The thread says it isn't unhooking when dropping. This happened also. The 3rd load doesn't unhook and crashes. I can't get a mission finished on this mission. It is a flaw because its always the 3rd load. Can be any of the three loads. Sometimes it sinks into the hill. Its only happened once accidently when the rope tore and I dropped the load on the 3rd load but then I crashed the helicopter, and I got a mission complete message. But I was not able to take off again from the hill. So, I couldn't finish the mission.

OK, thanks for your help. The script didn't work the first time I tried it, even with the units pilot name. I will try it again later.

I have it working. It's not necessary anymore.

Hello, I wrote the wrong example. This is the example on the website. local jtac = Unit.getByName('jtacBob') local target = Unit.getByName('BMPAirDefenseSystemGroup1_unit1'):getPoint() local ray = Spot.createInfraRed(jtac, {x = 0, y = 1, z = 0}, target) @ChumpDid you use the same script you wrote here on your mission.? Can you write the script you used.

@ChumpYour Script wasn't working. But thanks for replying. It is close to a working one. I want to Bump this thread up. I have found a webpage with scripting examples. local jtac = Unit.getByName('jtacBob') local target = Unit.getByName('BMPAirDefenseSystemGroup1_unit1'):getPoint() local ray = Spot.createLaser(jtac, {x = 0, y = 1, z = 0}, target, 1337) This one works very well. Thanks to this LINK: Category:Scripting - DCS World Wiki - Hoggitworld.com It has a lot more scripting examples. It is great.

Thats still not working. It may be an incorrect script. I can't find the right way of running this script. Can you please write it correctly with the names and functions as it is in the game so it runs properly. I may need another suggestion how to run the script. Can the IRpointer be fired in the game from a unit with a script.? Can someone from the ED development team answer this.?

No that didn't fire the laser. I've typed that as a Run Script command.

Hi, I don't know the scripting format. I can't write it down with this function. It doesn't work. Is there more information needed to make the script work. I've changed Object Source as the object firing the laser. Like Aerial-1 The Local point is still nil and last point is changed to Ground-1. But the game doesn't accept that and it doesn't fire the laser.

Hello, Can you make a unit say like a drone plane point its ir pointer at another unit without using the JTAC command. I have thought a script might do it like this one, Spot function Spot.createInfraRed(Object source, Vec3 localPoint = nil, Vec3 point) I don't know how to set it up. Can someone show me how it could be done. So that you can see an IR pointer in the game. Used for reference or guide only.

Hi, That is the working one. I didn't think of it. Thank you.

Hello, Is there a way of switching the Flir switch on with the mission editor. Is this a problem with the mission editor. I don't know if I have put the question in the right forum. What would the x clickable command look like to switch the TGP Flir on.

Hello, I want some help with a x clickable command scenario with the F18 Hornet. I would like to turn the TGP on with the 3-way button Off/Standby/On with this command. I am using x clickable command 43 - 3001 - 1 I t doesn't turn the switch. Can you help me with this command script.

I get disturbed lighting effects on night mission. It on VR and it's always present. The ground lights from runways to streetlights are distorted and manipulated and it causes an effect that lights up the ground unevenly and like a colourfull display of lights changing colours. It ruins game at night. I want to ask the forum and developers are they aware of it or how to find a solution. I have captured video of the problem it is uploaded on youtube because the video file is large so I can't upload it here. Can you have a look and tell me what you think.
