Global DETECTION_AREAS |
Detect units within the battle zone for a list of Wrapper.Groups detecting targets following (a) detection method(s), and will build a list (table) of Core.Set#SET_UNITs containing the Wrapper.Unit#UNITs detected. |
Detect units within the battle zone for a list of Wrapper.Groups detecting targets following (a) detection method(s), and will build a list (table) of Core.Set#SET_UNITs containing the Wrapper.Unit#UNITs detected.
The class is group the detected units within zones given a DetectedZoneRange parameter. A set with multiple detected zones will be created as there are groups of units detected.
## 4.1) Retrieve the Detected Unit Sets and Detected Zones
The methods to manage the DetectedItems[].Set(s) are implemented in Functional.Detection#DECTECTION_BASE and the methods to manage the DetectedItems[].Zone(s) are implemented in Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.
Retrieve the DetectedItems[].Set with the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.GetDetectedSet(). A Core.Set#SET_UNIT object will be returned.
Retrieve the formed Core.Zones as a result of the grouping the detected units within the DetectionZoneRange, use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.GetDetectionZones(). To understand the amount of zones created, use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.GetDetectionZoneCount(). If you want to obtain a specific zone from the DetectedZones, use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.GetDetectionZoneByID() with a given index.
## 4.4) Flare or Smoke detected units
Use the methods Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.FlareDetectedUnits() or Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.SmokeDetectedUnits() to flare or smoke the detected units when a new detection has taken place.
## 4.5) Flare or Smoke or Bound detected zones
Use the methods:
- Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.FlareDetectedZones() to flare in a color
- Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.SmokeDetectedZones() to smoke in a color
- Functional.Detection#DETECTION_AREAS.SmokeDetectedZones() to bound with a tire with a white flag
the detected zones when a new detection has taken place.
Global DETECTION_BASE |
Defines the core functions to administer detected objects. |
Defines the core functions to administer detected objects.
The DETECTION_BASE class will detect objects within the battle zone for a list of Wrapper.Groups detecting targets following (a) detection method(s).
DETECTION_BASE constructor
Construct a new DETECTION_BASE instance using the DETECTION_BASE.New() method.
Initialization
By default, detection will return detected objects with all the detection sensors available. However, you can ask how the objects were found with specific detection methods. If you use one of the below methods, the detection will work with the detection method specified. You can specify to apply multiple detection methods.
Use the following functions to report the objects it detected using the methods Visual, Optical, Radar, IRST, RWR, DLINK:
- DETECTION_BASE.InitDetectVisual(): Detected using Visual.
- DETECTION_BASE.InitDetectOptical(): Detected using Optical.
- DETECTION_BASE.InitDetectRadar(): Detected using Radar.
- DETECTION_BASE.InitDetectIRST(): Detected using IRST.
- DETECTION_BASE.InitDetectRWR(): Detected using RWR.
- DETECTION_BASE.InitDetectDLINK(): Detected using DLINK.
Filter detected units based on category of the unit
Filter the detected units based on Unit.Category using the method DETECTION_BASE.FilterCategories(). The different values of Unit.Category can be:
- Unit.Category.AIRPLANE
- Unit.Category.GROUND_UNIT
- Unit.Category.HELICOPTER
- Unit.Category.SHIP
- Unit.Category.STRUCTURE
Multiple Unit.Category entries can be given as a table and then these will be evaluated as an OR expression.
Example to filter a single category (Unit.Category.AIRPLANE).
DetectionObject:FilterCategories( Unit.Category.AIRPLANE )
Example to filter multiple categories (Unit.Category.AIRPLANE, Unit.Category.HELICOPTER). Note the {}.
DetectionObject:FilterCategories( { Unit.Category.AIRPLANE, Unit.Category.HELICOPTER } )
Radar Blur - use to make the radar less exact, e.g. for WWII scenarios
- DETECTION_BASE.SetRadarBlur(): Set the radar blur to be used.
DETECTION_ derived classes group the detected units into a DetectedItems[] list
DETECTION_BASE derived classes build a list called DetectedItems[], which is essentially a first later of grouping of detected units. Each DetectedItem within the DetectedItems[] list contains a SET_UNIT object that contains the detected units that belong to that group.
Derived classes will apply different methods to group the detected units. Examples are per area, per quadrant, per distance, per type. See further the derived DETECTION classes on which grouping methods are currently supported.
Various methods exist how to retrieve the grouped items from a DETECTION_BASE derived class:
- The method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.GetDetectedItems() retrieves the DetectedItems[] list.
- A DetectedItem from the DetectedItems[] list can be retrieved using the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.GetDetectedItem( DetectedItemIndex ). Note that this method returns a DetectedItem element from the list, that contains a Set variable and further information about the DetectedItem that is set by the DETECTION_BASE derived classes, used to group the DetectedItem.
- A DetectedSet from the DetectedItems[] list can be retrieved using the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.GetDetectedSet( DetectedItemIndex ). This method retrieves the Set from a DetectedItem element from the DetectedItem list (DetectedItems[ DetectedItemIndex ].Set ).
Visual filters to fine-tune the probability of the detected objects
By default, DCS World will return any object that is in LOS and within "visual reach", or detectable through one of the electronic detection means. That being said, the DCS World detection algorithm can sometimes be unrealistic. Especially for a visual detection, DCS World is able to report within 1 second a detailed detection of a group of 20 units (including types of the units) that are 10 kilometers away, using only visual capabilities. Additionally, trees and other obstacles are not accounted during the DCS World detection.
Therefore, an additional (optional) filtering has been built into the DETECTION_BASE class, that can be set for visual detected units. For electronic detection, this filtering is not applied, only for visually detected targets.
The following additional filtering can be applied for visual filtering:
