I had hope that it works more gently and thru engine (like lan - but this is just moving plane by vectors like pupet - time to make it right by agent or AI unit :)

Thanks Komodo, unfortunatelly I quit Arma3 and waiting the 4 :)

amazing stuff Devas, ty
would you update it so that the Loiter and Autopilot options in the scroll menu are highlighted with different colors for quick selection

Hello, I tried to use the loiter with the blackfish and when I switch to the gunner, the 100 motor decreases to 3, which causes the radius of the loiter to decrease and it rotates erratically, preventing proper aiming with the cannons. Is there any way to fix or correct that?

I only seem to have this error when this mod is enabled. Removing the mod also removes the error.

When clicking the "Autonomous" check box, it immediately unchecks itself. I am unable to issue commands to UAVs in the terminal.

are you sure on that? It is only extending the event handlers on the main Air and Plane classes and running the code only if loiter or autopilot is enabled as far as I remember now

This mod seems to break the vanilla and CUP drones - and probably more. It disables the "autonomous" option that allows them to fly on their own.

im a bit late to the club but after a couple hours of tests it seem with the blackfish at least if u keep the throttle at 9% and use the loiter mode you will get to around 386km/h min and 395km/h maximum which seems to cause a form of sling shot effect on the loiter causing it veer of course in a angular motion each time it completes a rotation!

What is the loiter radius?

amazing mod thank you for putting it together.

yes, with a small remark on that mod to here you can

Evening, can I use part of your code in a VTOL mod, I am helping fix?

does this mod helps me out, when im flying solo with Ka52 and want to enjoy gunner seat during flight?

does this mod helps me out, when im flying solo with Ka52 and want to enjoy gunner seat during flight?

radius is depending on the speed but not possible to display in this current version

I was just wondering, what is the radius for the loiter and is there a way to change it?

自动驾驶可以让你的飞机保持平飞。可以说是舔地助手，在你看地图，设置坐标，寻找目标等时候该插件都可以派上用场。
用鼠标滚轮选择Autopilot ON/OFF可以切换打开/关闭
特征：
启用时，飞行高度将会固定在当前海拔高度并且把该高度设置为初始高度
启用时，可以控速度，仰俯，滚转和偏航，松开操纵杆后会自动返回初始高度
可以通过代码/脚本来使自动驾驶在任务一开始时就启用
只有飞行员可以打开/关闭
对于宙斯等实时编辑器生成的直升机和固定翼，可以通过以下代码来给玩家端添加自动驾驶功能：
[this] spawn DEVAS_AutoPilotEnable;
当遇到如下情况时自动驾驶会关闭：
速度低于最小着陆速度，直升机则为低于40KMPH
发动机损坏
滚转角度大于35度（仅适用于直升机）
仰俯角大于最大允许值——直升机为20度，固定翼为50度。

Doesn't appear to work.

I signed up even though I knew the mod wasn't working properly and waited for a notification that a new update was available to use.

Mod works client side.

It still rocks but it would be great if you can improve it further, if and when you've got the extra time to put on the project.

actually this mod needs a redo but problem is, I do not have much time :(

Hello Devastator and thank you for this great mod.
I can't play without it so I'm grateful for this. I have a question for you. Could you somehow create a mod that allows you to keep a certain speed while flying? Sometimes it's hard to control speed while flying, goes up and down but it would be great if we can set a specific air speed and that the airplane adjust accordingly exactly as the altitude mod you created.

actually it could work on client side only. Give a try and tell me as well :)

I'd guess this is not client side?

I have found that the issues with circling in the same spot instead of in an orbit in loiter mode usually only happens to me when im on a mod map. never have it happen on a vanilla map

Have you figured out what causes it? I was able to get it to work yesterday roughly 20% of the time. This mod is such a crutch for my ISR missions lol

I noticed the same in a previous coop mission. This mod needs an update with improvements

Any known issues with the FIR A-10C?
I have a strange issue where sometimes enabling "orbit" mode will cause the aircraft to stop moving and start spinning in place while rapidly losing air speed which eventually leads to a stall.

I promised Aplion to work on the Submarine Mod next. So need to do some stuff there but at the moment I am totally overwhelmed with RL topics...

Any plans for that in the near future?

depends on Airplane I think. You need to try :) this Script is an old one and actualy needs a redone..

Thanks, is there a speed you would recommend for a clean circle orbit?

based on speed

Is there any way to gauge what the "Loiter" radius is, its super difficult to set it where i want it. Is it based on speed? or does the script manage the turn automatically?

Is it possible to have the autopilot turn off when a missile lock/incoming missile happens?

Estimate is based on experience I would say. Speed is adjusting the raid as far as I remember(it has been a long time since I released this script)

do you have any tips on how to measure a proper loiter circle? i'm having trouble estimating where I need to start the loiter if I am in an aircraft needing to circle an area. I either am too narrow or too wide around the area

idea behind this mod is not to make a fake AI pilot but give an instrument to pilot to ease in some cases the controls and let him think his next move

Could you add a "go to tanker "for those that can Aerial Refuel?

And save a number (more than 10) wp with altitude and speed cap.And a setting to increase the obstacle avoidance radius to more than 200m.

Is it possible to cap the speed to 3-5 miles /h? And cap altitude to below treetop level? Could I get some way to make the AP avoid some obstacle and fly to tree line, pitch up and fly above it and (maybe with a WP setting) ,return to previous altitude after passing .The game really needs a way to make helicopters fly slow.Maybe,a speed bug,an arrow pointer,to make it stop from gaining more speed than set .For helicopters,I meant.

I only have one question its compatible with VTOLs too right?

are there any shortcuts to use Auto Pilot??
it's riskey to select from action menu since there's ejection seat below or above

ok, this is not problem for me.
i think people which play should happy with that.

Possible but I need to adjust the code and make it cba dependent

hello,
thanks for this MOD.
it possible to set button instead use this by mouse?

Hey no rush Devastator. I know these mods take some time to refine and perfect

after I finish working on my other Mod, I promise that I will include a GUI here and then we can check how to improve it further :)
