@@corinthiansdaniels3728 nah, greco didn,t confuse anything, you can read that comment as the AI Artillery actually doing less teamkilling than player arty
"Grab them by the belt" tactics do kinda work in the fact that the enemy has the weakness of caring about their own guys and therefore won't call artillery if the players are ontop of other AI. Is fun, entire mod is good.

4:15 - The more things change, the more they stay the same. Had this exact problem with the Bukkit (minecraft server mods) plugins I wrote. No amount of provided documentation, pre built configs or babyproofing will stop them from fucking it up and claiming "mod broken". Good to see ya back up and active Rimmy.
The end-state of the modding lifecycle is always "become the crotchety old modder that you swore you would never be, because _these spoiled man-children can't be bothered to read three lines of text"_
This is amazing, it will really make the enemy feel more lika an equal power instead of some soldiers and armor in an entrenched position or scripted events. I don't play arma but I believe that the dynamic reactions of the AI will push individual soldiers to be more proactive and enganged in the experience instead of just "advande to objective -> fire until they stop firing back -> repeat". Love it, cant wait to se it in action in a seperate video.
I'm imagining an improved version of Antistasi using a lot of the modules in this system. Aircraft that actually taxi and take off, airbases that can be disabled (if temporarily), sniper/spotter teams, better supply convoys, and proportional QRF? That would honestly be SUCH a breath of fresh air, because it gets a bit tiring having things pop into existence and head straight for the players with no regard to anything else (driving in a straight line there, sending like 4 MBTs to deal with a handful of infantry, aircraft spam and sending dedicated AA aircraft when there's no real air threat), so I wonder if someone *could* piece these together to replace some of the limited and very dated Antistasi systems.
How cool to see this! Back in ArmA 2 I made the ECHO Fire Director mod, so that AI could finally use the mortars and artillery allocated. It used designated spotter elements that were paired with one or more Fire Direction Centers. Those Centers controlling a number of batteries. Each spotter would report on what it could see, but blocked up in groups. The FDC would take the groups and create fire missions, assigning type of round, shot count, and radius to the sheaf. Based on priorities the FD would assign a battery to one of the fire missions. Exclusion zones as well as logic to prevent blue on blue incidents restricted some events. During fire the shooting units would call out over comms that they were firing, splash time, and fire mission complete. The Fire Director was designed not to bog down with large scenarios. I had written a system that supported asynchronous functions, allowing data to flow back and forth without hanging waiting for results. Simply camping then shooting at distance at targets became very unhealthy if a spotter was around. I did not mark my spotters, they were usually well concealed just like real forward observers would be. The rain of shells comprising a sheaf was murderous. I enjoyed using it for defense of amphibious landings. I made a demo of the Fire Director. A Russian peasant is in the hills overlooking his village. A US spotter team is nearby. Below are elements of Russian and US forces, primarily Russian. In the distance is a Russian D30 battery. Somewhat closer by is a US 82mm mortar pit. Our peasant gets to watch the carnage. th-cam.com/video/a_-UYZ-UzvQ/w-d-xo.html
The pure terror the players have when they see the FPV drone barreling at them is insane. They only see the drone a second before it hits them. Really wondering how this is going to change ops now.
I don't know how Arma Modding works so if this something you can already do, nice A 'Broken Arrow' call, if there a mortar, artillery, or Infantry unit that is being overwhelmed, it sends a 'Ping' (I don't know what the right term is) to start every possible fire mission in range, maybe limiting it Artillery, Aircrafts, and Mortars. Though seeing a swarm of 5 FPE drones hitting a general area would be funny.
It would conflict with something already in the mod, to stop the AI calling in Artillery on its own units. I could however see a nice point for "Once contact is lost, call fire support on the area" kind of like Counter-Battery. I'd say have it be like a 25% chance, as it would have players be more careful of "Well, we've just taken this base, we could rest, but the enemy does know our position."
yes, there is a lot of 'friction' in the system from the very start. Firstly, a spotter might not even call in a mission. Or the mission might scatter a random distance. Then, when a mission arrives, depending on the type it can scatter further. FPV drones have a 5% chance of not locking on to any target, for example, and just slamming into the original target. Artillery has different scatter based on the type with rockets scattering far more than any other type of artillery. Also, HE missions (except for rockets) fire a spotting round first, to give players warning, and the spotting round is intentionally incredibly inaccurate. Rockets can be spotted quite early due to their slow arc and smoke trail, so they can be avoided that way. There's also limits on how close friendly forces can to the enemy for certain call-ins. So as forces close in, their call in options may become more limited.
