VTO - Improved Grenades

v 1.0.1 - by Reezo

[www.paypal.com]


# DESCRIPTION
This mod improves the behavior of hand grenades and 40mm HE rounds by re-working their effects in the kill zone around the blast and adding improved calculations according to the proximity and position to structures and buildings. Line-of-sight is also taken into account to handle damage dealt by shrapnel with a particular attention, again, to confined spaces.

This mod was created after noticing that, especially in the Vanilla campaign, some enemies were not being killed by grenades that were clearly exploding near them. Grenade hits suffered by the player were perfectly fine but those thrown by the player to the AI was feeling unrealistic. This mods fixes this and makes grenades as lethal as they should be in their kill zone while also improving their behavior in confined spaces, making them very fun and effective to use to for room clearing and CQC.

This mod works automatically. That's all you need.

# INSTALLATION
> From Steam Workshop
Subscribing to the mod will let Steam do everything automatically for you via the Steam Workshop updater and installer.

> Manually
Unpack the folder '@VTO_ig' from the downloaded archive into your Arma 3 installation. Add the mod to your mod parameters sequence using your favorite launcher or by adding '-mod=@VTO_ig'. 'bikey' files are provided, you can copy the file from the @VTO_ig\Keys folder to the Keys folder in your Arma 3 root. Server owners and admins can use the provided bikey to ensure authenticity checks in your server(s) if necessary.


# REQUIREMENTS
This mod does not require any other mods to operate but if you are not using @SUPER_Flash (a flashbang mod) you can delete the VTO_ig_compatibilitySUPERFlash.pbo files. I know I will get a lot of messages from people who will get a warning message for a non-present mod and this will automatically tell me how many folks have not read this file. Masterful.
