ldnz started following Access to F10 Map Markers and/or new dynamic flightplan via export lua
-
Currently the scripting engine has hooks for dealing with map markers only in the mission scripting environment, and this has proven very powerful for dynamic multiplayer missions. An increasing number of aircraft use map markers as an interface to easily load in flight plans and mark points of interest, and I'd like the same information to be query-able via the Export API so I could use this in external tools - e.g. a dynamic VR kneeboard, or similar. And/Or the new dynamic flightplan feature - it would be great to access that via Export too.

Trim no longer working with Rhino ffb

Yeah, that was my issue. Wrong binding. Tip top now -
Trim no longer working with Rhino ffb
ldnz replied to 142nd_Bama's topic in Controller Questions and Bugs
I have the same issue as heloguy, CD Release does nothing at all with my VPForce. No TelemFFB or anything else. Annoying as I can't trim at all so its constant force -
@Miguel21 - I've been debugging AI strikes particularly 3 issues: 1. target and action waypoint wasn't being skipped, so AI would hang around, drop 2 bombs, then have to go back to action -> target -> egress to get out. This also meant B-52 cruise missile strikes wouldn't work as the aircraft followed the missiles in. 2. With a multi LGB drop, it can take a couple of passes, which screws up the ETAs on egress waypoints, and sees the AI go full burner to get home, running out of fuel. 3. LGBs can't be used on map point targets. Fixes attached, I don't fully understand the behavour intended, so please this is indicative only. If you have a git repo, I could open a pull request which would make the changes easier to point to/discuss ATO_FlightPlan.lua CustomTasksScript.lua

Interesting, I haven't seen any crashes, HARMs seem to be working fine in that region. Yes, this has caused a lot of grief in the scripting community, MIST and MOOSE have already had fixes. I've done a general scan through and this looked like the worst affected. Most of the event stuff is being recorded fine - statics being destroyed, aircraft airborne or on ground are fine. Possibly an issue with attacks of ground groups - I'm seeing F-15s just turn around and refuse with dumb bombs at the point the customgroupattack is triggered, but no crashes in logs. Attacks of statics are fine.

Hi, yes the behaviour of getCategory() apparently changed in the latest patch. I was getting GCIScript errors at line 180, and no interceptors launching. With the file I uploaded, its working again, but yes I'm not 100% sure its correct. @Miguel21

Small fix required to GCIScript after the last getCategory() changes. Not sure if this is correct, but seems to work: GCIscript.lua

@Miguel21 - I think I've found a bug with the conf_mod updates. I'm trying to get my campaign generator to generate a conf_mod file, and that includes defaulting all the PruneScript behaviour to False (I don't feel its needed in these days with multithreading, and I like seeing the airbases populated!) Unfortunately, as part of Util_Functions::UpdateConfMod, it seems to replace PruneScriptConf table with values in conf_mod_check, which means the PruneScript is always forced on. I think its struggling with the fact the PruneScriptConf is a table, and just replacing it wholesale instead of iterating through its contents. I'm not sure what the fix is. Other parts of conf_mod seem to merge ok. Edit: Found that by adding the EjectedPilotFrequency table I can avoid UpdateConfMod being called. This will only work until the next time a new feature is added though

Radar gets stuck in TWSA while a Phoenix is outbound...
ldnz replied to Callsign JoNay's topic in Bugs and Problems
This is definitely still an issue. PDSTT -> PSTT from the front seat (either via jester button or wheel) seems to work once per session. You can tell from the ctrl-enter control indicator that in subsequent attempts jester says OK but nothing happens, and stays in PDSTT -
Yep, broke my arm and couldn't code for a bit but working on it again now. Added Sinai support, and testing a fix now for AI not bombing ships. Major work outstanding before I consider a version 1.0 release is adding ability to upload briefing missions and assign them to targets, I think that's an awesome feature of DCE.

Had the same issue while trying to play the Kerman Campaign mission two. CCIP seemed ok, but Auto was 20m short.

PD Search & P Search selections in the Jester wheel radar section
ldnz replied to scommander2's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
These two modes need a competent RIO, and offer no visibility to the pilot, so I don't think they're in scope for Jester.
