Hello programmers ^^
I think I've found a little bug that can be quite annoying if you're not careful:
The getGroups() function does not return the same thing between a “normal” server and a dedicated serverOn a dedicated server, it “invents” as many groups as there are units in a Client's group.
Example with 3 red groups :
1 group of 3 Mig21 (including one client)
1 group of 2 Mig23
1 group of 2 Mig29Here's what the function returns on a “normal” server:
and here's what the function returns on a dedicated server:
I'm attaching the script file I used and a test mission.

ok, thanks for the feedback

Thank you for looking into it. The hornet campaign (TF80s - blue) is that one causing problems - destruction of ground objects (airbases, bridges) is not updated to campaign target list(?). However, destruction of SAM sites and EWR installations is correct.
here's the latest version of Scriptsmod, it's not yet finalized, so save everything before using it ^^.
It fixes a few bugs, notably that of non-compatible targets.
(cf UTIL_changelog.lua)
-
there must be another module (integrated into DCE or not) like mist or something else, which reactive env.setErrorMessageBoxEnabled()
In the future version, I'll activate it 2 times, one with a delay (30 or 60s)
for the destruction on the ground, I have to test, it will be a little longer ^^. -
nulldid you apply the missionScripting mod to give DCE access to certain parts of DCS?

it's boring ^^
can you push me your mission? -

Something must be bad:
the last error message is probably because you have enabled conf_mod :
debugInGamePopup = false,it must be set to false, otherwise the slightest bug (and there are some, as it's sometimes difficult to know when an object can or cannot be queried) will block the game.

And again,the same campaign (TF80s - Blue) and the same problem with bridges
I didn't understand.
Do you mean that the destruction of bases and bridges is not counted?In the next mission, in the game (DCS), do they appear destroyed or not?
Which version of scriptsMod are you using?

It's constantly looping generating the mission ant tells me "Not enough ready aircraft for all clients.."
OK, thanks, I'll look into it.
In the meantime, I think you can force a SEAD if you designate a target yourselffor option D, it was necessary to be able to play solo on a dedicated server.
In MP, the parameters are already implemented

For those who don't see DCE_Manager updates:
QuoteV6.12.39
fix: downloading an update to DCE_Manager creates an empty ZIP with a certain type of serverV6.12.38
mod: configuration management revisited
mod: different display of bug windows
mod: robustification of campaign installations, either full (all files available) or light (only the campaign folder and .miz and .cmp files).
and for those who haven't seen the latest ScriptsMod update, we're moving to version 483 (20.79.483).
However, this should update correctly via DCE_Manager
(let me know if it doesn't, in which case I'll post the scriptsMod 483 zip here)Quoteknown issues:
- [pedro] lands on another ship instead of CV or LHA
- [target] a squadron is assigned to a target while another squadron (identical type&task) is based closer to it.
- [stats] stats for your own package are rarely displayed==:20.79.483:==
483 added [release] merging files for publication
482 fixed [generator] -nan(ind) bug again ...
481 fixed [generator][MP] no selection possible in PM when requesting an escort type task only (Sead etc...)
480 fixed [generator] -nan(ind) bug
479 fixed [CLSID] add the new parameters for bombs and GBUs if they exist (M79)
478 added [LatLon] add GPS-type information (latitude, longitude) for targets. (M78)
This will allow CampaignMaker to completely hide the units on the F10 map.
(because before, this was the only way of recovering precise positions for GBU missions and the like).
It's still an archaic method (which requires live reception in the DCS game), but I hope to add an autonomous LatLon information function in DCE_Manager (later... ^^)
477 modified [loadout][restricted] the prohibited items can now evolve over the course of the campaign. CampaignMaker must add them to a Loadouts folder, then activate them in the camp_triggers_init.lua file with the new function: Action.RestrictedLoadout(file)
476 fixed [weather] clouds are always lower than airports at altitude
475 fixed [VSN_F105] the required module name is not correct
474 added [dataMap] marianaislands locationForEphemeris
473 fixed [country] new countries in templates are not added automatically
472 fixed [ejectedPilot] borders were no longer calculated, so ejected pilots no longer appeared
471 modified [loadout] WOB Mirage F1 Strike (correction)
470 modified [Spotter] we continue to integrate it (border, fireBase, only the marker, impact time, add smoke etc...)==:20.76.469:==
469 fixed [loadout] WOB Mirage F1 Strike
468 fixed [generator] very few or no red flights
467 modified [Spotter] modified CG_ArtySpotter script (merge Solo&MP), from Don Rudi
466 fixed [loadout] an error display problem
465 added [DCE_Manager] new DCEM_Function file to link with DCE_Manager
464 added [loadout] V166 - F-4E for WOB - OH-58D
463 added [Spotter] add CG_ArtySpotter script, from Don Rudi (M77 testing...) thanks again for the permission to use his script
462 fixed [frequency] SA342 frequency outside authorized ranges (again ^^) -
following the download problem you had, I tried to correct it.
Here is the latest version

