One thing I would highly suggest for internal guidance is to attach a radar or sonar bouys, as this limits the launcher to only one missile out at a time This can save you a lot of excess load preparation hassle as well as a very small amount of detection and tracking to boot

What is culling?

in 2024 and i found this really helpfull thank you

I sometimes wonder how much CO2 emission it would save if the game automatically built those walls for you

Yep! That's one of the best ways to improve your FPS in this game is by boxing everything up. It's a really good optimization solution considering you're going to build thousands and thousands of buildings on a normal playthrough

Given Culling is a staple of Open World games, this isn't surprising BUT it is welcome to know it is there, giving us frames and the GPU a break

With fires being a thing now, i wonder if IR guided missiles can lock onto blocks that are getting roasted?

where's part 2 a long time ago I heard someone made LUA torpedoes that went under ships and attacked directly from beneath basically the opposite of the one "like artillery" you mentioned

my problem is my Missles have 83 seconds of thrust but no matter the range they keep detonating about 20 feet before the target.. its my first craft and have not seen that issue in the 53 episodes ive seen before starting my first build.. like wth id be one hitting these test mauraders but can only get light frag damage... even cut frag heads

Hi, are you always going to do part 2 of Lua Guided Missiles on From the Depths??

Where's Part 2 ??

This might be late but i wanted to thank you for this tutorial, i am working on a new Missile AA platform and will use your code for the missiles, might add some other stuff later on

no part 2? sad face

i made a proximity fuse version for air targets: function Update(I) target_position = I:GetTargetInfo(0, 0).AimPointPosition target_velocity = I:GetTargetInfo(0, 0).Velocity proximity_radius = 10 -- Adjust this value to set the proximity radius time_threshold = 2 -- Adjust this value to set the time threshold for detonation after passing the target for t = 0, I:GetLuaTransceiverCount() - 1 do for m = 0, I:GetLuaControlledMissileCount(t) - 1 do missile_info = I:GetLuaControlledMissileInfo(t, m) missile_position = missile_info.Position missile_speed = Vector3.Magnitude(missile_info.Velocity) target_distance = Vector3.Distance(target_position, missile_position) target_vector = Vector3.Normalize(target_position - missile_position) relative_speed = missile_speed - Vector3.Dot(target_vector, target_velocity) lead_factor = 1.5 -- Adjust this value to control the amount of lead prediction = target_velocity * target_distance / relative_speed * lead_factor point = target_position + prediction I:SetLuaControlledMissileAimPoint(t, m, point.x, point.y, point.z) -- Check if the missile has passed the target and exceeded the time threshold if target_distance <= proximity_radius and I:GetTime() - missile_info.TimeSinceLaunch > time_threshold then -- Detonate the missile I:DetonateLuaControlledMissile(t, m) I:LogToHud("Missile detonated at proximity radius and time threshold") end end end end

Wait... It's all just a bunch of space dust?

A bit unfortunate that the asteroids aren't collidable, not that I was expecting them to be in this stage of development, but the fact that you can see them whizzing by is astounding.

As rocky as KSP2's launch is, I genuinely think they've knocket it out of the park when it comes to graphics, atmosphere and sound design.

Did you made this?

thanks for the video. very explicative.

Great video! The are two things that would be great to have tutorials on. They both stem from FtD targeting and guidance systems not taking into account water drag (for crams) nor gravity's altitude dependence. The first is tutorial is for semi ballistic or high altitude launched lau glide 'bombs' with the most difficult type effectively being a drone that acts as a interceptor decoy while getting into a good position and heading relative to the target for the most effective use of its payload of short range missiles or mines (example 1: A glide bomb with payload of short range one-turn single pixel AA missiles to set off enemy flares and get the AA missiles behind an enemy jet which is too far away for accurate vehicle based detection. Example 2: Glide bomb that looks at life-time vs time-to-target and computes whether to glide or dive, taking into account that the gravitational field strength and air resistance varies with altitude.). The second tutorial would be using lua to aim CRAM cannons

Great job explaining all that, thank you for taking the time.

Sadly spinners with props are no longer the way ;.;

Wow an actual tutorial without cuts or bs thanks

Can’t explain how helpful this was bro genuinely a good use of the blocks as you make that seem so easy to explain could you do general tutorials on everything please I’ve just got into the game and the videos online and the lack of online info is poor please do some

What game is this?

Part 2 when? XD Am currently trying to figure out how to take gravity into account for an orbiting missile. This vid certainly refreshed my memory on stuff like game tick length.

came back again hoping for a follow up and sad to see no followup.

getting a bow/stern to look good is probly one of hardest thing in ftd

Anyone notice that IR missiles just dont hit their targets? My IR missiles only have a hit rate of like 45% on stationary targets, worse if their moving.

Im programming in Unity. Helped a lot to understand. Thank you

Can I get some help? My ship keeps almost capsizing, it reaches like a 45 degree angle, but then it goes back. This causes it to quickly capsize when it takes some damage and it looks really wierd. How do I stop this?

using lead didnt work so i refunded fuk this

Great video

Great video!

I tested medium & small missiles vs fast over 150m/s small planes keep missed only few hit not good vs fast small planes only good vs big slow plane/airship under 110m/s & only worked small missiles vs under 110m/s small planes. Best laser & 1000m/s ballistic vs small fast planes over 150m/s. I used EMP small missiles vs under 110m/s small planes go BOOM! AI dead is awesome lol.

Can't wait for part 2

@11:35 That is where this video should of started.

Hey Scott, thnx for this video. Pretty please if you can do a next video on this subject, especially for "rain from above" code that you have on Pastebin. Thank you!

This is still very useful, thanks!

Still waiting for part 2

Description says impractical for combat use next tutorial but there is no other tutorial rip

Thanks bro 👌

Fantastic video, sir! Any idea when part 2 will released?

The fact that the shit at the start is even possible makes me sad about this game's physics.

thank you

Big thanks, very helpful

Gotta edit this down please!!! :) Or add timecodes to the description :)

Adding a pitch adjustment on propellers(its and option in the proppellers interface) to keep them pointed more towards the center of mass can also prevent wheelies. I usually keep mine no more then -5 so i dont send the proppellers out of the water but you might need to tweak it depending on how much thrust you have and the weight/balance of the ship.

Hey I was trying to make a middle that would work like a javelin and hits the top of the target can this be done and how should I do it?

I think the biggest problem with the laser pointer is that it bugs out constantly.
