The Laser Designator is a device used primarily in combination with torpedos to guide them towards a target.

Basic information

  • Laser Designators need to hit a target in order for the torpedo laser sensor to update their fields.
  • The Laser Designator fits into the utility tool body 2 only.
  • Currently the Laser Designator functions without a powersupply.
  • Connecting the Laser Designator to a powersource will randomly reset its active field to 0.
  • A torpedo linked to a Laser Designator can use the aquired fieldinformation to guide itself towards the tip of the laser using yolol.

Device fields

YOLOL field description range
Active Turns the laser designator on/off 0 - 1
LaserLength The maximum length of the beam. Measured in meters. 0 - 1000
IdentifierId What torpedo laser sensors connect to when IdentifierId is the same. Both strings and numbers can be used.
TargetFound 1 if the designator is hitting a surface, otherwise 0. 0 - 1
