Currently measured:
In the YR1.001+Ares3.0p1+PhobosBuild#45 environment
it is functioning normally.
In the YR1.001+Ares3.0p1+KratosPPv0.1.15 environment
the SAM building will be prohibited from acquiring targets
*(the author of KratosPP stated that this part was not modified at all, and the author does not understand this logic either).
In the YR1.001+Ares3.0p1+PhobosBuild#45+KratosPPv0.1.15 environment
the SAM can acquire targets normally
but firing will immediately trigger a Fatal Error, and the EIP address is not in gamemd.exe (the record doesn't really mean much, hence it's not included in the EIP page.).

Applicable to: BuildingTypes


Can be set to 'yes' or 'no' and determines that this BuildingType is a SAM (surface to air missile launcher) and thus its weapons can only fire at AircraftTypes.


Note

This is unused in Red Alert 2 as the use of this means that the structure will not fire InfantryTypes,VehicleTypes with JumpJet=yes set or acquire them as targets - it will only target AircraftTypes.

Aircraft designated as targets must not exist in the [General]►PadAircraft list;

  • otherwise, the SAM will not even aim.

Aircraft designated as targets cannot have a valid building in their Dock list;

  • otherwise, the SAM can only rotate its turret but cannot actually fire.

However, even so, the SAM can only fire its weapons normally when the target aircraft is in a hover state. Once the aircraft moves, it will only occasionally fire a few shots under specific conditions and the frequency of re-locking and turret rotation in this case does not adhere to the weapon's ROF settings, nor is it a fixed value. Even the aforementioned situation of suddenly firing two rounds can occur without facing the target, even if there is no [Weapon] > OmniFire=yes. Additionally, SAM enforces attacks only on aerial targets, meaning it cannot fire at targets that have landed on the ground, even if they do not have LandTargeting=1.

In other words, SAM targets can only be Aircraft that have AirportBound=yes, Dock=none, and have taken off.
