":" here is not the same as Self in functions?

Thank you, Finnaly I understand what Pilot Name is in ME

@Grimes I am trying to get a unit name from a 'banditGroup' could you explain this syntax pairs(Unit.getByName('myUnit'):getGroup():getUnits()) especially the use 1) ":" 2) and where to you call for particular group to dig in?

@toutenglisse Probably that is it. Now on the new quest to get unit name I guess something with Group.getUnits()? Also, what is the best way to debug DCS scrips? insert brakes, see vars,

Mist noob here Trying to make respawn that would change skill level of new aircraft - random ore predefined. But at this point can not even display the skill level of a new unit.. if not Group.getByName('BadGuy1') then mist.respawnGroup('BadGuy1', 5) end local msg = {} msg.text = mist.message.add(mist.getUnitSkill('BadGuy1')) msg.displayTime = 20 mist.message.add(msg)

So Hornet VFA-12 has the cool Flanker livery. Wish Flanker would have it as well in DCS...

Setting up a simple training mission - an AI plane respawns after being shot down. In mission editor: Repetitive action -> Trigger (Group Dead, Plane A) -> Action (Group Activate, Plane A). Not working May be because I can not trigger Group activation on its own death? Is there a walk around to auto respawn AI plane after shot down?

Is there a way to force runway lights before sunset in ME? I remember this was discussed before, but may be someone has found a solution

Any key you assign to "desktop warp"

DCS repair seems to have fixed it. But after repair VIACOM does not initiate commands in DCS. Changed some LUA files?

Simple refueling mission, Nevada, Nellie. Tanker (KC-130) appears when a player flies through trigger zone. All works fine in standalone. In multiplayer 1) Trigger zone does not triggers tanker 2) Ai Tanker is not responding to radio coms. Both simple and realistic radio (all correct frqs)

Is there a way to set AI to escort hostiles aircraft without attacking? Just like follow command for a friendly plane Thank you

Is there a way to initiate an action by a press of a keyboard button?

Is there a way to lock external view on a carrier like F5 on an another aircraft?

@Kenpilot Yes. You should select 3840 x1080, total resolution of your projectors. In fly Elise you select Desktop warp. It works correctly only in game, not in menus. Let me know if you got it working

HUD with viewport on external monitor, fonts unreadable Any suggestion where to look for solution?

Quite specific issue, but may be someone knows. I have 180 degree screen with 2 projectors that warped with Fly Elise software. Also have external screen to viewport MFCDs. The issue is that Fly Elise warps not only main screen but also extended, making it wrong on all screens. Might be an issue with the way I made .Lua Any advice greatly appreciated FlyElise 2 pojectors + ext disp.lua

Is it possible to set F2 external view on second monitor while flying with regular F1 view on main screen? without server on a second PC

Actually, the same question few years later: is it possible to port external F2 view into another monitor while F1 view on main screen, without a second PC?

And they are only in the Hornet, look weird on Alt + f1 Dear ED, how to get them off "HUD only view"?... meanwhile @Oilman100how did you get them to "dot" size?

Yes, I managed to turn HUD off in Alt-F1 view, but DDI's are still there... DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Cockpit\Scripts\Multipurpose_Display_Group\MDI_IP1556A\indicator\MDI_init.lua

I am trying to get a clear view with NO Cockpit, DDI's and Hud. Alt+F1 gives me this:

I like new format. Just reduce wasted screen space.

Yes, "ready" appears before F5, after that only "copy" is availble Track is attachted. Got a little bored by the end here circuling India :pilotfly:

I can not move past first training flight with F5. After it ends for whatever reason, there is a command "recycle India". I circle it forever but the next training flight, with F-16, does not start. Any advice? :noexpression:
