Same problem with me. Able to hook in the Caucusus training mission, but not able to in my own Mariana WWII map.

Use the Icon on the toolbar. Works.

Thanks @Mistermann it works. I too never realized the icon on the left. Odd that the drop down and icon bring up the same template list, but only one works

I am unable to place a SAM template down on any map. I'm using Edit->Add Template. It doesn't matter which country (USA/Russia), no templates get added when I left click the map. In fact, when I left click, the Add Template menu disappears. Tried multiple maps (including Caucusus) and still not working. I did a full (slow) DCS repair and still can't place a template on the map. Turned of historical unit icon, still nothing. Let DCS recreate the MissionEditor folder in Save Games, but to no avail. Has anyone encountered this? PS: All Mods disabled, and Static Templates work on Caucasus

Last newsletter said: "DCS version 2.9.15.9408 also includes new persistence support Scripting API functions which also work with the Mission Save feature with custom scripts." What is all this about? Any documentation on this? -Wraith

Turns out the radio selector on the Huey needs to be set to INT even with easy comms on. Not sure whne this changed, but working now. -Wraith

I tried from start of mission, rearm mostly Sent from my SM-G973W using Tapatalk

I'm trying to setup and invisible FARP at Pagan airstrip to rearm and refuel the Huey. When I make the request, I get no response from the ground crew. Easy comms is turned on. What am I missing? See attached. Thanks -Wraith Rearm-refuel-test.miz Edit: i do have a fuel and ammo depot, as well as a refuelling truck and a rearming truck.

This still appears to be an issue. Adding and removing bombs will modify the "Saved Games\DCS\MissionEditor\UnitPayloads\P-47D-40.lua file, but changing the nose or tail fuzing does not write the changes to the above mentioned LUA file. -Wraith

Ok. So I deleted the file from UnitPayloads folder. My P-47 is saved with an empty payload in ME. In mission. I choose my custom payload with 4s delay. I shows up with the default 0s fuze delay. BUT, If P-47 is saved with the 4s delay fuze in ME, in mission, It shows up as 4s delay. So in conclusion, in mission, with an empty payload, and choosing the custom payload with 4s delayed fuze, the fuzing shows up as 0s Hope this makes sense. Attached is the file again P-47D-40.lua

P-47D-40.lua Attached as requested

Hi Flappie, I've included screenshots to demonstrate. 'ME Custom Loadout.jpg' shows that my fuse is set and saved to 4s in ME. 'Mission Custom Loadout.jpg' shows when I select the same loadout, it defaults to the 0s fuse delay. Note that I marked my custom loadouts with an asterisk. Clearly it's not be saved to use in mission.

In mission editor, I created a custom cayload for the P-47D. I select 3x AN-M64 and I set the fuzing to the 4s fuze (can't remember the name). After saving this loadout, I go to the mission, select the newly created loadout, but when I check the fuzing, it goes back to the default 1s fuzing. Fuzing doesn't get saved with the payload. -Wraith

45 degree release angle. I wait 5 seconds after the cue stops flashing, pull my 4Gs and I hit my targets all the time. Thanks EDIT: Ok. After some testing at different altitudes, It seems that below 1000 feet, I'm successful with a 30 degree release angle. Above 1000 feet a 45 degree release angle works fine for me
