Setting Up Repeated IRBM Salvos

Post by Boagrius »

Hi all,

I am new to CMO and have been building a custom scenario of my own. I'd like to set it up so that a group of DF-26 launchers fire repeated salvos of IRBMs at enemy positions, pausing to reload in between each one. The issue I have encountered is that when I group the DF-26's with an ammo source (bunker, truck, whatever) that contains additional DF-26 missiles, the TELs miraculously fire all of their own missiles along with all of the stored missiles (from the ammo provider) in a single massive salvo. Given that the DF-26 TEL is a single missile system, it seems like something fishy is going on here. Can someone advise me on how I can get my DF-26's to behave more realistically?

Many thanks,

Boagrius

You could use Lua to set a timer for however long you think it'd take them to reload?
Alternatively, you could put the TELs and the reload carriers in separate groups, and use a support mission?

Thanks for the reply. I will try both suggestions and see how I get on.

As an aside, it's interesting that there doesn't seem to be much in the way of information out there on how long it takes a DF-26 TEL to reload and be ready to go again after firing. Would be interested to hear from others who may be able shed some light on this?