- A probability factor per kilometer distance.
- A probability factor based on the alpha angle between the detected object and the unit detecting. A detection from a higher altitude allows for better detection than when on the ground.
- Define a probability factor for "cloudy zones", which are zones where forests or villages are located. In these zones, detection will be much more difficult. The mission designer needs to define these cloudy zones within the mission, and needs to register these zones in the DETECTION_ objects adding a probability factor per zone.
I advise however, that, when you first use the DETECTION derived classes, that you don't use these filters. Only when you experience unrealistic behavior in your missions, these filters could be applied.
Distance visual detection probability
Upon a visual detection, the further away a detected object is, the less likely it is to be detected properly. Also, the speed of accurate detection plays a role.
A distance probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a linear extrapolated probability over 10 km distance.
For example, if a probability factor of 0.6 (60%) is given, the extrapolated probabilities over 15 kilometers would like like: 1 km: 96%, 2 km: 92%, 3 km: 88%, 4 km: 84%, 5 km: 80%, 6 km: 76%, 7 km: 72%, 8 km: 68%, 9 km: 64%, 10 km: 60%, 11 km: 56%, 12 km: 52%, 13 km: 48%, 14 km: 44%, 15 km: 40%.
Note that based on this probability factor, not only the detection but also the type of the unit will be applied!
Use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.SetDistanceProbability() to set the probability factor upon a 10 km distance.
Alpha Angle visual detection probability
Upon a visual detection, the higher the unit is during the detecting process, the more likely the detected unit is to be detected properly. A detection at a 90% alpha angle is the most optimal, a detection at 10% is less and a detection at 0% is less likely to be correct.
A probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a progressive extrapolated probability if the target would be detected at a 0° angle.
For example, if a alpha angle probability factor of 0.7 is given, the extrapolated probabilities of the different angles would look like: 0°: 70%, 10°: 75,21%, 20°: 80,26%, 30°: 85%, 40°: 89,28%, 50°: 92,98%, 60°: 95,98%, 70°: 98,19%, 80°: 99,54%, 90°: 100%
Use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.SetAlphaAngleProbability() to set the probability factor if 0°.
Cloudy Zones detection probability
Upon a visual detection, the more a detected unit is within a cloudy zone, the less likely the detected unit is to be detected successfully. The Cloudy Zones work with the ZONE_BASE derived classes. The mission designer can define within the mission zones that reflect cloudy areas where detected units may not be so easily visually detected.
Use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.SetZoneProbability() to set for a defined number of zones, the probability factors.
Note however, that the more zones are defined to be "cloudy" within a detection, the more performance it will take from the DETECTION_BASE to calculate the presence of the detected unit within each zone. Especially for ZONE_POLYGON, try to limit the amount of nodes of the polygon!
Typically, this kind of filter would be applied for very specific areas where a detection needs to be very realistic for AI not to detect so easily targets within a forrest or village rich area.
Accept / Reject detected units
DETECTION_BASE can accept or reject successful detections based on the location of the detected object, if it is located in range or located inside or outside of specific zones.
Detection acceptance of within range limit
A range can be set that will limit a successful detection for a unit. Use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.SetAcceptRange() to apply a range in meters till where detected units will be accepted.
local SetGroup = SET_GROUP:New():FilterPrefixes( "FAC" ):FilterStart() -- Build a SetGroup of Forward Air Controllers.
-- Build a detect object.
local Detection = DETECTION_UNITS:New( SetGroup )
-- This will accept detected units if the range is below 5000 meters.
Detection:SetAcceptRange( 5000 )
-- Start the Detection.
Detection:Start()
Detection acceptance if within zone(s).
Specific ZONE_BASE object(s) can be given as a parameter, which will only accept a detection if the unit is within the specified ZONE_BASE object(s). Use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.SetAcceptZones() will accept detected units if they are within the specified zones.
local SetGroup = SET_GROUP:New():FilterPrefixes( "FAC" ):FilterStart() -- Build a SetGroup of Forward Air Controllers.
-- Search fo the zones where units are to be accepted.
local ZoneAccept1 = ZONE:New( "AcceptZone1" )
local ZoneAccept2 = ZONE:New( "AcceptZone2" )
-- Build a detect object.
local Detection = DETECTION_UNITS:New( SetGroup )
-- This will accept detected units by Detection when the unit is within ZoneAccept1 OR ZoneAccept2.
Detection:SetAcceptZones( { ZoneAccept1, ZoneAccept2 } )
-- Start the Detection.
Detection:Start()
Detection rejection if within zone(s).
Specific ZONE_BASE object(s) can be given as a parameter, which will reject detection if the unit is within the specified ZONE_BASE object(s). Use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.SetRejectZones() will reject detected units if they are within the specified zones. An example of how to use the method is shown below.
local SetGroup = SET_GROUP:New():FilterPrefixes( "FAC" ):FilterStart() -- Build a SetGroup of Forward Air Controllers.
-- Search fo the zones where units are to be rejected.
local ZoneReject1 = ZONE:New( "RejectZone1" )
local ZoneReject2 = ZONE:New( "RejectZone2" )
-- Build a detect object.
local Detection = DETECTION_UNITS:New( SetGroup )
-- This will reject detected units by Detection when the unit is within ZoneReject1 OR ZoneReject2.
Detection:SetRejectZones( { ZoneReject1, ZoneReject2 } )
-- Start the Detection.
Detection:Start()
Detection of Friendlies Nearby
Use the method Functional.Detection#DETECTION_BASE.SetFriendliesRange() to set the range what will indicate when friendlies are nearby a DetectedItem. The default range is 6000 meters. For air detections, it is advisory to use about 30.000 meters.
DETECTION_BASE is a Finite State Machine
Various Events and State Transitions can be tailored using DETECTION_BASE.
DETECTION_BASE States
- Detecting: The detection is running.
- Stopped: The detection is stopped.
DETECTION_BASE Events
- Start: Start the detection process.
- Detect: Detect new units.
- Detected: New units have been detected.

