Mechanically Reloaded ATGM System

110k hpgbproductions  6.6 years ago

Manually Reloaded ATGM Exp. Ver 1.0
AstInd. Mechanics

[ ! ] Only tested on HIGH physics

A mess of parts that is a mix between a mechanical and exploit-based machine. Modelled after an old single-barreled ATGM launcher found on some Cold War vehicles, and fires somewhat realistically.

The barrel is separate from the assembly to allow for easier use. If you want to use with the barrel, nudge those four parts by X-1.00.

--- USER MANUAL ---

[ ! ] It is important to follow the usage procedure to increase the chance of a successful missile launch.

( i ) n corresponds to the missile number.

FULL USE CYCLE:
0. Activate missile module (AG n; automatic for missiles 2-6)
1. Rotate barrel up (Trim to +1.00)
2. Ram missile into barrel (AG8 True)
3. Lock missile at highest point (LandingGear True and AG8 False)
4. Aim missile as required (Trim)
5. Launch missile (AG n+1)
6. Discard detacher (LandingGear False, Trim)
7. Go to {Step1}

[ ! ] Do not discard the used detacher into the chamber! Will cause jamming of loader.

RAW CONTROLS:
Trim Up - Barrel Elevation
Trim Down - Used Detacher Discarder Tool
AG8 - Missile Loader
LandingGear - Barrel Lock System
AGn - Release Missile For Loading
AGn+1 - Launch Missile

( i ) Controls were assigned in the way that would minimise human error the most.

    What is agn? I know it’s action group but what’s the difference between agn and agn+1?

    odd... ok then
    Even if the missile spazzes, its safe to rotate the barrel. It usually corrects any shaking.
    Remember to activate AG8 before rotating barrel.
    I have no idea what happened, you can send a video if you really want

    @GermanWarMachine it works fine for me
    - Maybe you are locking in the detacher too early. Wait until the detacher is at the highest point.
    - Maybe you accidentally fired a missile when the detacher isnt locked in yet
    - Maybe a used detacher went into the ramming chamber
    - Or of course mechanical systems arent 100% reliable, try again
