+1 this would really be a handy feature , I guess to be realistic it could be changed at anytime (eg on ground or flying etc just not if u currently have something attached to it ?

bad news hombre, currently DCS dedicated server is broken with lag issues and a memory leak, so I had one server instance using 27G of RAM You can use at least 3 servers on one account (maybe more but I have never tried)

this might help

I have not flown much since the 2.9 patch completely destroyed multiplayer, it is not much fun when stuff is warping all over the place

Yeah I get that, what I do not understand is why the release version of DCS change log says nothing about the current issues with multiplayer If you know something is broken it is a good idea to let people know this ..... that way you might get less reports of a bug you already know about, which will in turn mean you guys have less threads to reply to with ... "Yes we already know that MP has issues and we are working to fix them" Does that make any sense ?

no it is not fixed yet and ED even pushed out the change notes for release version DCS with the same BUG... and didnt even mention MP is broken

yes 1. they locked the thread so we cannot give any useful feedback or help to each other 2. They released the same broken version into Release branch of DCS 3. They did NOT mention in the release patch notes that MP is pretty much unusable right now

This is of course missing from the patch notes

there is no Work around , ED next to sort this out

Just tried it out, the mission loads fine I was able to pick a slot arm the aircraft etc

then it might be prudent to update this new patch notes the same way the last one was eg

Has the Multiplayer issues been resolved yet ? I dont see any text at the top that says bug is still present

it might be easier to post your MIZ fie here and lets others try it (assuming you want this bug fixed)

maybe check the subforum all about scripting ? https://forum.dcs.world/forum/1160-scripting-tips-tricks-issues/

there is a thread reporting this, but as usual it was locked So if anyone finds a work around for these issues, .... we will never know

@Grimes thanks I really appreciate the update

@Grimes with some new stuff in 2.9 DCS will slmod be updated ? spotted this error in log today 2023-11-18 15:05:24.407 ERROR Lua::Config (Main): Call error world.onEvent:[string "-- slmod world events hook..."]:371: attempt to index local 'lgroup' (a nil value) stack traceback: [C]: ? [string "-- slmod world events hook..."]:371: in function 'addToDB' [string "-- slmod world events hook..."]:591: in function <[string "-- slmod world events hook..."]:428>.

I just checked Github, MIST is being updated to deal with these issues , just hold fast I am sure it will be fixed soon

Yes it errors for me as well

Can you please post exact details on how to do this, ED wont attempt to fix it until a TRK file is provided to them, so we are ALL screwed until ED gets this and it able to debug what is going wrong You would be really helping us all out if you just posted a TRK file, but it is your choice

+1 to this, when I switch I am zoomed in a lot more in the front seat and it is a PITA

Is the dedicated server using more memory in the 2.9 update? Yes for sure it is, had 28 players on our server last week , DCS server was using 27G of RAM

first there was "I believe I can fly" ... now with DCS 2.9 I give u ..... "I Believe I can swim backwards"

Since 2.9 has anyone else been getting lots of intermittent big lag spikes ? I know for sure it is MP lag, because the guys I was flying with all got the lag at exactly the same time as me

yes indeed , been waiting on this for 921 days thus far since the question was asked if we wanted this feature hopefully soon ...........
