line on the aircraft. I guess it´s impossible, but maybe i didn´t mentioned a gimmick. Thanks in advance.

You're right... I'm afraid you cannot do that...

But we can make many eject positions around aircraft. My english is not good, so it is possible that I do not understand your question right We can make eject positions on nose, or on fuselage, or on tail, on wing, everywhere. But these positions are static.

 

But you are modders, so you know it. I am probably out

Rgr, than it has to stay, like it is. Thanks.

Perhaps I missunderstand your question, but you can change eject position in the aircraft's data.ini.

 

From an F-16 data.ini

 

[ChaffDispenser]

ReferenceName=AN/ALE-40

SystemType=DECOY_DISPENSER

EjectPosition= 1.0,-2.0,-0.05 <<<<< change xyz co-ordinates

EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-10.0

NumChaff=60

MinExtentPosition=-0.2,-1.5,-0.45

MaxExtentPosition=0.2,-2.5,-0.55

 

Maybe also try changing the other variables here for what you want to do.

The assigned eject positions are fixed, and do not move in sequence. If you add more CM eject positions in an effort to simulate sequential deployment of CMs (ala MiG-23MLD, MiG-29A, Su-25, etc.) you'll discover that they will deploy their assigned CMs simultaneously.

 

I'm afraid that sequential CM ejection wasn't coded into the current release.
