Complete list of unit types?

Hey,

I know I've seen this somewhere, someone had listed all (or, at least a lot) of the unit type names in DCS World. Does anyone know where I can find it?

What I'm looking for are the type names used for the unit table used in group data when invoking coalition.addGroup

http://wiki.hoggit.us/view/DCS_func_addGroup

In the example they are using "LAV-25", I was hoping to find a list of all the unit type names possible

Does anyone know?

Ran grep "GT.Names = " in

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\Scripts\Database

Made a javascript to process the output, so now I've got the following unit type names:

Hoping that's all type names, at least it will do for me for now

Now put pictures with them ^^^:music_whistling:

Note too, the available units are dependent upon the Country.

Haha yeah, it's kinda hard to show th pictures in script but how about this?

You're right the vehicles should be categorized according to country. I probably will categorize them later but it won't be a priority.

If you spawn the units in your script the country doesn't seem to matter. I can spawn a Russian M-1 Abrams if I wanted.

Even though you have a list, I've compiled tables of assorted data available for each object. Its useful to look up stuff like attributes, weapon, and sensor information.

You will need to expand your javascript to also check objects in the coremods folder. At least as far as aircraft go new models and relevant DB info is done in coremods.

Yeah it doesn't matter to the scripting engine. I spawned an Italian Mig-29 armed with Aim-120s to test it out. You can also spawn tanks on water and they won't sink unless a player takes direct control.

Impressive! But I'm a little unsure how to use the scripts you linked? The reason I wanted a list of the available unit types was so I could map them to lua variables, so LDT (Lue Development Tools) would recognize the variable names for autocompletion in the editor. Like this example:

Maybe we could make a collaborate and make a separate repo for these unit type definitions? Make each unit definition into an object of some class holding all the information you have compiled?

Thanks, I'll look into this later today :)

EDIT: Also, MIST is really great! We're using it for our scripts, thank you so much for all the work you have put into it. We really appreciate it!

Impressive! But I'm a little unsure how to use the scripts you linked?

They are simply the result of using the functions getDesc(), getSensors(), and getAmmo() on every type of object. I guess it is mostly used for reference. If you are making a script that uses attributes or other data found in those tables to do anything, its just useful to be able to see whats in there without having to manually create your own script to do it. I made it mostly to check the data for air defenses.

I see, how did you obtain every type of object?

Placed every single object into a mission file and watched my ram disappear trying to load all of the textures. I then split them up into separate missions. Its pretty easy to keep track of when new objects get added to the game that I can add em to the mission. Within the mission is a simple script to access all of the objects using mist and then writes the files.

LOL -- That's ^^^ how I got images of every Static Object - but I did ... like ... 10 at a time. Scheesh. :)

Static Objects r-s 2.jpj --

This factory site was built with Witchcraft.

Nice effort! I'll put the unit type definitions here:

Github link appears to be dead. Would love to take a look at that script.
