So it's not just me? I turned in the break, put gear and flaps down, slot machine on left DDI and ejected. Thought the drugs had taken hold of me...

I can't launch with this installed. I can never make it past the splash screen and have to force quit. Any ideas?

Any word on this ever getting fixed?

Ok. So that fixed the error at the end of missions, but the FirstMission.bat still gives me errors.

Here you go:

When I install Hornet over Caucasus (or over PG, or multirole) I get several errors. First if I run the FirstMisison.bat I get an error that ..\..\..\..\..\..\..\bin\luae.exe: Scripts/UTIL_ResetCampaign.lua:17: attempt to index local 'campFile' (a nil value) stack traceback: Scripts/UTIL_ResetCampaign.lua:17: in main chunk [C]: in function 'dofile' Scripts/BAT_FirstMission.lua:192: in main chunk [C]: ? C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Missions\EN\Campaigns\Hornet over Caucasus-CVN> Also, if I do complete a mission, I get an error box that pops up at the end with a lua error as well. The next mission is generated, but the losses are not. (sorry don't have pic of that error currently, and yes my MissionScripting.lua has been modified).

Same. I am quite excited about the new AI changes. Hopefully it continues in a positive direction.

1. Allow us to see what the speed set in the ME is as IAS, not just ground speed!! It's super difficult to set up tankers, etc when you don't really know what speed they are at altitude. 2. Change coalitions, and allow for more saved coalition settings. 3. Neutral coalition, or a 3rd coalition would be amazing, although I understand this will probably require more of an AI/engine re-write than the scope of this thread.

I noticed that now "Declare" does appear in the AWACS menu, but it doesn't seem to work. Anyone else have this?

A while ago there was a bug reported on the forums. Here https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=227160&highlight=ai+wingman+refuelNow, it would appear that your wingmen do refuel external tanks, but only if you have a hot start. If you have a cold start, they still only fill up to 100% full internal fuel, and do not fill ANY external tanks. I am working on getting a track file up, but a bit difficult with the whole having to cold start, fly to tanker, and then go from there. Can anyone else confirm this? METHOD: Create mission, put wingman+you low fuel percentages with external tanks. Takeoff in air and wingman will refuel up to full amount (can see in SA page). Reset with a cold start however, wingman only ever refuels up to 10.8, which is only internal fuel, no tanks.

LTOD on the HUD is not implemented yet.

Is there a way to de-select the STEP target on the SA page or otherwise "undesignate" the target and get the cursor back? I have tried the undesignate key with the SA as the SOI. So it would appear if the SA page is on the right DDI change the SA page from SOI and coming back removes the STEP, however if you have the SA page on the MPCD you cannot remove the STEP target. WIP I guess.

Same issue here. Track attached. Callsign.trk

I know the ADV line moves to the MPCD, however if you watch the track attacked, you can clearly see the INS alignment and other information that is projected UNDER the ADV line is now darkened. Is this normal or a bug? BIT HSI Bug.trk

When you have the BIT page up on the left DDI and the HSI map on the MPCD, the HSI text goes black at the bottom. Track attached. BIT HSI Bug.trk

I can confirm what Xtacy said about the crash. If you select different station from JDAM page vs what is on stores page, game freezes. Have to use task manager to kill it. Obviously can't get crash logs or track files for you because of this, sorry.

With multiple JDAM types, if you switch between them, the 10 min alignment countdown starts over. This seems to occur even if the alignment has completed.

Any chance we can get the F-14 to be able to do the AFAC task in the mission editor? I know this was a big task of F-14Ds later in their life, and it'd be nice to have this option in the mission editor for AI F-14s!

If you check the SA page you can see a wingman just after topping off at tanker doesn't fill external tank.

E-2, E-3, F-15C, F-15E, F-16C Blk52, F-18 (lot 20 and AI) are the "contributors". The A-10C, B-1, B-52 appear on SA page but don't contribute information to it.

I used a tanker with 29Y and 63Y as TACAN (KC-135MPRS) and it worked. Same setup with 1X, 2X, or 2Y as TACAN, no go. Also, it seems I cannot turn off TACAN if D/L is on. If D/L off, I can turn TACAN off and on, but if I turn D/L on, it automatically turns TACAN on. Is this accurate behavior? These were all with air starts, btw.

On the new SA page, the BRA information is relative to the aircraft, rather than cardinal directions. Thus, it is only correct if you have a heading of 000. For example, if you have a heading of 090 and an aircraft directly off your 3 o'clock, the SA page reports the BRA heading as 090, when it should be 180. bra.trk

I know that. I was wondering if this would be changed to reflect the actual aircraft, which does have AAR capability; if there was any word or speculation on that.

Currently, it is not possible to give a Su-30 flight a refueling waypoint. With a new model (hopefully soon) will this be corrected? Or is the modeled variant unable to AAR?

Prior to the new model of the Su-34 (which is awesome by the way) it could carry R-77 missiles on several different pylons (centerline, wing, outer wing). Now it can only load them on the outer wingboard pylons. Is this updated to more accurately reflect real life characteristics, or is this a bug?