@RimmyDownunder so cool, and love the fact you released the mod for all of us out there. Thank you for all the hard work and effort you clearly put into the mod. As well as into everything we are grateful.
Once again an amazing mod that changes how Arma 3 missions can be made opening up a lot more options for people in the eden editor. Really interested to see missions with such complexe AI.
If being in the arma community for more than a couple years has taught me something, is that people will still use it wrong and put the fault on the mod instead of them not reading the mod documentation
The bomb drone makes that electronic device from the contact dlc feel useful. You can now jam drones. Honestly, good job rimmy. This is a well-done mod that i would like to try some day.
thank you :) players have thus far reported that it's really fun to hunt for spotters to stop fire support from hitting them. adding a new threat to the game.
Amazing stuff, Counter-battery fire and other artillery tactics is something that hasn't been paid attention nearly enough in gaming; this is why I love ARMA 3 so much, the integration with all the awesome mods that are out there that completely change how you play.
Though I don't play Arma, I'm a massive supporter of mod communities and development. This sounds like a really good overhaul for the usual less that brilliant AI in most games. Good on you Rimmy.
9:09 honestly Rimmy, this is why I feel Arma really dropped the ball when it came to drone gameplay. Because man, there’s very few counters to them, even with mods.
I made this comment earlier but the jammer from the contact dlc would be useful in jamming drones. But I don't know about distance and for the fact that it would probably be difficult to jam a drone flying Mach Jesus towards you.
Hey Rimmy, I love this idea. One thing I would suggest for the Anti Air, the ability for the AI to flip on and off the Radar to prevent Anti-Radiation attacks. As it is, it is way too easy to take out ground based radar AA because they leave their radar on constantly. Doing it this way would be a challenge to pilots and would bring back SUPPRESSION of enemy air defenses instead of DESTRUCTION.
Imagine a TH-camr with 500k+ Subs making a Mod for a 10+ Year Old Game. Ultra Based. Thank you Rimmy. Edit: It would be sick that AI uses Group Size / Player Density in a Area and/or player Kills to call in Fire Support. But i think thats a Mod for the Mod.
Its sexy mods like this that make me look forward to new games again. I've been casually playing with operation harsh doorstop and i hope mods like these continie to inspre the team to make a better foundation.
Not sure if this is outright compatible considering it has its own LOS/Spotting system but Zeus Wargame RTS would benefit from this immensely, especially at larger scales like company level stuff. Was just wishing your FPV mod was out when I saw this, very cool.
You create so much enjoyable content, so glad you ripped yourself out of the PDX prison and now make a wide variety of interesting and engaging content
It would probably be hard to do but it would be rad if someone made a compatibility mod with killahpotatoes' Liberation mod, where airfields are indeed airfields that hit you when you try to attack a position in their range and military bases had SPH batteries to send around, God I wish I could code.
I may not understand... Well, anything about moding! But I can tell this is impressive! Well done Rimmy! Well done! (Also, welcome back! Sorry to hear 'bout the ear and flu thing, but glad you're better!)
I haven't even watched the rest of the video. But I am glad and have you missed you Rimmy. Sorry to hear that it was a result of illness that you have now overcome. I'm glad your back though, makes the internet a better place.
This mod is amazing. Is it possible to assign drones as scouts? That would be fantastic if AI drones could detect enemy units, call in fire mission on them or potentially launch a hellfire or something. This way even the mobile AAs would become way more valuable and effective assets to counter them.
I watched this whole thing while passing out from sleep depravation at 3:47am and all I can recall is a sort of fuzzy fuge state of Rimmy explaining his mod and then getting mad at jank arma code. 11/10 fever dream would do again.
I love the idea of listening to the AI "Talk" and either listening to them nearby as a player or tapping their comms channel. Though it would be entertaining to use the goofy black Mesa radio chatter voices. In all fairness I'm really excited to see what you have planned in the future. And how your server will deal with the new threat
That would be part of the radio module. In addition to knowing when friendlies are doing their missions (which already exists, but this would be an immersive way of knowing) and knowing where enemy artillery is via reports, I would also like to include a small chance for a side to intercept the enemy's intention and warn players that they called for artillery, or an air strike etc.
......What are we even living that now the AI in ArmA can call in Fire Support dynamically and not just as a scripted event?! My actual, genuine fluffy hat off to you, that's insanity.
could be cool if the AI could recognize areas where large amounts of vehicles are coming and going from, and use artillery mines. Or like sapper teams, who may infiltrate a supply route and lay mines or IEDs. Maybe they even stay and wait to ambush the people trapped in the minefield.
Seeing what you've made AI capable of doing almost makes me wish for a gamemode in arma where you just play it like an RTS, commanding squads of AI around on missions
