Scud has made a nice looking Birddog for all of us who likes 'Nam -scenarios.

Now, all i need is a script which let's me call an aistrike (preferably from A-1 Skyraider from Footmunch http://ofp.gamezone.cz/news/pics/sr_2.jpg )
1. The planes would come to nearby and tell the Birddog to mark the target with Willie-Petes (wp-rockets that emit smoke)
2. After firing a rocket at enemy's positions planes would tell the Birddog that they see the target
3. They attack, dropping the payload onto enemys positions
4. DOOM!! ;D
Tell me, what do you think and can you make a script for it?

mmmm, i am not a super good scripter, all u would need to do is get the pos of the rocket right befor it blows up....then make another object go there...well there is my 2 cents ;D

I once did something like this but without external scripts - at a very basic levet all you need can be done with triggers and one of the versions of invisible targets (for example FOX's one). I dont know if its reallistic but i was thinking of night birddog mission and to see the smoke rockets in the darkness i swapped the ones from oryginal birddog addon with the ones from BAS Kiowa warrior (they light a little fire). If i have some time and if none of scripting-gurus didnt give you better answer i can give more info on how i did it.
