1u is certainly possible! Supermicro do some great servers

hopefully that's a long way off! Btw, I don't have time to look into it, but if anyone points me at missions with more slots I'll put them on the server. I've checked in a few times and there's often people waiting to fly.

In case you've missed it the Teamspeak port has changed to 9999. So, to connect you need to enter goingugly.com:9999 pw warthog. Sleem

You are welcome on my server. It is only occasionally passworded but mostly open. I would prefer it if people used TeamSpeak for coordination but many do not. I set this up as I do not have time (or the inclination) for the formality of a squadron. I just want mature flights with other like minded people. The only real server rule is to play nice! ;) My server is going ugly which is UK based. The ping limit is 350, which may present a problem due to your location, but hopefully will not! :)

Hi Panzertard Hope you don't mind I slightly edited Servman for A10 on my server to show 3 missions per line in the mission list, instead of two. There were too many and they were scrolling out the top of chat. Regards Sleem

Glad you are enjoying the server! I have just had another baby girl so find I am either too sleep deprived/busy to fly atm. I can try to sort out a d/l of missions but I think nearly all are available already. Dragons training/mp packs, Fob Vetka, original mp missions from A10. There are one or two others only. I don't know how many players the server would support, but I think it should easily handle 16 or even more. It has a 100mb connection. The number of slots can be increased by editing the missions to provide more empty planes to fly. This will however often imbalance a mission's difficulty as the enemy are normally fixed in number. I will fly again, one day! :)

At the moment there are nine people in the group, from varying timezones. Anyone can join if they want. I must admit I've lost a little interest in A10 recently while trying to relearn FalconBMS and get ready for another baby!

I've changed it to two tk's before getting kicked.

The alternative is to decrease the penalty for teamkilling or disable it. Spawning inside other planes cannot be prevented as far as I know.

Can I draw your attention to this thread http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=78638 anyone interested in arranging MP sessions is welcome to join this Skype group by sending a friend request to goingugly.

It continues to run on my server but there's only a few members of it currently. Hopefully more will gradually join and it will become more useful. I'm also looking at FalconBMS and running a server for that if possible. The dynamic campaign and multiple roles have enticed me in :)

All missions have been resaved with 1109 and FOB Vetka added too. I've fiddled just a little with Panzertard's Servman so three missions are displayed per line to fit them all on (hope he doesn't mind) Can I ask anyone using the server to let me know if they notice anything unusual over the next few days, such as lag, pauses etc (crashes don't count!) This is because I'm testing my hardware to see if it will run Falcon BMS as a server at the same time as DCS A10. :)

My feelings pretty much exactly! Drop by my server Going Ugly. Although I leave it open much of the time, I do run closed sessions for more organised coop. Next is likely to be Monday around 1930GMT, but there may be something tomorrow same time. Hope to see you online :)

I wasn't doubting you - just saying I wasn't aware there was a problem! :) I will load and resave from the mission editor when I next can. If there are any other issues, good missions to load, bad missions to delete, etc. let me know!

Didn't realise this was a problem. Will look into it when I get the chance. I'm happy to leave this server open most of the time, but really wish more people would use TeamSpeak to play cooperatively. Very few people seem to want to do this despite me trying to encourage them! Please!? :)

1930 GMT :)

Beginners training mission on goingugly around 2030 BST. All welcome :)

Going ugly server will have training around 830pm BST 4/9/11 All welcome

If you send a friend request to goingugly on Skype I'll add you to a group chat. Once a few people join you could hopefully use it to find a wingman.

I've finally realised what you mean. Doh! On my server as soon as someone joins, as a spectator, the mission is unpaused. So the 'logic' is already running when a player enters an aircraft and the unit alive is triggered.

I've not seen that JIP issue Wildfire has described but that may be because I run a dedicated server with servman which keeps the mission paused until someone has joined. I have used a predator for JTAC (or AFAC to be more precise I guess) and it works to a degree. It gives the nine line but does not send tasking. Would you like a JTAC or AFAC mission then, Speed? My ground JTACs never seemed to work so well, possibly because of line of sight issues

I am doing a similar thing but it does seem to work. I'm not entirely sure what part of this isn't working for you. Are you playing on the same machine that's hosting or is this a 'dedicated' server?

I don't think this has been updated for 1109 patch :(

Are you sure? Switched : unit alive player 1 : flag on 1, flag Inc 10,1 Switched : unit dead player 1 : flag off 1, flag dec 10,1 Switched : unit alive player 2 : flag on 2, flag Inc 10,1 Switched : unit dead player 2 : flag off 2, flag dec 10,1 Switched : player 1 in zone : flag off 1 Switched : player 1 out zone & unit alive player 1 : flag 1 on Switched : player 2 in zone : flag off 2 Switched : player 2 out zone & unit alive player 2 : flag 2 on Once : flag false 1, flag false 2, flag 10 > 0 : message blah Not tested but I think this should work? :)

You have already answered that part of the original question. EtherealN's answer assumes you know the average number of clients per second over a period of a month! My post gives you an idea for usage of an open server
