dzn Artillery Illumination

Description
Adds additional bright lightsource to flare/illumination artillery rounds making them really useful for NightOps.

Version: 2
Requirements: CBA_A3

Features:
- Make artillery flare/illum rounds useful for night operations
- Customizable color, intensity and light spot radius for mortars (82mm) and howitzers (105+ mm)
- MP-compatible and server-side only (not necessary to have mod on each client)
- Zeus compatible: (vanilla): Modules - Flares - Mortar/Howitzer Illumination modules; (Achilles) Spawn - Spawn Effects - Mortar/Howitzer Illumination; uses same color/intensity/range settings as fired rounds), requires mod to be installed on Zeus client.

Usage:
- Install the mod to your client OR dedicated server only
- Check mod settings in the ((Settings -> Addon Options -> dzn Artillery Illumination))
- (optional) update the list of the mortar/howitzer classes that should be processed by mod; in format @Class1, @Class2, …, @ClassN (root/parent classes allowed, e.g. StaticMortar)
- Get in a mortar, select flare/illum round and shoot. Wait for round ignition and nightscape become visible without NVG!

Notes:
UGL flare grenades are not in the scope of the mod. Use ALIAScartoons’s flare fix script for it (result is pretty same) - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=778433432

Cannot figure out how to add the class into the settings. I want the Sholef to have the rounds, yet putting it's class in the settings "B_MBT_01_arty_F" does not work. So I am guessing that I am doing something wrong, but cannot figure out what.

Just wondering if this includes Global Mobilization flares?

Makes flares MUCH brighter to where you can actually see the illuminated area. Great mod

@ColOddball27
Did you install and run mod on dedicated server?

When I try and use it the spawn effects to drop these with Achillies it dosent work for some reason on my Units Dedicated Server but when I try to use it in a MP Testing environment on my own machine it will spawn fine from the zeus menu.

Small update.
+ Mortar Illumination (x3) module - deploy illumination round each 45 seconds (3 times total)
^ Infinite flare is used, so flare won't disappear mid-air on vanilla
^ Default Intensity is changed to 10

Investigation done - for Achiles users - find Mortar/Howitzer illumination at [Spawn - Spawn Effects]
