CODEX - DRONE FPV HAMMER

ENGLISH
CODEX - DRONE FPV HAMMER
Two offensive FPVs for Arma Reforger, built on Realistic Combat Drones (RCD), with an original detailed model, visible-unit detection HUD and assisted target tracking.

HAMMER RPG uses RCD's impact RPG warhead. HAMMER C4 has a flat M112 charge under the rear of the chassis, the game's M112 explosion effect and 1 m proximity detonation only during LOCK. Both variants appear in compatible US, USSR, FIA and WCS NATO/RU arsenals, subject to mission filters, rank and resources.

HUD: allies green, hostile vehicles purple, hostile infantry yellow, civilians blue; unidentified infantry remains grey. Vehicles without a faction or with neutral affiliation count as hostile for this addon's detection and LOCK, without changing the mission's factions. Allied vehicles remain friendly. Frames highlight the selected/locked target. Labels below frames, colour legends and button instructions have been removed. Flight mode, speed, camera, zoom/night vision and relevant target/link information remain. The addon's interface is in English.

LOCK: the configurable laser action selects the visible hostile frame closest to the screen centre, within 1,000 m. The same target is retained, including moving targets. LOCK automatically arms the charge. Shared camera/flight direction, progressive steering and temporary manual corrections allow the pilot to adjust the approach; releasing corrections returns towards the target. LOCK has no added fixed speed cap.
LOCK starts with full throttle held automatically. ONLY full braking releases this hold; partial braking does not. Full acceleration re-engages it. The laser action cancels LOCK.

CONTROLS: the native warhead-arming action only arms/disarms the charge. The drone grenade-release action manually detonates an ARMED charge, including during LOCK. These are separate actions; arming no longer causes an explosion. C4 proximity at 1 m remains active only while locked and armed.
ACRO/STABILIZED: configurable in Realistic Drones > Controls, "Toggle ACRO/STAB (HAMMER)". Default C. Stabilized flight is not a stationary-only mode: its tilt limit is increased to 55 degrees and its horizontal speed profile to 25 m/s (90 km/h), retaining native lift compensation. Diagonal commands are bounded; actual speed depends on flight conditions.

CAMERA: starts at +30 degrees; manual range -90 to +90 using SAL CameraPitch. LOCK transitions smoothly towards +70, then reduces the angle with remaining distance to reach 0 at 10 m. Native RCD zoom, night vision, reception effects and flight controls are retained.
The normal map key opens a fullscreen map above the drone HUD and forces stabilization at 50% throttle. Press again to close and return to ACRO. No position teleport/freeze is used.

Detection depends on visibility; tracking does not guarantee an impact. Terrain, obstacles, movement and reception still matter. Original chassis and electronics, reinforced collisions and RCD damage.
Requires RCD: 65AD60E204191D37. WCS arsenals require their usual dependencies. Independent project, not affiliated with RCD's authors. Game mechanics only.

FRANÇAIS
Deux FPV offensifs sur base RCD : HAMMER RPG à impact et HAMMER C4 avec M112 à plat sous l'arrière du châssis. C4 : proximité à 1 m uniquement en LOCK et charge armée, vérifiée aussi entre deux positions. Arsenaux US/USSR/FIA/WCS NATO/RU compatibles, selon les filtres, grades et ressources.

HUD anglophone épuré : alliés verts, véhicules ennemis violets, infanterie ennemie jaune, civils bleus. Les véhicules neutres/sans faction deviennent des cibles ennemies pour ce mod ; les alliés restent alliés. Plus de textes sous les cadres, de légendes ni de consignes de touches.

LOCK à 1 000 m sur le cadre ennemi le plus proche du centre. Armement automatique, suivi de cible mobile, corrections manuelles temporaires puis retour progressif vers la cible. Pas de plafond de vitesse ajouté au LOCK. Gaz maintenus à fond : seul FREINER À FOND libère ce maintien ; ACCÉLÉRER À FOND le réactive. La touche laser annule le LOCK.
Touche d'armement : armer/désarmer uniquement. Touche de largage de grenade du drone : explosion MANUELLE d'une charge ARMÉE, même en LOCK. ACRO/STABILIZED : touche configurable dans Realistic Drones > Controls, "Toggle ACRO/STAB (HAMMER)". C par défaut. Profil stabilisé : inclinaison 55°, vitesse horizontale 25 m/s, compensation native de portance.

Caméra de -90° à +90°, +30° au démarrage. LOCK vers +70° puis diminution jusqu'à 0° à 10 m. Zoom, vision nocturne et effets de réception RCD conservés. Touche carte habituelle : carte plein écran avec stabilisation forcée à 50 % ; second appui : fermeture et retour ACRO.
Repérage, suivi et préparation de trajectoire en jeu ; aucun impact garanti ni révélation systématique des unités cachées. Collisions renforcées, dégâts natifs RCD. Dépendance RCD 65AD60E204191D37 ; dépendances WCS habituelles. Projet indépendant destiné uniquement à Arma Reforger.
