2HGZ-Komodo

2HGZ – MV-8 Komodo UGV
Adds the MV-8 Komodo, a 15.5-tonne remotely operated tracked ground vehicle, to Arma Reforger. It comes with a handheld Komodo UGV Terminal that players use to control it, and a family of engineering and combat variants. It needs only vanilla Reforger and works alongside RHS and upcoming [REDACTED] mod.

Remote control
Equip the terminal (primary weapon slot) and press Insert, or use Link to Komodo on the vehicle. You take over its control unit and drive with the normal vehicle keys. At a standstill, A/D turns it on the spot.
Your body stays behind and can be killed. The link drops at 2.5 km (1.5 km without line of sight), when you die, when the vehicle is destroyed, or on End. When the link is lost, the vehicle brakes and shuts down.
Two fixed hull cameras, front and rear (Num 1), with zoom. Third person uses the normal vanilla vehicle camera.
The HUD shows link status, signal strength, distance, speed, camera and equipment. The terminal has a live screen and a menu with equipment pages. You can pair it with several Komodos and switch between them with PgUp/PgDn.
Operator keys: hold, hand over (the UGV drives back to you), 10 km/h limiter, lights. All keys can be rebound under Keybinds → Komodo UGV.
Two-player crew: a second player with their own paired terminal can take the gun while the first drives.
Variants
COBRA 15 m / 20 m: assault bridge launchers with staged, animated deployment and recovery.
VARAN 25 m: bridge launcher that adapts to the far bank. It measures the far bank and lays the bridge onto banks from 2.5 m lower to about 1.6 m higher, with manual tilt during the lay. If the bank is out of range, it refuses with a clear message.
Breacher Light: mine plough kit. It clears mines on contact, throws up berms of the ground you plough through, and leaves marked lanes. Includes smoke.
Breacher Heavy: full-width mine plough, lane markers and a Plofadder line charge that clears a lane through minefields. Includes smoke.
MANGART 30 (armed): 30 mm turret with coax, a front dozer blade and turret smoke (an 8-launcher smoke wall). It also has a pop-up twin launcher for homing rockets, with ARC (top-down) and DIRECT modes. You can designate a target and keep tracking and firing it while driving. An automatic LOKI gun on the roof engages nearby drones and helicopters by itself. It has no friend-or-foe check; a Game Master can switch it off.
Game Master
Place Komodos and set their faction under Attributes. Vanilla waypoints work (Move, Patrol, Follow, Defend, Search & Destroy, cycle), with vanilla AI driving: navmesh paths, obstacle avoidance and turning on the spot toward the route.
Vanilla Take Control drives and operates any Komodo with the full HUD and keys, with no signal range and no ammo limits. A player who is linked is put on hold and gets the vehicle back afterwards.
A command bar above the movement commands, and a command panel (Home) for bridges, ploughs, smoke, the line charge, blade, launcher, weapons, resupply and the LOKI override. The vanilla right-click menu stays short.
On the armed variant, the vanilla Suppress order makes it fire spread bursts over an area. The command bar adds DESIGNATE, AUTO FIRE, FIRE BURST and ATGM FIRE.
Also
Original models and textures with up to five levels of detail, original engine and track sounds, and in-game preview cards in the content browser.
Works in multiplayer and on dedicated servers: the linked client controls the vehicle, so driving is smooth.
