Detailed Description

DtWeaponActuator is a simple model of a ballistic gun.

End User Description: It can be given ammo to load, and the command to fire. It creates a fire interaction and preps a detonation interaction at the appropriate time. A derived type of this component, the DtLauncherActuator is used to simulate missile launchers in VR-Forces.

The weapon actuator provides a generic model of a ballistic gun. The indirect fire actuator and launcher actuator are children of the weapon actuator. It accepts ammunition type, load status, and trigger inputs. When the actuator is fired, it creates and sends a fire interaction. Because the weapon actuator does not prepare and send a detonation interaction as part of the firing process, the ballistic gun actuator may be a more appropriate choice for some situations (the ballistic gun actuator determines the detonation result of munition using probability tables, and generates the detonation interaction.).

Uses Descriptor Type: DtWeaponActuatorDescriptor

name	Reader writer name of this component.
owner	The DtVrfObject that owns this component
simManager	The simulation manager (provides access to terrain, message interface, simulation clock).
desc	The component descriptor used to initialize this component.
parentRegistry	Pointer to the parent reader writer registry (the containing object that reads/writes this object).

Reimplemented from DtActuatorComponent.

Reimplemented in DtLauncherActuator.

virtual const char* DtWeaponActuator::type ( ) const

virtual

Returns a string identifies the class type of component.

Type values are defined in compTypes.h. DtSimComponent creation functions are registered with the DtSimComponentFactory using the type values as the key. Warning: this function should always return the same pointer and it should be valid forever. This means the data should be static.

Returns

virtual void DtWeaponActuator::fireTheWeapon ( )

Calls createFireInteraction() and sends the resulting DtFireInteraction through the exercise connection.

Reimplemented in DtIndirectFireActuator, and DtLauncherActuator.

virtual DtFireInteraction* DtWeaponActuator::createFireInteraction ( )

virtual

Creates and fills out a DtFireInteraction. Returns a DtFireInteraction.

virtual

virtual const DtVector& DtWeaponActuator::muzzleOffset ( )

virtual

virtual const DtVector& DtWeaponActuator::muzzleLocalPosition ( )

virtual

Returns the weapon muzzle’s position in local coordinates.

It calls getWeaponSimBody() to get the DtSimBody associated with the weapon. If no DtSimBody part is found for the weapon, it returns the local position of the entity. If it is found, it calls DtSimBody::calculateMeInWorld() to get the position of the weapon in local coordinates. It rotates the muzzle offset (stored by the entity in body coordinates in myMuzzleOffset) by the weapon’s current orientation (a rotation matrix returned by weaponOrientation()), to get the offset in local coordinates. It then adds the offset to the weapon’s local position to get the muzzle position in local coordinates, and returns.

virtual const DtDcm& DtWeaponActuator::weaponOrientation ( )

virtual

Returns the rotation matrix needed to rotate a vector from body coordinates of the weapon to local coordinates.

It looks up the DtSimBody associated with the weapon by calling getWeaponSimBody(). If it finds the DtSimBody, it returns the rotation matrix given by the DtSimBody::calculateMeToWorld(). If it does not find the DtSimBody, it calls DtEuler_to_BodyToLocalRef() with the entity’s local orientation, and returns the resulting matrix instead.

virtual DtArticulatedPartStateRepository* DtWeaponActuator::getWeaponSimBody ( )

virtual

Looks up the DtSimBody* for the weapon in the entity’s state repository.

It first looks up the articulated part type specified in the component’s articulated part descriptor list. If it finds the articulated part type, it tries to look up the DtSimBody in the entity’s state repository, using the articulated part type as a key. If it finds DtSimBody, it returns a pointer to the DtSimBody, if it does not, it returns NULL.
