are there option to disable the object dummy (grenades,etc) i think the autonomous mode is broken becuase the alt meter is blocked by the object hence why it keep increasing altitude, maybe it would be nice if the object is invisible during it being attached or just hide it altogether (i would prefer autonomous mode worked rather than cosmetic views.

Mavic 3* not Mavick Uav
Will there be an option to remove the initialization message when you start a mission?

weird error, when I put a warhead on the drone it is actively in the shooting animation.

@victor, Please check if it happens with all other mods disabled in the editor. In general we use it on modifeid Exile server and it works fine, so it could be related to some additional simulation/optimisation settings of the server or mod.

After dropping one munition of any kind, the function seems to break and all future munitions we try to drop just freeze in the air and do nothing. This is on an antistasi ultimate UPNP server. Any advice?

@solusun Left CTRL + RMB

This mod is amazing. You did a great job with it
Nate.The.Great 7 Aug, 2024 @ 9:24am 
I don’t know if it’s because of the mod or something conflicting, but when I give the darter a autonomous waypoint it just keeps going straight up, about half of the greandes I try turn into vanilla grenades, but the kamikaze and vog from rhs worked fine, over all not bad

Hello cool mod, how do you aim the drone camera downwards while flying it simultaneously?

Having the same problem as Sandman & SUSOVALORD, with or without ACE
Sandman 8 Jun, 2024 @ 4:14pm 
Had the same bug as SUSOVALORD. No matter what type of grenade I attached (WP, incendiary, etc.), when it dropped it became just another vanilla grenade, with vanilla grenade time delay, detonation and effects. Had a little better luck with the Titan AT missile, perhaps because it is SACLOS guided instead of a beam rider, but the conditions had to be nearly perfect, and it may have helped (not certain) that I ranged the target with the T key before launch

@Snake Only one

great mod, how many granades can be attached to an AR2 Darter at once ?

i mean, before the AR2 Darter needs to go back and pickup more explosives.
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 8 May, 2024 @ 11:48am 
@Darayavaush Where can I find Mini Harpy? Please also check with the latest version if anything improved, ammo should explode better now.

@SSG not sure yet, for now, I leave it as it is
Darayavaush 7 Mar, 2024 @ 10:46am 
Mini Harpy problems!
The most important problem is the flight control is impossibly complex. The UAV constantly shakes in flight, regardless of altitude and speed, which makes it impossible to direct the UAV to a target manually.
Darayavaush 7 Mar, 2024 @ 10:38am 
The mod is good, but there are many nuances!
1. Incorrect behavior of laser-guided missiles. When targeting and launching a missile with a UAV, instead of flying along the laser, they fly straight.
2. The laser designator on the AR-2X, when locking on a target, is aimed only at one specific point on the target. (it should be possible to adjust the laser). For example, if the target is a tank, due to the difference in attack angles, I will not always be able to hit the target, since the only UAV target (with target acquisition) is the top of the tank turret, and only one point is selected for all buildings.
Very often, when locking onto a target, the UAV ends up in the tracks or under the tank.
I’ll write separately about Mini Harpy.
SUSOVALORD 16 Jan, 2024 @ 4:30pm 
also noticed: when i attached a impact kind of grenade it will immediately become a vanilla grenade, i think it might have something to do with the newest ace update
SUSOVALORD 16 Jan, 2024 @ 4:23pm 
hi, whatever i attached on the drone it will become a vanilla grenade when going off, any fix please?
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 9 Jan, 2024 @ 9:44am 
@Awesometony This mod shouldn't affect it in any way, disable other mods and check. Also, a UAV terminal must match UAV faction (there are terminals and UAVs for different factions).
Awesometony 9 Jan, 2024 @ 3:30am 
why can't i attach terminal to the UAV in arsenals mode, i have try every terminals in it but still don't work. pls help
SSG 8 Jan, 2024 @ 7:50am 
Hi, sorry for bothering, noticed that when dropping some certain launcher ammo like this mod , the rocket engine is started with warhead pointing forward, and this would result in the warhead flying somewhere horizontally...is this intended? thanks!
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 6 Jan, 2024 @ 3:35am 
@SSG Looks like Arma 3 bug, as a temporary solution please disable drone autonomous mode.
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 6 Jan, 2024 @ 3:34am 
@CG-Delta that was fixed
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 29 Dec, 2023 @ 8:21am 
I recommend to check my new mod related to UAVs too: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3125837686

