I can place trains on the mission editor, they then disappear when I load the mission. Has DCS gone this far with trains still in this condition?

I have the basic trigger system down for mission editor. What I have been trying to do is set up a system that randomly spawns aircraft. My goal is to fly around searching for ground targets while enemy aircraft randomly spawn to attack me. Maybe one will spawn and another will spawn right after and I need to deal with two air craft at once. Or, after I shoot an aircraft another will not spawn for some time. I have been trying to create multiple trigger zones that randomly assign flag values from 1-10 each time my plane flies into one. Then I assign three enemy plan groups (enemy group 1 spawns when flag equals 1... enemy group two spawns when flag equals two etc.... Flags from 4-10 spawn nothing). Sounds like it should work but it does not. Any suggestions? Sometimes only one group will spawn regardless of how many trigger zones I make and fly into (one time I made 20 trigger zones!!) and other times none will spawn.

Copied both files (lua and dlg), installed both into saved game folders. It worked until I changed the font size in the LUA file. Since I did that it wont work AT ALL... I have since deleted the files, copied and pasted fresh ones literally a dozen times now, tried it on DCS Beta, used notepad ++, repaired DCS, reinstalled DCS, and it still does not work... I find it strange how it was working just fine until I opened the one file (deleted and replaced by original file multiple times now) just to change the font size setting. I suspect that Windows is somehow to blame for this, probably not reading the extensions properly since opening them or something. However, I even made sure that lua and dlg files are opened from notepad by default. I am very confused on what is going on here, have been racking my brain for hours now. Is there something wrong with the registry or something??? Do I need a clean install of windows!!!!

This option is not available in all scenarios... When it is available you have to start from the beginning inputting 9 line coordinates because your radio erases what you have scratched in when it pops up on the UFC... as I already said at the beginning of this thread...

Thanks!!!!

Are there any in game scratch pad mods or anything???

I use a VR headset so I cant really write anything down while playing. That being said, is there anyway to slow down JTAC coordinates so that I can actually input them? I have to input from the start each time I ask for clarification.

F/A-18C Aggressors BFM Campaign I purchased this campaign and am noticing MAJOR hit in FPS when I play it in VR. When I play other campaigns I do not notice this hit. Not too sure if this is normal or if we need an update or what... Also, where are the PDF manuals for this campaign located? I checked in the usual folder but it is not there.

YUUUUP!!!!

Can someone please review this video and give some insight on why I dont have a TACAN beacon on my HSI or distance on my HUD. I am only missing this information when I select TACAN on a carrier. The video below has no sound, but I can hear the Morse Code from the TACAN beacon. As you can see, I select TCN on the HSI and no information displays, nor can I select a course line.

I uploaded it again... Should be public now

I got the signal, just no TACAN beacon or heading selection on my HSI.

Video!! Here is a video of my problem as described. There is no audio but I do hear the TCN beacon when I turn on the TCN volume. When I select a TCN at an airfield I do not have this problem. I only have this problem with carriers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKetnz67HvY&feature=youtu.be

Any reason why I can no longer get aircraft carrier TCN to show on my MFCD and HUD? I can get the Morse Code but nothing far as range or bearing.
