Help testing and maybe it will go faster! :)

Hey PAK & page for blueside crapped out on this 4h cycle. (14:34 zulu time)

What is the cap/pickup range from airbases & farps again? (Troops CTLD etc.) I remember something like 5 km... btw Greg made it sound like slingloads weren't in because of stabillity issues. Could we maybe then tweak the script a bit? Hovering 10seconds above a crate I can't see - without cargo cam is streching my flying skills to the limits.^^ Also having issues refueling a heli (mi8) at some FARPs at mission start. (BE-TL for example)

Helicopter insertion *cough*cough*

Some action on the server right now! :) edit: over :( Lively fight between 373 & 42VFG!

Just tested it and I was unable to load/see JTAC via the CTLD menu. I tried in a Mi-8 from FARP & Airport. (MK-SA&SA) On the other hand I just killed myself and CSAR script reacted... Looks like it works. :)

Is this the right IP for the server? 89.163.173.82:10308 I can't see it on the list or connect, but this page http://opblueflag-buddyspike.rhcloud.com/ says it's online and somebody is even online right now. ^^

Looks great, how would I go about testing a JTAC? Where do I get / activate one?

Could use some CAS to get this testing going... ^^ *seed* edit: also are there plans to add Mirage & L39? As somebody who does a lot of GCI, IFF issues don't bother me too much. :) Second question, I saw on some public stress test mission on buddyspike that you guys were testing the CSAR script. Any chance for getting a test run with it in blueflag? I love the idea of not only sitting around and waiting for a troop insertion but flying around trying to rescue pilots and return team lives. (Also CTLD assets plx^^)

Years gone by, still no love from devs. Honestly I haven't touched the MiG-21 in a long time because of this, I am just too annoyed by this. A buddy asked today if he should buy it, after explaining the situation (since release!) with the weapon selector (and similar commands) he reconsidered. MiG-21 still not finished. :)

From the first mission briefing:'SEE INCLUDED MISSION BRIEFING PACKET FOR FULL MISSION BRIEFING DETAILS' Anyone know where I can find them? Not in yet perhaps?

Not live yet.

Hah, nice! 186 :)

Why? Blueflag is not running atm, didn't you read this page?

Can somebody up it for me pls? I am on holiday for 2 more days and traffic limit is an issue. Thx

This is great news, looking forward to test blueflag out again. Any chance to see slingloads added soon? All the heli pilots love the new slingload features..^^

My Idea would be to change the 'adjust rope length' slider for Helicopters from the mission editor to the rearming and refueling window. Mission builders never touch this and I would love to have this decision in the pilots hands (and check what length it is currently set as). :)

I would love this, as an idea, this could even be clickable like in other sims, where you 'click' the plug for your headphones etc.

While this way will make the 'realism!' crowd very angry, there might be a compromise in here. What about making some kind of small placeable airfield that is placeable like FARPS in the mission editor? Perfect for some kind of fictional setting and we won't hurt overall realism of the map. (Since realism / balancing etc. is in mission builders hand) sorry for OT, I just wanted to float the idea, carry on^^

I want to go to Las Vegas! :D

Nope.

Yeah gotta ask about the bird, anyone manage to hit it? :D

Thx for your response, sounds awesome! :) Do you think it would be worth it to petition BST/ED in the wishlist forums, to add a triggerfor this? Like, when I push the siren, trigger X gets used which you could use to spawn/embark units? I will try the new truck as soon as I find a server with the updated script. edit: sometimes assets explode after being deploying, does this have to do with damaged cargo?

I want to give feedback a bit from a normal pilot/user perspective. First, thank you so much for this script, I can't even describe how much I love this script. Slingloading and building stuff with this is such a blast, that every server without some transport job now looks bleak to me. :) If my questions are naive or not possible due to engine limitations etc. please forgive me, I am not an active mission builder or admin. First, is it possible to add some kind of rearming truck/crate for assets in the field? edit: I know this is somewhat possible with SAMs but I think there is some kind of rearming vehicle (supply trucks?) for CA units with which you can rearm? Secondly, could there maybe be some kind of different version how the crate spawn / pickup works? My current problem is that you need to land (or atleast afaik) in the 'pickup' zone to spawn the crate for pickup. My idea would be to have for example, TOW, SAM's etc. in a row as 'models' and their crates in front of it. One you pick up the cargo crate, it respawns for the next pilot. It would somewhat compromise DCS lack of groundcrew bees who prepare stuff for the air assets.^^ (Maybe I am over complicating stuff, but I thought this might be a good idea) Third, could the 'cargo crates radio sub menu' maybe be put directly under the F10 sub menu, instead under 'CTLD commands'? As a frequently crashing/dying/suiciding pilot one of the biggest problems after a quick insertion is to navigate the radio menu with shaking hands, drop stuff, and fly off again. As a matter of fact this might be nice too for the troop load/unload command. I guess unloading of troops can't be done by the Mi-8 siren button? :D Again everything from user perspective, not mission builder, I am not sure if the stuff I am asking is more in the mission builders park. THANKS AGAIN FOR THIS AWESOME STUFF! <3 edit2: To ALL mission builders, PLEASE use this script to give Transport pilots some job! Just check it out, it's great fun! :)

I want to formally protest the 'aircraft explode'-trigger in OP Armageddon when you enter a not yet active A2G area. 15 secs is way too fast, before I even realised what was going on and started to turn back I could read my kill message in chat. I will accept cargo&slingload operations for helicopters as compensation, you shall have NOOBAIRLINES(!), coupons in return. Free Travel&Cargo delivery!
