Idea is that since ECM doesnt block Seismic sensors in TT we could add a module. TT mechs have standard seismic modules... like how we can hear mechs coming.


If we added a module that would toggle the mini map to a seismic passive detectiion that would show a line coming radiating from center showing seismic impacts. given a 35t moving at 120 would hit the ground with each step harder then a 100t moving 38kph it would not be practical to know the tonnage from the seismic. It also would not have IFF(friend & foe) Also would not detect shut down

I see this working within the code of the game engine and doable. Question is what do YOU think

Don't know if coding would allow jump jets to allow you to disappear from seismic though

You could easily make it so moving mechs just make pings on the radar, and the pings get marked as certain mechs once id'd.

The pings however would only appear while the mech is moving, so someone standing still would be invisible to this nlos system.

That would be a cool module.

you can't hear mechs coming?
You need a better sound system. I hear mechs before I see them most the time, only need to see my radar to know if its a friend (blue) or enemy (nothing on radar).

You can hear mechs comming

[Uller Phrost]

yes you can hear which does give me a basis to think the coding wouldnt be diffecult
