Bonus track to the previous method Four of my buddies helped to me to test the datalink bug. 3 of the 4 client enemy plane burn in to the datalink picture. Replay only with 2.5.5.33184 EnemyGhostclients-20190713-214950-ewr_on-4client.trk

lightweight reproduction + progress I made a lightweight reproduction method. Time saving compared to the real world mission. I once even restarted OS, I reproduced 3 times and recorded a video what you should see after all steps. (3 of 5 enemy bombers stuck on screen and the awacs's old position by EWR) Steps -optional restart windows -restart DCS -play track (EnemyGhostclients-20190801-195010_2,5,5,34108blueEWR+redbombers.trk) until end - very short ;-) (two menu actions done: EWR site activation, 5 enemby bombers activation; you can do it live on your standalone server, but after reload the mission) -familiarize with datalink picture at track ending state: -run standalone server -load this mission in standalone server (https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=213694&stc=1&d=1563040691) with this same mission the track was created -join to local server (do not initiate menu actions) -choose any flanker slot -turn on datalink -If you do everything in the right way, the result: The "expected" result in video: -optionally spawn any time you want -optionally reconnect to server and examine datalink screens again EnemyGhostclients-20190713-185853-replayAfterFreshStart.trk EnemyGhostclients.miz EnemyGhostclients-20190801-195010_2,5,5,34108blueEWR+redbombers.trk

Addition: play this mission on the local STANDALONE server (track and track data folders removed and renamed to .miz) https://drive.google.com/open?id=1CSSu5NTnjarwsSm70_-AUbx1FdvnLZ2r (7_Op_Abruzzi_V4-forPhantomDatalinkContactsReproduction.miz) and join to it after the track replay completed. (You need FC3 for the J-11A in cockpit view) You will see a lot of dead (In original gameplay CLIENT) contacts from the replay.

I saw the mission is highly improved. The trick is for Kh-29T is the adjustment of the target box size. I successfully AC locked the MBT and deployed that missile. But I failed with the KAB-500Kr, with AC lock guided bomb fallen in unguided mode. I tried several times to wait for launch authorization, but bomb not launched. Minimum and maximum ranges overlapped almost every time. Then I pushed weapon release early and hold, then bomb released in unguided mode. (No track, LastMissionTrack.trk not saved by DCS) EDIT:KAB-500Kr case solved, need to use above 1500m and wait for Launch Authorize

I'm on the whining side. japo32's "F14 Clean Label Cockpits" mod is a good start (https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3303911/) but still not pass Integrity Check.

To give them more time: replay the track and after the landing press ESC and select TAKE CONTROL and halt the fans manually and ask for repair manually in the friendly airfield. You will see there is no countdown for repair.

2.5.5.33184 Please hear us, ED! Stennis is a flagship ship product! How hard to fix it? EDIT: I forget to mark in the picture the "missing" net under the 74 sign.

ED, please say us something still happening in 2.5.5.33184 at 0:21 seconds

Bug catched My post #9's (or 8 because one deleted before) track is able to reproduce the bug at any time. Steps: -Start DCS fresh -Play the track https://drive.google.com/file/d/15OzSt9sziyjerSJVC3Q447N7lv0F-bC1/view (optionally at 2x speed) - until the end -watch this screenshot, you will seach for this pattern: (the four enemy constellation at left center) -start local DCS server -load the previously played track as a mission (rename to .miz) to the server -connect to local server -choose the first RED J-11A in Mozdok, take off (or choose a su33 at Vaziani...) -turn on datalink, and fly towards Beslan -in surprise you will see the played track last live contacts in the private new multiplayer game in invalid dead unmoving contacts -be aware: if you fly low until meet the pattern short range sams will kill you The four enemy known by play track ending in a public MP server: (one true enemy fly there)

As Irk26 said My buddys track for Stennis case in the same server. 2 Hornet slots used on the anchored stennis, third and fourth was not selectable for him, even after the Su-33 was taken off from runway (me) -> the Stennis deck was all clear https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YNrxBWaKES-b8VHIbZN4T8ozM4Rnk1dJ (BATTLEFIELD-20190710-203456_Anchored_Stennis_unwanted_wait_2slotUsedOf4.trk) ((After this track recorded I've taken the third and fourth Horent slot without any problem: a mystery))

Above track I pass the phantom pair around 20h 58m mission clock. I saw those in replay until I not exited from the game. Here are the ingame screenshots. Please fix datalink initialization or filter out unmoving contacts! Those are not reported by AWACS via radio. Happening too in small scale missions with 8 players! (4xHornet, 4xJ-11A; I saw yesterday at least 10 enemy, the max real number was 5 with the blue AWACS) I prefer not to restart DCS before every MP mission that uses flanker datalink!

still hurt us in 2.5.5.33184 Opening post updated with track. Please fix it! Old bug.

the Gripen inspired track of ground crew fail (touchdown around 200 kmph) 2,5,5,33184_su27_twistedUndercarriage-NotRepair-stall.trk

Real world example, bump The swedish repair this kind of damage, maybe DCS mechanics too one day. +note: that rear tyre is bursted

It seems to working your mission in first run But every error shown as "aw shoot" (as in spitfire)

In current (2.5.5.33184) aerobatic multiplayer mission why we cannot able to inhibit the use for sidewinders for hornets in the land bases for pylon 2 and pylon 8? Despite all is set to zero in all airfields, 100 of each available via LAU-127. Is this a bug?

Occured with 2.5.5.33184 This time again in the 104th Server after 14+ hours runtime. This time replay shows at least one phantom enemy pair: EDIT-UNITL exit from DCS I takeoff from Mozdok in J-11A, the pair is in helo mode with great velocity vector, I fly over the pair and return unharmed to Beslan, enemy pair still not change state after I parked.

Cable stretch bug across two Stennis As I said earlier. In the current openbeta. 2,5,5,33184twoStennis,firstStretchedTwiceWithSecond.trk

Oh, SPRD-99 in the AG-ROCKETS section. Please see this is as a bug report! +It should be in "misc" category.

And someone could create a list of the MiG-21 specific items in the warehouse? I found the ASO chaff+flare pod as "ASO-2" other things why not this simple?

I'm still waiting for waypoint number indication what Wags promised to us.

Proof in 2.5.5.32533 Quite often happening on Aerobatics Online Caucasus Release and OpenBeta servers around Batumi and around Sochi-Gudauta-Sukhumi. I once flied with company, my wingman experienced the water flickerings too in the Hornet cockpit, my plane was Su-25A. (Senaki to Sochi then back to Sukhumi.) Yes, weather is dynamic. This time I attached a single player clone track. With all triggers removed. aerobaticsOnlOBclone-waterflickering-SP2.trk https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yQ2aHJJgpInQ3lQ4rt26WOIq1v2VQwe0 aerobaticsOnlOBclone-waterflickering-SP-Settings.jpg https://drive.google.com/open?id=1A5Ncj0BuLSrByP-Khc875X53NhAjy3au My eyes are ready for the upcoming fix.
