These are interesting layers, but don't correspond with the issue, which is the current way dynamic spawns work. Expecting players to read up which airfield historically did serve which limited types of aircraft before spawning is ignoring the fact that most servers use map modules for any kind of fantasy conflicts and the artillery you remind us of here will simply not be there. Braunschweig's runway is about 1 NM long. Even on Tal Siman on Syria you can land an F-16 while the runway there is only half that long. Denying players the use Braunschweig for jets for historic reasons is kind of ridiculous. There are concrete spawn points at Braunschweig, so its perfectly fine for jets. The legacy spawn system doesn't have any issues with this. This thread wouldn't exist before the Dynamic slot system had been invented. What we are seeing here is simply the new Dynamic slot system causing conflicts by randomly putting too heavy aircraft on too soft ground. Telling people what is historic and what isn't and that you think they are supposed to use helicopters is not helpful.

Another multicrew duo reported this happening today in the DCS discord... https://discord.com/channels/542985647502393346/551106084157390874/1375428945914363966 also, use of grayscale confirmed

My report isn't meant to claim that these spots should offer a concrete floor. The issue is that the dynamic slot system can't deal with these positions and will happily assign grass spots to unsuited aircraft.

and @tekrc you guys might wanna scroll down the delivery mode in the bombing table...

I added a 128x128 px png in \Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor\data\images\Countries\Germany\Troops and a related line into the \Saved Games\DCS\Scripts\database\troops\Germany.lua but it just won't show up. Doesn't adding squadrons for the logbook work (anymore)? I attached both files... Germany.lua

Werneuchen received its own report, due to the conflicting frequency with Havel VOR:

Spawn points 01-16 and 21-24 are affected. Most fixed winged aircraft will be stuck in the grass upon spawn.

already reported here

This is a problem with selecting FCR on L6 as well. Happens on both MPDs, pilot and CPG.

any idea where to receive a replacement for this internal cable?

Can you remove the ILS info? Its irrelevant that there is ILS available today. It didn't have ILS until at least 1991 (my charts AIRAC is 19SEP1991) so mentioning it here only confuses the report. Regarding the TACAN, it had been on Ch 88 in 1991, no idea when it had been changed from 28.

Under construction, 1968, It had been completed the next year.

Without many words, can the tower shaft corrected to be a cone all the way up?

The trees are the real problem. What are the trees supposed to do inside the death strip? Assist fugitives when climbing across the wall? Also there was generally no grass. It should be all sand. Border guards wanted to see any kind of traces from people attempting to reach the wall on foot.

I understand that we can't expect a map of this size being entirely handcrafted. I also don't see an issue alike "too few" points of interest being modeled. I totally get that the creation of such an enormous map size will require some shortcuts, and templates might be an acceptable thing. Yet for some reason I struggle to not feeling annoyed by such widespread copy pasting of quite the big templates here. We all value Ugra for their invention of details, of raising the standards for map fidelity and inventing new ideas. Yet this slowly starts to feels like an attempt to use the incredible details on stuff like oil barrels, wall clocks, drawer handles and chairs and monitors in airfield towers, combined harvesters, blue bicycles and hot air balloons to distract us from quite the repetitive use of templates of so far unseen size. Or in other words, at this point I can't follow why it was deemed necessary to create beautifully detailed interiors of factories and power plants (for any other purpose than nice teasing pictures building up hype and the wow effect when visiting these ingame for the first and second time) while the effort would rather have been a better investment for adding some more building archetypes or increased support for the AI or whatever procedure was used to interpret all the data required for map creation. Yes, this is early access and I am already happily contributing hints and advise in this forum, to support Ugra and their product. Yet right now I wish they would have focused on those details responsible for an historically accurate depiction of things which are supposed to make this map a cold war themed map. Adding the Iron curtain and selected models of renown historic landmarks are a good basis. Its sad to see this immersion reduced by dropping ever the same templates of actually big complexes (as beautifully detailed as they may be) across the map. This is a small compilation. There are many more of these out there. Each of them is as big as several city blocks or a little village. While alone they look beautiful in their detail, the copy pasting has gotten out of control.

This location is fiction. The area has been one of the two Berlin Zoos (this being the East Berlin one, "Tierpark Berlin") since 1955. https://www.google.com/maps/@52.5025658,13.5311921,3124m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDQxNi4xIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

Totally! This is currently an issue for most if not all airfields though. Has been reported here already:

has already been reported here Threads can be merged. New report extends the issue to around 8 km out of the immediate port area.

do you know this site? https://www.mil-airfields.de/deutschland/ddr-sowjetische-flugplaetze-gssd.html

I got lucky as a kid on an Open Doors at Berlin-Tempelhof in 1991(?) and a Huey pilot there gifted me a DOD FLIP (Terminal) Low Altitude Europe North Africa and Middle East. (AIRAC 19 SEP 1991). Unfortunately because I was young and stupid I ripped out the Tegel, Tempelhof and Gatow pages to have them right next to me for PC flying but of course these pages got lost over time. How could I have known this little book turn out to be a piece of gold 35 years later. This old data is really hard to find. Thanks for the insight. I guess this gives us hope the issue can be fixed?

This is not accurate for the cold war era. Your 2024 charts don't really help here. There was no Southlane in the 1980s and the Northlane had different dimensions (1000x50m).

Inaccurate for the cold war era, see the chart H4XAPU posted above

So far I checked Sperenberg on channel 28 and Altes Lager on channel 24 and couldn't receive them in my MiG-21. To rule out I did something wrong, can somebody else confirm these two do work?

Also the ILS is wrong at Bückeburg. - ILS frequency 114.80 MHz is outside of the ICAO-ILS frequency roster (108.10-111.95 MHz). Also please see next point below... - Bückeburg didn't have any ILS, both ILS should be removed

The true headings are irrelevant. Since only the magnetic variation is changing over time while plate tectonic drift of continents is very likely not simulated, the true heading will always be the same. Magnetic variation shift would be the only important factor in this matter, so its sufficient to simply observe the shifts in magnetic headings. Evidently the shift in real world magnetic variation along the cold war era up until today is too small here to result in the 10 degree offsets we see at airfields the further west they are on the map. So we can rule out magnetic variation or "wrong" Mission dates being the culprit. These would only result in a few degrees (2° max?) offset. You can check on the magnetic variation lines on the F10 map in aviation display mode as well. The issue we have at hand is that ingame runway headings (which are always published magnetic) deviate by up to more than 10 degrees from the published runway headings, regardless which mission date is set. And this deviation increases with decreasing longitude. The more east you go (Berlin for example) deviation decreases and headings become accurate.