Upon a visual detection, the higher the unit is during the detecting process, the more likely the detected unit is to be detected properly.
A detection at a 90% alpha angle is the most optimal, a detection at 10% is less and a detection at 0% is less likely to be correct.
A probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a progressive extrapolated probability if the target would be detected at a 0° angle.
For example, if a alpha angle probability factor of 0.7 is given, the extrapolated probabilities of the different angles would look like: 0°: 70%, 10°: 75,21%, 20°: 80,26%, 30°: 85%, 40°: 89,28%, 50°: 92,98%, 60°: 95,98%, 70°: 98,19%, 80°: 99,54%, 90°: 100%

Defined in:
Parameters:
DetectedItem to calculate the threat level for.
DetectedItem
Return value:
Upon a visual detection, the further away a detected object is, the less likely it is to be detected properly.
Also, the speed of accurate detection plays a role. A distance probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a linear extrapolated probability over 10 km distance. For example, if a probability factor of 0.6 (60%) is given, the extrapolated probabilities over 15 kilometers would like like: 1 km: 96%, 2 km: 92%, 3 km: 88%, 4 km: 84%, 5 km: 80%, 6 km: 76%, 7 km: 72%, 8 km: 68%, 9 km: 64%, 10 km: 60%, 11 km: 56%, 12 km: 52%, 13 km: 48%, 14 km: 44%, 15 km: 40%.

