good, one less lethal at the fed

[Hoonter 232]

So with this rule change if I throw a GPS on the truck at the fed who hops up into the blackfish and we roll up on it at platinum trader and it and the truck and the fish are there would I still be good to seize the blackfish or would this be considered losing sight of it?

If the truck is still in the fish. If it’s out, you only maintained sight of the truck technically with the tracker so would only seize the truck.

tbh I don’t think this rule change would do much. If your slinging something illegal, it’s most likely in a blackfish, and we all know how aids it would be to track a blackfish/shoot em down

it would basically be a waste of time...fish would go 2+ km up and fly around until restart or until apd lost sight... (id image apd would need to provide evidence they maintained sight in the event of a player report)

Sorry if I am wrong about this but I assume the Sling Load system on the server is a server side mod included in the mission file?

Sling Load mod is a pain in the ass, that mod is supposed to be for Sling Loading vehicles you "can't" Sling Load in non-modded Arma. The mod ropes constantly snap for no reason due to Arma modded physics.

Maybe Developers should consider APD being able to use Anti-Air Titan launchers with Fuel Dart mod? The Darts if they hit will only deal DMG to the Fuel Tank and sap Fuel until empty.

[MAV 1722]

well not entirely true - you can attach a 'tow sling' on the vehicle... then attach with chopper...

with a blackfish - you can legit load a truck into the back of the thing..

Sorry I didn't specify, I was meaning to mention all aircraft in general. The problem is all other options of MODDED Sling Loading are not very reliable as they constantly break.

qwerty

[MAV 1722]

yeah - Olympus basically will never go the modded route... they used to have fast roping to deploy but it was a 50/50 chance you fall and die without a mod...so they took it out.

What’s the point in changing the ticket price?
