Hello, Almost 4 years ago I did a Discord bot to share to players what is the current mission on the server, mission time (to see if it's day or night), and even see who is flying on a server without need to start DCS. So I did something using Node.JS + Discord.IO. But it's not a very neat solution because it means each server owner needs to create and host his own Discord. The best solution would be ED to has his own Discord bot because all those data are already available: Then, only one bot would be existing, and server owners wouldn't need to host their own Discord bot to connect their server to their community Discord. Of course I opened to ED a ticket to see if there were interested (maybe 3 year ago?), at this moment we didn't give a next. I continued to develop my bot, I shared a bit more information, server's password, SRS version and parameters for example. But those data would not be accessible from a ED server (I guess, but I may be wrong): But one day, the Discord.io framework wasn't supported anymore, so I had a redo a part of the bot, but the bot was still working, even today is still working, so I postponed a lot before redoing the bot. In the same time, I saw other Discord bot for DCS, for examples https://github.com/DCS-gRPC/Custodian or https://github.com/Special-K-s-Flightsim-Bots/DCSServerBot , but it wasn't the same language (remember, I basically choose NodeJS) and it wasn't the functional possibilities I was looking for. I don't really want to manage my DCS server, I prefer to create more "social" interactions between the DCS server and the Discord server. The last months, I finally re-did the entire bot to migrate from Discord.io to Discord.js and I also redid the lua part. Now, the current bot is sharing more data, and I called it : DIGITAL BOT SIMULATOR The server automatically says when the DCS server is OFF: And I also create a channel to follow what's happening in the mission, as you can see, I can share lot of events : During a dogfight we can see: And sometimes an accident: For now, I share almost everything, but I'll make an easy true/false panel to let the admin chooses what he wants to share on the Discord. I'm also trying to find a solution to talk from the Discord channel to the in-game DCS chat. I already did something working with the old bot, still also working: But the technical solution wasn't very clean, so I prefer to investigate and see if I can do something better. If you want to see the bot running, you can have a look on my Discord server: https://discord.gg/ZUZdMzQ . For now I'm still working on it, but yes : I plan to make it available pushing it to Github with a guide for any admins to download it and use it on it's own server. I just don't know when. If you have any questions, please, do it in a public place (on this topic or in a public channel on a Discord, you can also find me on the official DCS Discord server or on the modding hub Discord server) ). I don't want to answer in private because your question(s) could interests other players. See you soon Asta☠

Greetings, The Virtual Airforce (VAF) is a virtual fighter squadron that operates in DCS. We are a milsim-lite group focused on multi-airframe operations and camaraderie. Our well-established European wing boasts an average member age of 30+, creating a mature environment. VAF currently has operational squadrons flying the F-15E, F-16C, F/A-18C, AV8B. We recently opened a dedicated F-4E Phantom II squadron as well. Twice weekly, these squadrons conduct a mix of formal training and operational deployments. We welcome new and experienced pilots to lead additional airframes. We also seek dedicated ATC controllers - ground, tower, approach, GCI, and JTAC - to establish a controller unit within VAF. This key role has proven difficult to fill. If our squadron appeals to you, please connect with me for introductions. We look forward to welcoming fellow aviators and controllers into our ranks! https://discord.gg/virtualairforce

Are you looking for an F-16 Mil-Sim Squadron without the insane time requirements? We may be the squadron for you! The 457th Virtual Fightin' Spads are recruiting. We offer our members a realistic squadron environment (Stan/Eval, Training, Scheduling, Tactics, etc). We have created training syllabi for multiple courses and more on the way (Pilot Initial Qualification, Pilot Mission Qualification, 2 Ship Flight Lead, 4 Ship Flight Lead, Instructor, Evaluator, etc). About Us: We are the 457th Virtual Fightin' Spads, a Mil-Sim Squadron flying the F-16C in DCS. We are committed to providing our members with a professional and fun environment to fly in. All new members must pass Pilot Initial Qualification and Mission Qualification before being Mission Ready Wingmen. While this does serve as a right of passage into our ranks, it also ensures that we are capable of flying missions in online servers. Once our pilots obtain Mission Ready status, there are several other training courses we offer to keep building skill and gaining responsibility. Our operations are based on real world USAF Squadron Operations with training, stan-eval, tactics, scheduling, and snack-o (still trying to figure out how to do this one ). We are based across the US, although we will accept EU members, we may just not be able to fly together as much. Unlike other Virtual Squadrons in DCS, we do not have a time requirement for members to stay active. Once you join you may fly as much or as little as you like. We are not affiliated with the real world 457th FS. Repaints: We currently link to Tehaviata's repaints on the ED website. We extend a huge thank you to Tehaviata for his work! Requirements: We ask that all members be: 1. Over 18 years old (exceptions may be made). 2. English speaking and own a mic. 3. Own a legal copy of DCS World and the Eagle Dynamics F-16C Module 3.a Recommendation: Own a copy of Persian Gulf and Syria. 4. Own a joystick or HOTAS system. Recommended: Own a VR or TrackIR type set up. 5. Respectful of other members and their time. Time Requirements: None! Fly as often as you want. Discord: https://discord.gg/fvs79ePb4K Thanks for taking the time to read this post, if you are wanting to join as a member, we look forward to seeing you. If you are a representative of another squadron interested in coordinating with us for events, please join our Discord and let us know, we have a channel dedicated to coordinated ops. - Mustang

Hello everyone ! I'm posting this to announce the creation of the DCS Tactical Recon Community discord. This discord aims to gather all virtual pilots interested in this special mission, to share dedicated scripts, multiplayer server to practice and discuss specific tactics as well as the real world of aerial reconnaissance by sharing documents, photos, stories, books, podcasts, websites, etc... All people interested in aerial reconnaissance and its aircraft are welcome. We are also looking for people who want to participate in the creation of content to improve and propose new dedicated scripts, as well as to create liveries and mods. Do not hesitate to contact us if you are interested! Here is the link to the discord: https://discord.gg/5tM9Djdw9C See you soon in flight!

Hi everyone! Hope you’re all doing well. I wanted to post about a community day our DCS group is having Sunday, April 2nd. We are a new and relatively small group looking for some members; and I think this would be a great way to meet some new people! We will be hosting a Breakout Tournament as well as a Capture the Flag server after! Breakout is a 2v2 arena style game mode, where carrier based F18s take off and engage in a close quarters ACM/BFM dogfight with Aim-9Ls and guns. This game mode is in beta but should still be a lot of fun. As for the capture the flag, well it's capture the flag! Fight to secure the other team's flag while protecting your own. Most planes have a set of older Fox-2s with a full load of guns, flares, and unlimited fuel. This is probably the most fun you can have in DCS ;). Again, we’d love to see some new people pop into the group and come join us! Link to the discord is attached below. Once you join, go ahead and say hi. Then check out the events and RSVP as desired. https://discord.gg/reKUGzMG