Where can I find the RKG-3 grenade mod?
Kolovrax715x 11 Dec, 2023 @ 7:08am 
I noticed an issue. I use RHS. The impact granades like RGN RGO and the RKG-3 can be attched to the drone but they dont explode.
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 3 Dec, 2023 @ 5:13am 
@[SMG] BIG GUY FIXED
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 3 Dec, 2023 @ 5:13am 
@Kolvorax I'm not creating ammo mods or adding new ammo via this mod, but the support for other mods that add that is already added.
Kolovrax715x 22 Nov, 2023 @ 2:58pm 
Can you add the rkg 3 anti tank grenade to drop it on tanks?
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 17 Nov, 2023 @ 11:25am 
@CG-Delta So far I've encountered a recurring issue with the IRStrobe (IR Grenade) in Arma, which appears to be due to a bug. This bug prevents the game from providing accurate information for certain types of grenades. In the event of this issue, the mod defaults to a standard model type. However, there's a possibility that the object dropped in-game will transform into the item you initially intended to attach.
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 17 Nov, 2023 @ 11:23am 
@[SMG] BIG GUY Done, added support for all launchers ammo, all mods supported
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 12 Nov, 2023 @ 5:40am 
@CG-Delta Then it's a bug, noted.
CG-Delta 11 Nov, 2023 @ 1:33pm 
"- ability to attach any throwable held by a player to drone"
It's a bit misleading to state this when any thing you attach gets transformed into one of two possible things: std HE grenade or GL HE round.
BIG GUY 11 Nov, 2023 @ 11:27am 
RHS
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 11 Nov, 2023 @ 11:15am 
@[SMG] BIG GUY, sure what mod?
BIG GUY 11 Nov, 2023 @ 11:04am 
can you make GP-25 VOG grenades compatible to be attached to the drone?
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 8 Nov, 2023 @ 8:18am 
@Potts2023 What kind of? Is there an ammo mortar round item in the game?
Potts2023 6 Nov, 2023 @ 6:39pm 
Mortar support?
NF_F16 6 Nov, 2023 @ 2:24pm 
It doesn't show up on the vanilla menu idk why
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 6 Nov, 2023 @ 11:21am 
@NF_F16 Also please try disabling all mods beside this mod, then retry.
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 6 Nov, 2023 @ 11:18am 
@NF_F16 What if you execute the action via the standard vanilla Scroll Menu?
NF_F16 6 Nov, 2023 @ 8:16am 
My interaction menu is also enabled so idk what seems to be the issue :(
NF_F16 6 Nov, 2023 @ 8:15am 
Same problem like @Unknown, it doesn't want to attach the grenades nor the grenade launcher ammo, thinking this is a bug with ACE
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 5 Nov, 2023 @ 3:35pm 
@Sam added support for all underbarrel grenade launchers ammo
Sam 21 Oct, 2023 @ 9:31am 
Can you please add support for 40mm grenades? Vanilla granades don`t have impact fuse so they explode mid in the air...
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 20 Sep, 2023 @ 12:49pm 
Just switch to secondary camera as pilot of drone, using ctrl + rmb afaik
stlns 19 Sep, 2023 @ 12:01pm 
how did you make such a convenient camera on the throne so that you can look down and fly?
nerexis | nmilsim.wordpress.com  [author] 7 Sep, 2023 @ 11:54am 
@Unknown It will attach the currently selected throwable, change to grenade using CTRL+G then try to attach
