Cruise Missile Waypoint Options

[unmerged(290331)]

JanH,

I know that you guys at TTG have incorporated BOL (Bearing Only Launch) on most of the ASCM in the game. Are there future plans for Cruise Missile Flight Path Waypoint Options or Missile Seeker Turn On Range Option?

We've been thinking about adding multiple waypoints for missiles, yes. Not sure when/if it will happen.

How about waypoints/sensor off/on for torpedoes?
Generally there could be UUVs for the submarines as those most likely will be operational in 2030

We also need a way to explain to the user all these options. The engine itself supports all kind of things like orders on waypoints, but presentation-wise, this will increase the apparent complexity of the game manyfold without that many benefits.

This is a good candidate for the suggestions subforum, btw.

How about that particular feature that make real modern torpedoes so effective: Wire Guidance?

For what? Pretty sure every weapon already tracks from launch, be it through own sensor or datalink (think we should call it MagicLink ), and hits only the intended target with some weapons retargeting on their own on a miss.

Weapons actually making an intercept rather than just going straight at a target would be nice though.

* That and the waypoints, of course.

think we should call it MagicLink .

i believe it's called Quantum entanglement. The Magic link that connects all of consciousness LOL..well maybe. :laugh:
