Spotter (ground forces) be able to coop with I-TGT #57

Open SgtFoose opened 1 year ago

Describe the solution you'd like

Suggestion 1: I'd like to be able to have ground forces that can coop with the Firewill system (I-TGT)

  1. Ground forces add POI's
  2. Ground forces Designate Targets on the GPS

Maybe you can add a FIR rangefinder so the server admin have the option to blacklist the item if they don't like this feature. The Ground forces added marker should be inactive at the time of placement so the pilot can pick it from I-TGT and mark it as active target or not. Ideal, the ground forces have the option to mark it as "vehicle, troops, boat, moving target or building".

Suggestion 2: I'd would love to have notice (in air) of friendly troops near any GPS Marker or Laser Targets coming from the plane. So when a marker is active, you could mention something like:

This way it's easier for the pilot to decide which ornament he will deployed (e.g. SDB or GBU-10).

FIR SUGGESTION 1

firewill0 commented 1 year ago

For right now, I'm doing make a redesign(or refactoring) of internal I-TGT system because codes are quite a complicated for maintenance and adding new features. anyway, here's some my ideas what I thought before probably relate with your suggestion.

  1. data-link between aircraft and ground unit I-TGT will have button called "LINK", and It will place on MSG button position. It's a data-link toggle for receiving I-TGT target data from ground unit who have specific device. so If ground JTAC got device, and open the UI, pick the position from map, select some target type(like footmobile, victor, armored, building etc) and select aircraft what turn on LINK and press the send button. as result, I-TGT automatically receiving target information and store into target list with some message appear. of course, don't forget tell to the pilot about some "request air support and I've sent the target info via data-link.", however I'll add some notification feature to pilot when I-TGT received data.
  2. Danger-close check also will have button called "DCC" - Danger close check, will get 2 things work
    • for Map mode, press DCC when you seeing MAP screen, It will pick the position from map click and check any friendly around the picked position within certain radius.
    • for List mode, press DCC when you seeing List screen, It will select the target from target list and same thing to do.

hard to say exactly when these comes out, but I'm planning to do update in april.
