Hi, If possible, I am looking for a pointer in the right direction with the following: So I have been using the Mission Editor for a few weeks now, adding triggers, actions and so on and all is going well. However, as the number of triggers increase I thought how best to try and limit those. So my idea was to push as much as I can, out to a script file. E.g. I have five messages that are individually triggered when a group (I have five groups) is dead; thats ok to do in the ME and I have moved those checks (if a group is dead send a message) to the script file and it does work, however I only get the message displayed if I refresh the script. `so `I am thinking I need to somehow trigger those checks from the ME somehow or can I get DCS with MIST to repeatedly check the status of each group without any calls from the ME. Appreciate anyone help in maybe guiding me in the right approach. Regards. Shuggie.

Hi All Mad_Shell was right. This was the 1st mission I had created with wind, hence not noticing the effect on True Airspeed, before - oops! To be fair though, every demo on hovering I have seen, they reference the TAS and it comes down to zero, so they ain’t using wind. Anyway; all solved and thanks to all of you for your help replying. Thanks. Hugh

Constantly, in the mission I am working on. I even removed all triggers and objects, set the aircraft to player role, cold start, add another AH-64 but I still get this issue. As I mentioned in my original post, Start a new mission or use one of the ED Trg missions and it’s fine. It’s like the issue is with the mission file but removing everything from the mission file and leaving only the ah-64 in it, it still has a true airspeed of e.g. 15 or 16, even when on the ground and not moving. There is wind in the mission - hadn’t thought about that. Will have a look tomorrow and let you know.

Hi, I have noticed of late that when I try to hover, the True Airspeed never gets to 0, even when the aircraft is stable. I landed it and checked, and the True Airspeed showed 15. I restarted the mission with a hot start and still the True Airspeed shows 15 on the ground. I went and tried one of the default AH-64 training scenarios and the True Airspeed on the ground started at 0, as expected. I created a blank mission with just the AH-64 in it, set to hot start; True Airspeed shows 15 on the ground. I don’t know when precisely this started but started noticing it in the last week. I am on the current DCS release and ‘witched’ all files before updating. I don’t have any addons that might influence this. Bit of a puzzle really. I also added another AH-64 to my mission file and that behaved the same i.e. True Airspeed shows 15 on the ground.
