DArt Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 Universal Radio is a first step to integrate Radio inside LotAtc. Moreover it is a project by a member of my squad, that is why I implemented it first. The LotAtc radio mechanism can managed severals kind of radio, so no problem for me to add another (if it is possible by the radio of course). I have already planned to see with Aries guys how we could connect their radio and LotAtc. [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
Skitter Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Hi DArt, I really appreciate the drawing feature and have two positions on the wishlist if possible: - Scaling of the text. We use the text to describe areas, flight level limitations over areas, training ranges, CRP points, etc... when you zoom out , all of the text get's cluttered. Would it be possible to scale the text together with zooming, or make it appear only after a certain zoom in ? - I have several drawings sets saved in .json files. As far as I know if you load a new drawing the old one vanishes. Would it be possible to have an option to just keep adding new drawings to the existing ones ? It would be even better if you could load multiple drawings from a file and then turn them on/off from a check list, just like you can do with range circles. That would be just fantastic. This is just wishful thinking on my side, thanks for your work.

Affirmative, I will add it on todo list too. Drawing is part is a young part in LotAtc, so any idea on how to use it is welcome! Thanks for your feedback. [ https://www.lotatc.com ]

We just started "playing" around with LotAtc in the 476th and even with some of the current bugs enjoying it. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website
Skitter Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Thanks DArt for considering this. Can I be a pain and ask if handling dynamic weather - like receiving weather for a particular station/airfield can be done ? Or maybe it is beyond the limits of the DCS World API ? Cheers

Cheers I would so be able to have this information, but you are right, from now, I cannot get dynamic weather from DCS... I hope that it could be possible in the future! :music_whistling: [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
Skitter Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 That's a pity. I think we will be lunching metheorological a-10C to measure the wind for us ;-) Thanks for the info.
Dojo Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Hey DArt, we noticed that after our server was running for a few days, LotATC seemed to stop working. We can still connect, but we're not getting all of the data. Is this a known issue? Our server tends to run for a few weeks at a time with a single miz. Thanks! Btw, if it helps, so that you can see what we are experiencing, I can ask our command members for permission to let you connect to our LotATC instance so you can observe what we're seeing. If we restart the mission, it is fine. But after a few days, we pretty much only get airport data. Edited February 20, 2015 by Dojo [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Yes it is the last big bug of this version, I am working hard to fix it :) I hope to fix it with beta9, but I have always one case that it is always present... Well, I spend time to find and fix it for final version... :( [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
Dojo Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Thanks DArt for the extremely quick reply. My apologies if it's a known bug... a few of us were talking on our TS about it, and I admittedly did not read your full thread before posting. We're standing by! Thanks again!

DArt Posted February 21, 2015 Author Posted February 21, 2015 No problem, this thread begin To be very long ;) This very annoying bug will be fixed, I am confident, but it is very hard to understand what happens... [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
Stuka Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Is it possible to change the way how MGRS coordinates are displayed?

Pikey Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Sorry to bear the bad news, our production server crashed in the same manner as since b7 within 5 minutes on beta 9. I didn't get this on my own server, we couldn't get logs as it was an official event and had to get it restarted quickly. There's definitely a difference between server use as if you test without connected players you don;t seem to have the issue. Will try to get logs, but it means we have to put up one of the largest EU servers knowing it's going to crash and annoy people. :( ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *

Without players, I have some 5h of intensive run without problems... Certainly due to player, I am agree with you. I return to my code...:book: [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
Pikey Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Managed to reproduce in proper testing with just one player, the DCS log gives the same error message, it broke within 5 minutes, working with the server Admin to wrap up the logs to email to you. ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *

Very nice, if you have something reproductible! The best would be to send me the *.miz file with your workflow (when you connect with LotAtc, which coalition...). If I can get this crash I could fix it :) Edited February 24, 2015 by DArt [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
DArt Posted February 24, 2015 Author Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the logs. EDIT : Sorry, I have badly reading logs, the port is not the problem.... :doh: Edited February 24, 2015 by DArt [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
Looney Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Pikey, can you tell me what you did to crash the server? We have missions coming up and may wish to revert or see a way around the issue.

Pikey Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Absolutely nothing except playing. It just does after some time. There's some question on what the difference is between ones that don't crash and ours, TAW dedicated server has been up and running for a few months now and we don't think there's anything different going on with ours than anyone elses. Just take all the information you can and share please :) ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *
DArt Posted February 25, 2015 Author Posted February 25, 2015 From now, It is a bug that happens on several configuration, I have difficulties to reproduce it. But, I always working on that. It will be fixed for sure, just take me some time, how many? do not know yet :) Once fixed, the road will be cleared for a final release. Again, thanks all for the logs/reports, it helps me. :) [ https://www.lotatc.com ]
Pikey Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 I'm sure you will. :) If there is something we can do specifically please ask.It can sometimes take some time, but if it helps, you never know. ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *
Looney Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 We're talking about the freezing of LotATC bug right? We have a training session tonight so I'll go and ask if logging is enabled for LOTATC so we can forward files in case of freeze.