My DCE Manager states that it has a new version available but just downloads an empty ZIP File. Where can I find the new version?
Hi, there,
What exactly is the name of the zip?And which server are you connected to?
thank you

As mentioned before - to clarify - it is not the bug of the ASTI tool - it is a bug in the mission file due to several scripts running there and colliding.
Without those the ASTI tool works great.
nullBefore / after
Yes, I think it's a bug DCE_Manager\ASTI
The program needs to be able to put back the same number of backslashes
but I'm working on it ^^

After installing the DCS Manager I got the message that DCS Manager has no access to an options file that is in my documents folder cause another process is using it?!
When I use the ASTI tool (which is great - really) I can process everything as described in the manual. But when I return back to ME and want to load the miz-File I get an error message.
I can see also that the file seems not to get closed properly by the ASTI tool.
the post above has been resolved by updating the version of DCE_Manager.
Try it with this one:
If the bug persists, can you post me the original files (miz and template) and the final mission (.miz)?
thanks-

I was testing this morning and noticed that when trying to add multiple static templates (using the same template) at the same time I am getting several templates, one on top of the other. I tried adding 3 templates to one mission. Each marker had the correct ASTI_ prefix and were numbered -1, -2, and -3. For each marker, it added the template, plus the suffix number so I ended up with 2, 3, and 4 templates at each of the markers.
ha, interesting
can you push me your basic mission (with the asti prefixes already added) and the template(s)?
If possible? -
thanks for these tests, they're great
We hadn't thought about the vehicle routes either ^^.
So it's normal for there to be inconsistencies, because it's trying to stick its path (certainly) on an existing road.
There, I could only put ‘offroad’, I don't see any other solution.
The paths are written ‘hard’ in the DCS code, we won't have access to them, apart from the ME.-

G'day Folks,
A quick question: What is the "Clone Campaign" function for? When would you use it?
Many thanks.
Sent from my SM-G998B using Tapatalk
Cloning a campaign means you can play the same campaign with several different types of aircraft.
Previously, Cef had to offer as many campaigns as aircraft types:
Hornet over Caucasus
Harrier over Caucasus
Tomcat over Caucasus etc...
But, basically, it's the same campaign.With this cloning system, Cef offers you 2 variants of the same campaign:
WOC-Blue
WOC-RedIt's then up to you to clone the campaign if you want to
WOC-Blue-F-14
WOC-Blue-F18
and so on.It's simpler for us, and more flexible for you.

And still like that with no stop.
Any idea what the problem is?
Thanks in advance.
Well, we're taking it one step at a time ^^ (sorry)
I haven't had time to test it properly, but here's the latest ScriptsMod which should fix that (hopefully it won't break anything else)

Thanks a lot, but still not working
Does this version solve the problem?
(I don't really believe it, but )
If not, does this bug prevent the rest of the program?

Hi @Miguel21, yes I do. I always follow the flightplan. Jester reports every waypoint and switches to the next just fine. On the F10 map it is just not recognised.
Update: I just flew a Strike mission and here to my wingmen returned to waypoint 1. When engaged by SAM they ditched there payload as well. I believe they should not do that either.
so, in SEAD, I suppose the only order they should be given is to attack the SAMs.
In Strike, whether or not to jettison the stores is a discussion I've had several times with CEF, and ... we don't agree
From his point of view: a Strike flight that is intercepted ‘must’ jettison its stores.
The emergency jettison is therefore activated, and I suppose they have the same logic for SAMs.-

Hi @Miguel21 after downloading the last update when I run the DCE manager appears this message
Any idea what to do?
Hello
access to the Documents\DCE_Manager\log.txt file is blocked or locked by another or old process.so... restart the computer
and if it still doesn't work, delete this file, see the DCE_Managere directory-

Yes, I can’t hit anything with the Shrike so no surprise there. The issue is more that the wingmen return to waypoint 1 when you give the command to ‘attack primary and rejoin’.
I did find a workaround by ordering to attack air defenses.
in SEAD, the package does not have a ground target assigned (as in Strike), so it is normal for this command not to work.
On the other hand, it's more surprising that they come back in WPT1.
During your flight, do you pass (all together) on this WPT1?
incorrect functioning of getGroups() [only dedicated server]

thanks for the confirmation ^^
And yes, if you take away the AI in the player training, it goes back to normal.
That said (and this is what made me look for this error), if N Client (unit) plays in a player's group, this creates N more group.
And that's not normal ^^.
and it makes our scripts work in unexpected ways
