Description:
NOTICE: This is a heavy WIP and will probably not work as of yet!

This addon is a CCIP (continously computed impact point) solver for aircrafts in ArmA 3. It is a client side addon that only runs on clients. The addon calculates the approximate impact point of the currently selected weapon in the aircraft. It is an approximation, so there will be a small degree of error between the calculated impact point and the real impact point.

The script only calculates the impact point. There is just a crude cross on the HUD along with distance text to indicate the computed impact point. HUD development was never a focus of this project but that might change.

How does it work?
Approximation is done by using Euler's method to solve the projectile motion.
The following ammo types are supported more or less:
- MissileCore and its sub-types.
- BulletCore and its sub-types.
- BombCore and its sub-types.

Already configured vehicles:
Vanilla:
AH-9 Pawnee
A-164 Wipeout
To-199 Neophron
A-143 Buzzard

Additional third party addon support:
F/A-18 Super Hornet
F/A-18X Black Wasp
Su-35 S Flanker E
JAS39G
F-35C
Peral A-10C
STI A-10A


Installation:
Extract into the ArmA 3 Directory, by default this is located in:
32-Bit - C:\Program Files\Steam/Steamapps\Common\ArmA 3\
64-Bit - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam/Steamapps\Common\ArmA 3\
After extraction it should look like this:

Steam\Steamapps\Common\ArmA 3\@your_mod_folder_name\addons\

You can also use the "Arma 3 Alpha" folder in your "My Documents" folder. Your folder setup could than look like for example this:
mydocuments\Arma3 Alpha\@your_mod_folder_name1\addons\
mydocuments\Arma3 Alpha\@your_mod_folder_name2\addons\
mydocuments\Arma3 Alpha\@your_mod_folder_name2\addons\

When present place the "userconfig" folder into your game install folder, usually:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3".
You may already have "userconfig" folder from other addons and/or mods in which case it is safe to merge the contents from this archive.

You'll also need to add a Launch Parameter to Steam, in order to do so right-click on ArmA 3 Alpha and click Properties and then Set Launch Options. In the window that opens enter in -mod=@your_mod_folder_name
For using multiple mods you would then do so like this:

-mod=@mod_name;@mod_name2;@mod_name3;@mod_name4;@mod_name5

Note:
You can also use -nosplash to get rid of the splash art and intro videos.


And of course you can also enable and disable community made addons and mods through the in-game Options Expansions menu if you do not want to mess with startup parameters!

When the above information still does not provide you with enough to learn how to install custom addons and mods you can always ask in our Guide On Installing Mods.


Included files:

CCIP_I_Plane_Fighter_03_AA_F.pbo

CCIP_JS_JC_SU35.pbo
CCIP_OK_F_35C.pbo
CCIP_Peral_A10.pbo
CCIP_STI_A10.pbo


Usage:
There`s two functions for debugging:
(vehicle player) setVariable ["CCIP_DebugLine", true];//Enable line draw
(vehicle player) setVariable ["CCIP_DebugWeaponPos", true];//Spawn a sphere at the starting point

Configuring allowed weapons
In order to enable CCIP on a certain aircraft, you have to define all CCIP compatible weapons in a config for that vehicle. You can see examples within.
If you wish not to use CCIP with a certain vehicle just remove the vehicles specific PBO and bisign.
