[Added] feature request: allow IRST/ATFLIR as fire control

[thewood1]

I ran your test and couldn't find any IRST pod on your F-15C Legion. So I added my own F-15C with a Legion IRST pod. I ran it 3 times and my added F-15C detected the Mig-29 between 25 and 30 nm each time.

The pic is the last run through. Not sure why there are no pods on the F-15s you placed.



btw, the version I used the .17 beta.

Weird, but the mistake must be on me than..[&:]
The left two do have the Talon Hate pod with the same IRST as the Legion.

The ones with Talon HATE (same IRST)
Detection ranges differ but I never get @ your ratings of 25-30Nm. Maybe there is somthing sweet in your beta [;)]

Made a new .scen with Talon pods on the left, Legion in the middle and Sniper on the right.
Data from above is from this scenario.

"I put F-15s with several pods against a head on MiG-29s and it is not detected until within 10Nm by the eyball of the pilot."

That doesn't match what you said here at all. I am confused. I got the legion pod to detect around 27 nm. Your first comment was you only got eyeball detection at 10 nm. Now the test above got detection from the pods at 3-5 nm.

Can you please take your original test, swap in the correct F-15 with the Legion and see what you get before we start creating new tests. I want to make sure are all looking at the same thing.

I put a Talon and Legion directly next to eachother in the 1st scen.
These are the results. Talon HATE was on the left and detected first at 8.2 Nm and the Legion at 5.9Nm.
At the sensor page both the Talon and Legion are operational.

Shall we wait until the beta becomes active and then try again?

I am going to test aspect on the mod I did of your test. That might be the issue. I'm not sure if its an issue or WAD if aspect has that much influence.

Implemented, currently in testing.
