Help with the RWR please

[GhostDog]

I posted this on the UBI board in the hope that some testers or devs would take time to look at it. In the meantime maybe some of you could help me out:

 

 

 

I was working on a reference card for the A10 RWR but i'm missing some info.

 

I started chekking the symbology when i noticed that the ship "\_/" symbol had been dropped in 1.02.

If they had kept the same symbols without the ship icon that would have meant that several naval units would have the same RWR symbol as some ground units. Ie. the Kuznetsov and the Tunguska might both be "S6"

I just ran some quick tests that show that the symbol for the Kuz is now "SW" and the symbol for Neustrahimi is now "TP".

 

I was wondering if the Devs or perhaps some of the beta testers that might have this info would like to share it? This info isn't in the any of the documents supplied with 1.02

 

Also i'm missing some info on the min/max ranges of some of the g2a units. I would like to include this in the reference chart. If somebody has a list i would very much like to see it. Especially the ranges of the naval units anti-air armaments.

 

Thank you

GD, will try to find the info your looking for. I'm not an A10 expert and the RWR in the Lomac A10 may only be 99% to the real world A10 RWR. It's my guess that ED made the change to help take some of the confusion out of it.

Bumpski... any luck Snacky?

I haven't forgot about ya. I'm trying to get MrMudd to comment on it since he knows the ins and outs of the RWR in the A10. From what I gather there are certain pieces of symbology that had to be put in to help reduce confusion. I dont think the symbology is going to be 100% correct in lomac so it may have come down to what they had data for or what was classified.

Like I said, Mudd is the expert on this. My experience is with a totally different system.

Ok Great.

 

I'm not so concerned with how it compares to the real thing a i wouldn't know. More with how it works ingame.
