I'd love this feature. It would let the switches for heating and de-ice actually be useful. edit: grammar

Doesn't work for me either. Tried several trigger actions like setFlag or setFlagValue but the unitExplosion action seems to not work at all. Also tried it with B-17, A-20 and C-130

Turns out the 'l10n/DEFAULT/' is necessary for trigger.action.radioTransmission. So if anyone is stumbling upon the same issue, here is the final snippet of the syntax: local function BASE_Homing_v() trigger.action.radioTransmission("l10n/DEFAULT/BASE_Homing_start.ogg", trigger.misc.getZone("ATC1").point, radio.modulation.AM, false, 39600000, 420, "ATC1") end local function BASE_Homing_v2() trigger.action.outSound("The Storm.ogg" ) end timer.scheduleFunction(BASE_Homing_v, {}, timer.getTime() + 3) timer.scheduleFunction(BASE_Homing_v2, {}, timer.getTime() + 3)

Thanks for the reply, it's working now via trigger.action.outSound but I still can't hear the radio transmission. One thing was the filename in the scipt as you mentioned but I also made another mistake by inizializing the sounds only for the red faction. Had to use PlaySoundToAll. I've also realized that I messed up the syntax of trigger.action.radioTransmission because I switched Hz with power. The 'l10n/DEFAULT/' part seems to be obsolete. Now it looks like this (without the ouText func) local function BASE_Homing_v() trigger.action.radioTransmission("BASE_Homing_start.ogg", trigger.misc.getZone("ATC1").point, radio.modulation.AM, true, 039600000, 420) end timer.scheduleFunction(BASE_Homing_v, {}, timer.getTime() + 3) The wiki says that Hz requires 9 digits, so 39.6 MHz should be 039600000, right? I did set up the trigger zone 'ATC1' and the player is withing the zone when broadcasting the message. The radio is also turned on and every channel is set to 39.6MHz.

probably the reason why I didn't find any numbers so makes sense

Quote from Wikipedia I have no idea what the rate was for P-47s but I guess it's similar. When I'm landing the Bf-109 it's a 50/50 chance of either landing successfully with a little bit of drifting or catching my nose and going up in flames. This tutorial is for the BF109F4 in IL2 but I think the procedure should be the same in general Edit: Just realized that you're the dude who's looking for a Bf-109 squadron.

Anyone else having issues with torpedo runs when there are multiple ships present? When there are two targets, they sometimes even sink both ships (modded ships with less hp) in one run but once i place more than 2 ships, the torpedos won't even get close

I'd be more into flying a Ju-87 Stuka. I'm wondering what happened to it. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=156308

Hey, since the external flight panel from Saitek isn't recocnized as controller in DCS, you need an external application called DCSFlightpanel. It's mapping the buttons and switches to either keys or directly to DCS-BIOS functions, like BAT_ON or GEN_ON (turn on battery/generator). When mapping everything to a BIOS function you don't need to set up the controls in DCS and in general it works like charm. But when watching a replay, the game won't detect the buttons that I have pressed so the plane so my aircraft won't start it's engine or won't drop bombs. The replay only recognizes pressed buttons that are mapped as keystrokes. So if I want to be able to watch replays, I need to map everything as keystroke, which doesn't work well when multiple keystrokes like ctrl+L are used (which have to be used because there are not too many available single keys). DCSFlightpanel seems to press the second button to late, there's a minimum latency of 32ms and I think the program stops pressing the first key, when pressing the second. So currently I have to decide if I want to use my external panel or if I want to be able to watch the replay, which is kind of annoying. I know this is a minor issue but I hope ED finds a way to fix this in future. http://https://ibb.co/Rgpvz3N Sorry if this has already been reported. Cheers Don Calzone

Hey, I'm currently working on a script that is supposed to transmit several messages to the players radio. After digging through the forum I thought I found the solution. I initialized the sounds via trigger so they get saved into the miz, then I've added 'l10n/DEFAULT/' to the path. Sadly it doesn't seem to work. I can see the function is called because I've added a outText line but no sound is playing. I've also tried trigger.action.outSound but no success. The log gives me no error, I have no idea what I'm missing, it actually drives me crazy Based on the following two posts it should work but I guess an update must have changed something. Playing the sounds via ME trigger works for both, radio transmissions and generic sounds. I'd appreciate any help or recommendations on where I could find a solution for this.
