Arma 3
ArmA3 Dragons
Suggestions
Max, love everything you do. One suggestion I would have would be to increase the dragon's movement speed. A squad of basic NATO units can destroy a dragon well before the dragon can reach them. I'm not sure how difficult it would be for the dragon's targeting, though

To attempt to fix this issue and replicated a dragon swooping in from far away, I utilized setVelocity and setVelocityModelSpace, but it appears that the AI script running this unit overwrites any new velocity commands, so I can't find a way to push them faster.

Edit: I did find that setAnimSpeedCoef helps the speed issue, though it makes the flapping animation hilariously fast, so its not an immersive solution at all.

It's a known problem, I have to work on the fly Animations to increase the speed.
Thanks for the suggestions and Help :steamhappy:

I tried again and again to increase the speed without success...but I thought of a trick....just to spawn the Dragon at 100 meters of altitude, and it'll arrive on the enemies from up, without give them the time to shoot it!
Seem like the ACE AI medical setting would affect the Dragons, make them too weak if you setting the ACE AI have low bullet resistance.

Maybe make a CBA addon setting that let player set the HP of the dragons?

The Dragons have a specific command in their Init function to increase their Armor, because if they have the armor config too strong the AI Units don't shoot them.
So maybe ACE stops that command...
About the CBA addon I don't know how it works....
