Great!

Uhmmmm...

In nevada, the heading from the pilot NPP is wrong. It goes about 25 degrees to the left when an instructor gets in the cockpit.

I heard/read the drag is massive so your Time of Flight/range is considsrably reduced. That missile was designed for big bombers like Tu22... And the cost of each... How many where manufactured?

Strongly recommended...

Shit happens! Specially to me, all the time!

I am a newby with lua but... local unit = Unit.getByName(Heli[n].name) "n" i guess should be the variable i=1,#Heli. You did it with thr Oil using "j" Why don you use local unit = Unit.getByName(Heli.name) Also, the iteration i=1... Is secuencial I think. If you are using the Heli numer two and there is no One it stops I think. But again i am a newby

I am doing a script where I first do some teleports and spawns and then I use mist.makeUnitTable({'[red]'}). It does not work... and may be it is because since I created new units through the teleport... How to get the list of the current units??

For once! I did it ok!!! May be I can remove that line... I ll see, and let you know. Edit: it works by removing the line " if status== true..." with "if target different nil..." is enough. Great!!

find attached the mission file. If I work with SA15 Tor it works, however... for an SA3, I execute the function with both the SR and the TR, and nothing happens. Let see if we can find out why..!!! EW vietnam.miz

I tried all units from the group of SAM. I put a SR a TR and the LN (SA3)... I give them the name and I call the function chekEWR('unit') And only works with Tor...

Hello again... so here is my headache. I want to make a script, where... If a unit called "Misty1" which is a sabre aircraft, is advised when it is being tracked by a radar.... So it is a homemade RWR. The problem is as mentioned to you, with a Tor it works perfect, I hear the alarm and I can read the message, but when I use a SAM battery SA3, SA10, etc... I cant make it work. sabres = {'Misty1','Misty2','Misty3','Misty4'} function checkEWR(samunit) local UnitObject = Unit.getByName(samunit) if UnitObject ~= nil then local status, target = UnitObject:getRadar() -- main function. if status == true then -- to see if the Radar is working if target ~= nil then -- to see if it is engaging a target, this seems to be the problem. It works with Tor but not with other battery SAMs with SR, TR and LN units in it. local targetname = target:getName() for k, v in pairs(sabres) do -- to see if a unit from the list "sabre" is detected local sabrename = sabres[k] if targetname == sabrename then local targetID = target:getGroup():getID() trigger.action.outSoundForGroup(targetID, "alert.wav") trigger.action.outTextForGroup(targetID, "ALERT SAM!",20) end end end end end timer.scheduleFunction(checkEWR, samunit, timer.getTime() + 8) end

So, it seems my script is not well configured because i check first if the unit has radar. And probably this return false. I think i know what is the problem then. I ll let you know if its fine. Thanks as always!

There is a message saying the location and frec. Of the rescue. Use your ADF sintonize it.

What I meant, is that the system automatically lock the closer radar which is closer to your heading. Instead of representig the lock in the HUD, it automatically calculates which is the radar in parameters. Once you fire, it goes to such SAM... So basically you are indeed locking on the target, but you do nothing.

Strongly recommended.

What a pitty... I love Wild weasel missions. Even with rockets and CBUs!

Wouldnt be possible to lock the target automatically, 1 second before firing?. I mean, you press the fire button, the calculations are made to see if is there any SAM in parameters, and then this is locked on, and fired. You only need to point at. I think, this could work. You can fire sidewinders without locking on the target too.

Hello, Grimes. I am not able to make this function to work in SAMS batteries. But it works when we are using sa10 tor... i want to know when a plane is tra ked by a SAMs Any other sugestion?

I forgot this!!! see this file, from line 1759 to 1772. i modified the Beacons.lua file. You will find the file in DCS world/Mods/terrains/CaucasusBase You can put the Tacan everywhere... I added one for sochi, as attached to the airport. And also three others... you just need to put another line with the following this schqueme. TACAN(27, 'X', 'SCI',coordinates("44'09'14N 39'45'24E 1")) this would be a TACAN 27X with "SCI" morse code at coordenates described below. Beacons.lua

it is curious... the above script is the initial step to collect all red units with Radar SAM... well. It works, only for the SA15 Tor, but it does not work for any other unit belonging to a SAM battery. Not even the SR or TR unit types. also this, does not work. It seems that getRadar does not work too in the following script. I want to make a script where aircrafts without EWR receive a warning sound. It works with SA15 Tor but not with full batteries as mentioned. function checkEWR(samunit) local UnitObject = Unit.getByName(samunit) if UnitObject ~= nil then local status, target = UnitObject:getRadar() if status == true then -- to see if the Radar is working if target ~= nil then -- to see if it is engaging local targetname = target:getName() for k, v in pairs(sabres) do local sabrename = sabres[k] if targetname == sabrename then -- to see if the tracked aircraft is the one on the list. sabrename = {} local targetID = target:getGroup():getID() trigger.action.outSoundForGroup(targetID, "alert.wav") trigger.action.outTextForGroup(targetID, "ALERT SAM!",20) end end end end end end

:D.Agm45?

I dint use triggerzones to spawn infantry groups. I only put groups with 8 infantry, named extract1, extract2, etc.... and the helicopter with pilot name helicargo1, helicargo2... etc. And that's it. You can pick them up, wherever they are, and drop, wherever you want..

There is a post about it. I ll send you my file explaining later, ok?
