Laser Air Defense System

@Giotech Well, maybe I'll come up with something in the future

@IcEStaR Active Protective System. Protects tanks and military vehicles from flying projectiles close range

@Giotech What kind of system is this?

How bout making an APS system, its almost similar

@Thwarp The program is too simple and not capable of prioritizing, it just takes aim at the nearest target. You must have been misled by a comment in the program. The point is that there is a feature in the game - crafts that don't have the command module take damage from contact with the laser (which is a XML-modified rocket engine) once when the same craft that has the command module takes damage every tick. Because of this problem, the program turns the laser on and off many times to destroy crafts that don't have command parts.
Although it may work the way you said for some reason unknown to me, I just didn't give that option to that craft xD

Another act of desperation saw me in a B17 dropping 12 dumb bombs hoping to confuse the system enough for me to get out of range. I added a nice twist to the mission. 5 of the ten dumb bombs were complete duds while the other 5 were loaded with PETN and command chips.
The system did what you said it would by prioritizing, destroying those bombs with command chips while ignoring the duds.
And just when I was thinking I was gonna survive and almost out of range…….

@Jerba Hmm, did you use sliders for control? The slider values reset when switching to a different craft so I only used vizzy variables to control the drone. You can check out this drone here.

How did you get the vizzy to work remotely? I’ve been trying to make a target drone that automatically flys a path but all it does is the first two commands that launch it and then it stops running until I switch to it.

@Thwarp Thank you xD

Ya know what? I hate you now. 🤪
I have beaten every single area defense build folks have posted with Vizzy cruise missiles one way or another.
You come along with this system and I’m like “pffft! With enough time and I’ll blow it up.”
I tried adjusting the cruise missiles vizzy for every approach, speed (up to mach 1.5) and your build took em out each time.
So my last desperate act was to try a swarm of cruise missiles.
I concede my first ever losses!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ start build!

@RedBird Yes, air defense doesn't detect targets with a mass less than minMass

I feel like I'm being hunted by the whole entire AA'S system bruh I'm also downloading and test it with my multi mission drone come check it out!

@Felixhdz Thanks!

Wonderful. Nothing escapes him.

@TritonAerospace Thanks a lot!

@DreaPods amazing build, this is top tier air defense.

I love how it kept shooting the drone after it bounced off the ground.
