Scratching my head = learning curve?
I am using a cloner I watched the Videos you produced about how to set- up cloners. I wanted to use that principle to spawn an incoming air wing for the ship. that last waypoint has it set to land on all 3 clone zones except for the UH-1h, which is the random cloner. It appears that you can spawn and clone about anything according to your post on this thread, however, when selected the aircraft are never to be seen there are no error messages or issues according to the load ing menus for the modules. I have scoured the information numerous times trying to troubleshoot the problem. What could be done incorrectly? I have attached my mission file to the reply. any suggestions will be appreciated Do I need to switch the cloners to red if I am blue?

I now was able to open the mission.
It appears that for reasons unknown you have no inputs defined for any cloner. You are using and unknown output attribute "cloner!" in a way that makes me believe that you think that is the input to trigger a clone cycle. Perhaps you may want to revisit the relevant chapter in the documentation?

I reread the chapter about input to outputs, outputs start with a question mark, and inputs begin with an exclamation point Now the term cloner is what I used from watching your video on spawning units ., Im have attempted numerous changes and still get the same result. to the point of becoming frustrated. I'd like to learn and use a few DML applications in my mission-making. I'd rather not scour the whole publication looking for specific answers. that is why I asked you to point me to the principle of where I should pay close attention, could you kindly point out from the publication where I should pay close attention? What I shall do to correct the reasons why I am unable to clone the units I'm attempting to use in my mission, in opening my mission and doing your analysis of my mission what must I correct or edit to get the cloners to work properly ?

Well, it should be simple, and from what I've seen in your mission, you are already 99% there. Cloners trigger on their clone? input, so you connect the radioMenu outputs (A!, ...) to the (missing, currently incorrectly named "cloner!") inputs using the same "command" (please read the "yeller model" analogy, and it should all click).
spawn?
clone?
Input to trigger a clone cycle.
Defaults to <none>
This input has multiple synonyms. Use only one per zone.
Be advised that DML's "cloneZones" are one of the most versatile and powerful tools in the box, and that you may be mission a lot of fun if you skip the docs
