@BunnyKeeper Just checked out your track and also checked the mission itself. It all works fine from my end. As I have said I believe your problem is you are not using the correct key board buttons to bring up the correct radio menu. Once you have selected Aux 3 you need to select the correct button to bring up the menu. The standard button for Aux (Radio 2) radio menu in flight is "Rt Cntrl and /" I have a UK keyboard and have to use "Rt Cntrl and #" instead. You must use the correct buttons to bring up the correct radio menu otherwise the tanker will not respond. It is not enough just to select 3 on the Aux (Radio 2). This is explained in the link I sent previously. All works fine from my end. Hope this helps

So are you using the correct talk buttons to bring up the menu.

Hi @BunnyKeeper Are you using the correct talk buttons to communicate. They are different for on the ground, when using Radio 1 and when using radio 2. This may be the issue. It is explained in the brief notes. Regarding landing on the carrier not sure what that would be but ot would be a main Sim thing and not a Campaign scripting issue. I will take a look at the track. Hope this helps.

@Spartan111sqn Sorry the file was updated last Wednesday on the 22nd, my mistake.

· Mission 4: Wing AI crashing into ground fixed.

HI @Polonsky 1 What bingo fuel, holding pattern for own squad and decision altitude setting? No bingo fuel is given. The case 1 landing patterns are given and the stack height of 2000 feet is given under the flight plan under RTB, all on the kneeboard, also the flight plan heights between way points. 2 I have a suite of Campaigns starting with the free "Serpents Head" then "Serpents head 2" then this Campaign, "Rise of the Persian Lion" then "Rise of the Persian Lion2" and the last currently "Operation Green Line". The difficulty increasing through the campaigns. In this campaign as set out in the brief, " A lot of the communications are trigger based. Pilots will have to operate the radio for Carrier approaches and aerial refuelling." So in this campaign you do not need to worry about your wing, assume he is switching with you. The next Campaign ROPL2 you will have to operate the radios fully. The RTB instructions gave you the frequency plus also the instruction "Primary Push 2" so all you needed to do is select channel two on the Primary radio i.e. Comm 1. When you approached the ABE you did not get the Charlie signal to land so not sure why. Did notice though you were using Comm 2 in some instances? Have a look at Flying Kennys fly through. Also noted you did not have the ICLS active on the HSI or the Tacan boxed. Regarding to the coords. The audio will read them out and they will stay on screen for a period but then you have the option to call them back. They then will remain on screen until you press the space bar. You could also call them back even then using the message history system. Hope this helps.

HI @Polonsky Thanks for the track. Just checked this out. This is not a bug but a campaign design decision. When your wing gets close enough he is removed from the SIM so as not to conflict with the your landing on the carrier. Noticed you had quite a few attempts at landing. Had the wing not been removed he would have conflicted with your attempts. Have done two campaigns after this one and now adopt a kiss off system in these and control the wing. Think in time I will update this campaign in line with them. Noticed you entered the wrong coords and tried to locate the harboured subs with the Sea mode radar which will not work. Also, you had quite a lot of positional and level issues. I have attached Flying Kennys fly through of the mission which will hopefully help you. Cheers

Hi @Polonsky Will take a look when I get to my rig. Are you running any mods?

I am aware of this change to the AI's behaviour and have fixed it this end by a work round. Fix will be in next update. Cheers.

@speed-of-heat Ah OK thanks for the feed back. I didn’t place the kneeboard in any place specifically so assume it must be standard?

· Mission 7: HMVEE recently blocking aircraft and breaking mission fixed. · Mission 8: Landing F16s now break mission fixed.

· Mission 12 both variants: Broken SAM fail trigger fixed. · Missions 3 to 15 all variants: AWACS added for better SA

@speed-of-heat I know the one I will check the kneeboard there.

@speed-of-heat Which mission is this?

Hi @speed-of-heat Not sure what you mean. Could you explain. Do you mean a page has been added to the kneeboard? I have not added any pages.

