Adding SAMS trough Mission editor?

Recommended Posts

Is there any way I can add a "static" SAM like SA-6 or SA-3 using the in-game mission editor? A SAM that can track me and shoot me down.

 

Is possible?

It is possible, but seldom works out well, as you must place the battery of launchers and their SAM radar.  You're much better off copying the offsets from amother SAM site, and then using that as a guide, place the entire battery by hand on your terrain-of-choice. 

 

A known issue: if you hard code the SAM-type (as opposed to letting the system randomly choose), the SAM radar(s) for the hard-coded battery will go into stealth mode, though this doesn't effect the AI at all. In other words, you won't see it on the RWR.

It would be great if the ME had some feature to place SAM sites like "SA-6" and you get the proper radar, the launchers and the close range AAA in a simmilar way to naval fleets

No problem, we have our texan friend : "SAM LAUNCH !!!!"

Note Use Of ARTILLERY And COMMAND Types To Prevent Game AI Placement

Note Suspend Network Type Or Missiles Will Not Fire.

Note MissileFireChance=5 To Prevent Salvo Launches.

Special Note Automatic Sites Will Use Full Available Inventory/Game AI Is Locked In But Can Create New-
Defined Sites With New Types.To Avoid Game AI Conflicts SA-5/SA-10 Batteries Will Be Created As Artillery-
Types With Individual Guidance Systems IE GroundObjectRole=ARTILLERY/TargetType=MISC Missile Guidance-
Radar Will Be Created As Command Types IE GroundObjectRole=COMMAND/TargetType=MISC Special Note-
DataLink=TRUE Remains But NetworkType= Will Be Suspended For Air Artillery Missile Types/There Is One-
Exception Ground Command And Artillery Gun Types Can Be Netted In.These Tweaks Are To Prevent Game Engine-
From Populating Non-Used Types In Historic Locations.

I Have Found This Setup Will Work Fine SF1 Series Including BVR Engagements.Have Not Tested In SF2.

Hopefully This Will Spawn Different Targeting Ideas But Remember SF1 Is Final Cfg State While SF2 AI Will
Certainly Change.REFERENCE WORK ONLY WORK IN PROGRESS!

what part of "hard coded, directly name called SAM/Radars don't register on the RWR/TEWS" wasn't quite clear?

They will still engage, but they are invisible to the Player. Until you get within visual range, and can have the 'red target box' show up. (on Normal or  Easy Mode)

 

yes, it works fine in 1stGens, as they lack the game coding for 'late model' RWR (including Vector and TEWS). But ALL directly named units will go 'stealth' in SF2 -- including hand-placed ships.

 

This is why one needs to use the generic terms "SAMLauncher" "SAMRadar" and "EWR", and hope the item's Userlist forces the Game Engine ™ to group the appropriate units together (and sometimes it don't).

 

The 3W editor will NOT do it correctly. Which is why all batteries are placed INTO the terrain's targets ini. And in my terrains, pretty damn close to their Real Life ™ locations. (yes, I have a map; actually a kmz)