This will allow during friendly search any recce or detection unit to be also considered as a friendly.
By default, recce aren't considered friendly, because that would mean that a recce would be also an attacking friendly, and this is wrong. However, in a CAP situation, when the CAP is part of an EWR network, the CAP is also an attacker. This, this method allows to register for a detection the CAP unit name prefixes to be considered CAP.

Upon a visual detection, the higher the unit is during the detecting process, the more likely the detected unit is to be detected properly.
A detection at a 90% alpha angle is the most optimal, a detection at 10% is less and a detection at 0% is less likely to be correct.
A probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a progressive extrapolated probability if the target would be detected at a 0° angle.
For example, if a alpha angle probability factor of 0.7 is given, the extrapolated probabilities of the different angles would look like: 0°: 70%, 10°: 75,21%, 20°: 80,26%, 30°: 85%, 40°: 89,28%, 50°: 92,98%, 60°: 95,98%, 70°: 98,19%, 80°: 99,54%, 90°: 100%

Return value:
Upon a visual detection, the further away a detected object is, the less likely it is to be detected properly.
Also, the speed of accurate detection plays a role. A distance probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a linear extrapolated probability over 10 km distance. For example, if a probability factor of 0.6 (60%) is given, the extrapolated probabilities over 15 kilometers would like like: 1 km: 96%, 2 km: 92%, 3 km: 88%, 4 km: 84%, 5 km: 80%, 6 km: 76%, 7 km: 72%, 8 km: 68%, 9 km: 64%, 10 km: 60%, 11 km: 56%, 12 km: 52%, 13 km: 48%, 14 km: 44%, 15 km: 40%.

This will allow during friendly search any recce or detection unit to be also considered as a friendly.
By default, recce aren't considered friendly, because that would mean that a recce would be also an attacking friendly, and this is wrong. However, in a CAP situation, when the CAP is part of an EWR network, the CAP is also an attacker. This, this method allows to register for a detection the CAP unit name prefixes to be considered CAP.

Upon a visual detection, the higher the unit is during the detecting process, the more likely the detected unit is to be detected properly.
A detection at a 90% alpha angle is the most optimal, a detection at 10% is less and a detection at 0% is less likely to be correct.
A probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a progressive extrapolated probability if the target would be detected at a 0° angle.
For example, if a alpha angle probability factor of 0.7 is given, the extrapolated probabilities of the different angles would look like: 0°: 70%, 10°: 75,21%, 20°: 80,26%, 30°: 85%, 40°: 89,28%, 50°: 92,98%, 60°: 95,98%, 70°: 98,19%, 80°: 99,54%, 90°: 100%

This will allow during friendly search any recce or detection unit to be also considered as a friendly.
By default, recce aren't considered friendly, because that would mean that a recce would be also an attacking friendly, and this is wrong. However, in a CAP situation, when the CAP is part of an EWR network, the CAP is also an attacker. This, this method allows to register for a detection the CAP unit name prefixes to be considered CAP.

Upon a visual detection, the higher the unit is during the detecting process, the more likely the detected unit is to be detected properly.
A detection at a 90% alpha angle is the most optimal, a detection at 10% is less and a detection at 0% is less likely to be correct.
A probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a progressive extrapolated probability if the target would be detected at a 0° angle.
For example, if a alpha angle probability factor of 0.7 is given, the extrapolated probabilities of the different angles would look like: 0°: 70%, 10°: 75,21%, 20°: 80,26%, 30°: 85%, 40°: 89,28%, 50°: 92,98%, 60°: 95,98%, 70°: 98,19%, 80°: 99,54%, 90°: 100%

DetectedItem
Return value:
Upon a visual detection, the further away a detected object is, the less likely it is to be detected properly.
Also, the speed of accurate detection plays a role. A distance probability factor between 0 and 1 can be given, that will model a linear extrapolated probability over 10 km distance. For example, if a probability factor of 0.6 (60%) is given, the extrapolated probabilities over 15 kilometers would like like: 1 km: 96%, 2 km: 92%, 3 km: 88%, 4 km: 84%, 5 km: 80%, 6 km: 76%, 7 km: 72%, 8 km: 68%, 9 km: 64%, 10 km: 60%, 11 km: 56%, 12 km: 52%, 13 km: 48%, 14 km: 44%, 15 km: 40%.