Hi @5EVC Tiger Glad your enjoying the missions. Just looked at the scripting. Normally this failure will be prompted after a successful refuel by entering the second targets fail zone and then leaving without destroying the same. If you could send me a track file of your mission I will be able to see clearly what has happened and make sure there is not a new ED bug. Could you have entered the incorrect way point, anyway a track would tell all. Thanks

@DLEGION You are aware there is an AutoStart facility. 90% of pilots insist on a cold starts. You have the option.

@DLEGION Firstly you will appreciate that this mission was made about four years ago and has been flown by thousands of pilots without a problem. So if it is not working correctly then it is either a new bug or something you are doing. Firstly not sure what you mean by heading not stored. If you mean to create the shorter alignment process then that is available in this mission if you press the correct button on the HSI at the correct time. If this is not it please clarify. The first targets were given you via way points unlike the last which you have to enter the coordinates yourself. So make sure you are using the correct precise coordinate format. This video of this actual mission shows you how. Make sure you do exactly the same. Also below is a complete fly through of the mission by Flying Kenny. Hope this helps, if your still stuck send me your track so I can check things out. EDIT: Just saw your video on a bigger screen. Looks like you are not using the correct coordinate format. Follow the video I have sent you above. This is all explained in the brief. Extract below. "When entering 'Precision Coordinates' ensure they have been selected on the HSI / Data page. Button along bottom row. You will also need to select the correct entry format. This will be Degrees / Minutes / Seconds / Decimal Seconds. 00/00/00.00 The format can be selected on the HSI / Data /A/C page LATLN button which is bottom right."

@BunnyKeeper As briefed he will remain in formation, he will not refuel. He also will not run out of fuel. That is the problem, when commanding him to refuel thats when intermittently he goes AWOL. Cheers

Hi @BunnyKeeper Glad your enjoying the campaign. There isn't an issue with the mission, Due to an intermittent bug I had to change the refuel so that you refuelled on the right and your wing will just follow you. This is because for some pilots when given the refuel command the wing would dive away and break the mission. Until I am sure this is fixed this is the best option. Once you have refuelled on the left side all you need to do is keep move away from the tanker and the mission will continue. This is explained at the beginning of the in the game brief in capitals "DUE TO CURRENT REFUEL BUG YOUR WING WILL NOT PLUG BUT STAY IN FORMATION. YOU NOW MUST PLUG ON LEFT BASKET UNTIL BUG FIXED." and in the radio text which you received when close to the tanker. "TWO, LEAD YOU TAKE PORT SIDE FOR PLUG AS USUAL. NOTE: DUE TO RECENT DCS REFUEL BUG YOU MUST REFUEL PORT SIDE AND YOUR WING WILL REMAIN IN FORMATION. MOVE AWAY FROM TANKER WHEN COMPLETE." Hope this helps Cheers Badger

Hey @Hillman Glad you got it sorted and thanks for the feedback back as you’re not the first to raise this. But you are right, if in the computer release circle it should work. I have always given it a bit of welly going over that ridge so never had the issue.

Think you mean mission 13. This is how it is done. Hope this helps. All my other campaigns have AWACS support where relevant. Not been requested on this one over the last few years, but if you think it would help, we will where relevant provide more SA support in these campaign missions, hopefully in next update or if not in the one after definitely

Hey @Hillman Glad your enjoying them. If you could send me a Tacview or a Track I could see what you are doing. and hopefully help.

Thanks @omnijinx will take a look. Looking at mission plan, message comes at 19.7 miles to SAM, the red line kill range is 13.4 miles. The idea is if you both do a 180 as soon as you get the warning you will have both cleared the 13.4 mile kill range. That's how I have always flown the mission. Notice you kept flying to the SAM until your wing was hit. Hope this helps.

Just checked, no, the audio definitely comes 6 NM before the indicated launch zone and that's in plan. The actual launch will be even later due to the spherical zone and higher altitude of your aircraft.
