You're welcome!

LLf5fxs435E Hope some of you find this usefull!

Thank you! Great template!

I use airbrakes to bring my speed down for the approach then apply as appropriate. They are tool to use just like anything else.

Yes it would be helpful to explain what the controls actually do. That'll take some explaining, however the A10C mission tutorials goes some way to explaining them. If you bind them and know where they are located, the tutorial mission should help

Thanks :D

I made a quick video on how to bind your essential controls to your joystick v=rCv2jZ08h1k

I'm looking at collecting the game state data, position of units etc and evaluating it to generate tasks then sending the lua script to the game in real time. It would occasionally poll the game world and work out what tasks to assign. In a very broad sense. I assume I can get information back from the dcs server? Such as enumerations of units in game and their states etc? Thanks for the info.

Vista is a terrible operating system. Move to at least 7.

Hi Can I obtain the current games state using an external application? ie via a network socket?

I'm writing a service in C# that can dynamically generate LUA code. Is there an entry point in DCS where I can inject LUA and have it execute? Thanks

I worked this out, I had to use StaticObject.getByName instead

I voted for multiplayer improvements. We will always see new modules coming to DCS but the framework for creating community missions just isn't there by default. I'd like to see: 1. Dedicated server with Linux or Windows options that run via command line 2. Console access to dedicated servers (much like HLDS) 3. Much improved server browser (filter by region, mission name) 4. Ability to create virtual squadrons by adding friends 5. Consolidated squadron log book with stats and figures about the squadron 6. Integrated voice coms

I am creating a peace-keeping campaign. In one of my missions I want to fly the Mi8 to pick up some stranded civilians. I am using the airshow crowd static object to represent the civilians. In my script, I can't get Unit.getByName to return the civilian object. Are static objects accessible via getByName? It always returns nil. Any ideas? I just put this test script together, it never seems to find the objects. Does it matter that they are static? Civilians[0] = "Civ_1" Civilians[1] = "Civ_2" Civilians[2] = "Civ_3" Civilians[3] = "Civ_4" Civilians[4] = "Civ_5" Civilians[5] = "Civ_6" Civilians[6] = "Civ_7" Civilians[7] = "Civ_8" Civilians[8] = "Civ_9" Civilians[9] = "Civ_10" Civilians[10] = "Civ_11" Civilians[11] = "Civ_12" Civilians[12] = "Civ_13" Civilians[13] = "Civ_14" for index = 0, maxCivilians, 1 do unitname = Civilians[index] trigger.action.outText(string.format("Looking for %s",unitname),2) civilian = Unit.getByName(unitname) if civilian == nil then trigger.action.outText("Civilian not found!", 2) break else trigger.action.outText(string.format("Civilian found: %f", index) , 2) end end

Upgrade to 1.5 beta. Youll get better performance and targets are easier to spot

I don't think there are any settings for the ballute deployment. At least not that I know of. I just created a new profile.

I made a quick and dirty tutorial which explains how to use and aim the unguided rockets so hopefully you can hit something. Hope you find it helpfull 2aLsWYolWXw

Yes this was explained in a YouTube comment. Thanks!

Possibly. But going low and dropping a crap load of ordnance looks cooler :D

It's in the description of the video on YouTube. RPL SGL, RPL QTY=12, 25FT Really not sure why my first bomb fell short. If anyone can explain I'd appreciate it.

I had some questions from a few friends on how to deploy MK82AIRs (or any other dumb bomb) in ripple mode so they can wipe out large groups of targets. So I decided to put together a few short videos on how to configure weapons for simply destroying a line of trucks, from that I hope others can adapt the technique for different scenarios 3e2Orrsz8Hs

No AFM, no play. Just not interested in a simple flight model. I've pre-ordered but I'll wait until a decent flight model has been added.

Whats the config I need to switch off rendering in 1.5 servers? I'm running on a server with no 3D capability.

It would be great if aircraft engines start to smoke while they spool up. Start up seems a bit sterile in this regard.

Odds are the story is linked to the search for Luke, who probably turns up in the last scenes. He's on board with the next two movies so he's going to be around.
