Dhr's bomb drop prediction script

This script will point the camera at where a bomb and/or any falling object should fall to, use this to carpet bomb your enemies into dust!! or... ya know... something boooorrrrinnnggg like dropping a supply crate or something.

NOTE: Large update released, check change log for details

Features:
Two targeting modes: Vehicle height mode and raycast mode.

Vehicle height mode uses how far off the ground the vehicle is to target. This is the defualt setting. This setting is only accurate when you are on relatively flat ground

Raycast mode: This will figure out how far away you are from where the camera is pointing. To activate this you need to input an arguement. This is better for rough ground, but can be finnicky and only checks whenever a raycast hits, which, depending on the distance might add a few seconds of delay before the bomb sight is perfectly on its target. This also adds a bit of weirdness when quickly changing heights but isn't to bad.


The bomb predictor does not take into count:

Any movement other than straight foward motion.


How to use:

1.
You need a hinge facing downwards from the craft. Name this hinge "Bomb Sight Rotor"
Place a camera (Or multiple) on the hinge. Name this "Bomb Sight"
Have a control seat or station or cockpit or whatever pointing towards the front of the ship. Name this "Control Seat"

2.
Now, you add the script. To change the variable for the script, go into the edit menu, up the top should be some variables and options to change it.
To switch between the vehicle height (standard) and raycast you must run an argument to the programmable block, called "Switch," this will then switch between the two, and will confirm by showing it in the side bar of the block.

3.
For the targeting to work properly, you must be flying straight towards your target, with no rotation or sideways movement.
