How can you make a Suicide Drone?

[Mania]

I'm trying to make the NATO UCAV (Not the sentinel the other one) into a suicide drone cus of it's striking similarities to the Israeli IAI Harop.

To be more specific, I want a GBU to detonate when the drone reaches 0 health.

Give about 30 minutes to get home and I can give you a .sqf version and a trigger version, whichever is easier for you.

Shouldn't be anything too hard right? Should just be a script to spawn a GBU-12 when drone (with a variable name) reaches 0 health

Yep! If you have the code knowledge and are stuck on something I'm happy to help.

Thank you, add me on steam and send me the script or .sqf when you have it.

Alright here is the .sqf code.
It's very simple, only four lines

_me = _this select 0; //Get our first argument
waitUntil {(damage _me) > 0.1}; //Wait until the drone is hurt. You can tweak the threshold
bomb = "Bo_GBU12_LGB" createVehicle (_me modelToWorld [0,0,-0.5]); //Spawn a bomb
bomb setDamage 1; //Bombs instantly explode when destroyed, so do that.

Put this code into a file called

 suicideBomb.sqf 

in your mission folder and to use it just put

 [this] execVM "suicideBomb.sqf" 

in the Init of the vehicle you want to become a bomb. You can always swap the class names out in that second line to tweak explosion size.

Cheers!
