Look forward to seeing those updates Decoy... Welcome

[Tarawa shortcomings]

so far this is working good. helos are launching from deck as expected.

[What should be the next Capt Zeen Helios profile?]

AV8 desperately needed.

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

another quick note for the developers. When close to shore the essex will engage enemy vehicles with its Close In Defense system before the gun batteries engage. Fun to watch it spray ground targets with 20mm at 4km but doubtful if realistic. FYI. Also top speed wont go over 13knots. Should be at least 24

[Tarawa shortcomings]

Suntsag you are soooo close on this. Put a mission together with two Av8 flying CAS. They took off from the Tarawa about 50 miles off the coast. Flew into the combat zone dropped their bombs and flew all the way back to the ship. Did a couple of patterns to set up for landing around the Tarawa only to land in the sea next to the ship.... Keep up the good work. Really close

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

Taylor dont know if this helps but get alot of errors in the logs about water line and gun placement

[Activate enemy aircraft with trigger]

ah got it. Been pounding my head looking for that. Thanks so much

 

is there a lua command to activate them later?

[Activate enemy aircraft with trigger]

Bad I dont see a checkbox that says uncontrolled

[trigger.action.setGroupAIOff]

does this function still work. Im trying to build a mission where the helos dont start the mission powering up. If I use this function, shouldnt the helo just be sitting there as mission starts?

 

My syntax in my lua is

 

local russlift1 = Group.getByName('Russairlft #001')

trigger.action.setGroupAIOff(russlift1)

 

right now if I use this the helo is powering up on mission start.

[crash in mission editor]

same here Im sending alot of logs....

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

No Problem Taylor. This is a must have mod and I just want to put in issues as they arise so you have a list.

[TPOD unexpected update.]

is the tpod considered complete or is there still more to come? Hard to tell with no changelog.

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

missing textures on essex rear turret

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

Thanks Gunter

Going to have to wait on ED to fix AI plane issues before any more fixes take place...It was all fine till latest update....

 

I feel your pain Taylor... Two steps forward, one step back

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

Taylor we are seeing some log errors for the Essex

keep em coming Taylor

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

Taylor ships look great. Helos take off nicely but will not land. AI Aircraft still lift off vertically. So close. Interesting find. AI helos will land on cruisers. Had a CH53 land on the back of the spruance.

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

If you guys can place objects on the decks please let me know how you did it...I cant figure that out without messing with the .LAU files....and take some screens...Salute!

 

USS Saipan

[AI Amphibs have limited range on water]

Hmm I am just building an anphibious assault and the aav7 travel in my scenario more than 4 miles in water with no other problem than a max speed of 6 knots.

And I have like 6 different groups of aav7 doing so.

I am using the Release version.

 

Furia

If you place a start point 4 miles out and an end point on land will they make it all the way without stopping? Ive tested this several times and they wont do it without manual intervention.

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

Argggg. Yes I just noticed that with the AAV as well... So much for my beach landing.... Dam

[AI Amphibs have limited range on water]

aav7 will not go more than 1 mile in the water before they just stop for no reason.

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

Thanks for the feedback it's always appreciated. :thumbup:

 

Suntag - has anyone noticed that the lcac has limited range. If you place them say 4 miles off shore and have them head to the beach they will go for a will at 6 knots then stop. You can manually get them going again but they will run for a while then stop again.

[[REPORTED] Navigate through city]

Units still get stuck navigating around buildings. they hit a corner and they are done for the mission

[Combined Arms with 2.5 now worthy Mechanized warfare sim.]

Hopefully they will expand the modern line.. They still need to fix things though as units still get stuck near buildings.... all the time.

[LHA Amphibious Assault Package]

Thanks for Clearin' the decks Taylor.
