Problem with goals about detecting mines with HFS

FERdeBOER · 02-14-07, 12:39 PM

Hello all.

I'm making a mission and tried to make a goal on wich you have to detect a number of mines with the High Frequency Sonar, but when I tested it I see that no matter what I make, the game doesn't count that as a detection. And I mark them.

I also made tests with only one mine... then with a submarine... seems that the game doesn't count marking things on HFS as a detection, despite there is the option in the doctrine language.

I know it's not the only thing that doesn't work as it should to, but is the first time I deal with this in particular, so I'm asking about possible solutions (if they're exist).

... or maybe I have to forget that idea and make other thing... like crossing the minefield or get closer than xx...

Thanks in advance.

HFS really doesn't count as detection, but that is more of an interface issue. To have them 'detected' as per mission scripting, you need to use another sensor (like MF active) to detect them.
