Arma 3 Virtual Arsenal Init

• 1Category:

1. Mirroring of pylons now works. I fixed the issue with it taking a long time to come to a stop when you do a rolling landing. Ive added a variant named F-35B with doubled IR, active radar, and passive radar sensor ranges, and doubled weapon ranges for the ARM missiles and A2A missiles, now it just.
2. Dear BSG Devs, I know some of you will find this suggestion goofy, but i'd like this game to have a 'Virtual Arsenal' mode (exactly like in ARMA3). Virtual Arsenal basically is a character, equipment, and weapon viewer where I can try all of the weapons, ammo, gears, optics, armors, etc.
3. The virtual arsenal will always show a weapon or equipment a player currently has on his character. In addition a player can load a loadout they previously saved that may have weapons and equipment you do not want them to have.
