Weapon Idea's Is this possible?

Post by Asuka Langley » Wed Aug 26, 2009 7:08 pm

1st idea
I just thought of this idea. A airstrike weapon that airstrikes to the enemy . The weapon will be a radio, and when you fire its going to be something like "Start operation b, send in units" " roger", sending in 5 wasp units" and it spawns a ai vehicle from the sky that attacks the enemy.
The voice could be a trigger sound. Also maybe you can spawn some vehicles with the passenger seats filled with ai? Pelican, Spirit ship, etc. Ex. Pelican lands and releases all ai soldiers like in b30 and then goes away? Maybe we can make a duplicate weapon for each of them so that it spawns ai's and vehicles with skins corresponding to the team color? I could maybe make a new vehicle with the diffrent skin?


Is this possible?

"Oh hai, bring in teh units" sound= Possible.

AI's= Possible.

AI's that don't attack you instantly= Not possible. At least, not ones that are spawned from a gun.

AI's that drop units and leave= Not possible without hardcore scripting.

I'd say that a more possible weapon would be like the Mortar in Battlefield 2.

You can't spawn AI from a gun.

He means spawning a few wasps, which are AI's in vehicles.

And if there was a recorded animation then the AI wouldn't spawn when the dropship... drops.

You would have a problem getting the AI to recognize friend or foe. Unless you want them to attack everyone. I once thought about the process that would be necessary to call in an airstrike using some sort of smoke grenade. No AI, just attacks the general area. It'd take a bit of work though.
