Wrecking Crew Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 v1.2.10 UH-1H -- Advanced Waypoint Actions, Perform Task, Embarking. What is this? Is it enabled (it doesn't look like it, and nothing in the manual)? WC Visit the Hollo Pointe DCS World server -- an open server with a variety of COOP & H2H missions including Combined Arms. All released missions are available for free download, modification and public hosting, from my Wrecking Crew Projects site.
sorcer3r Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 It allows you to pickup troops with your huey. But currently it is not working in MP afaik.... [sIGPIC]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b582/sorcerer17/sorcf16-b_zpsycmnwuay.gif[/sIGPIC]
TurboHog Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 It allows you to pickup troops with your huey. But currently it is not working in MP afaik.... It is, we use it in 132nd. It even correctly adds unit weight to client Hueys. 'Frett'
sorcer3r Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 It is, we use it in 132nd. It even correctly adds unit weight to client Hueys. good to hear. Could you PN me a miz file where I can see what I am doing wrong? It works only for me in SP. [sIGPIC]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b582/sorcerer17/sorcf16-b_zpsycmnwuay.gif[/sIGPIC]
showtime817th Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I wuuld like the miz too please. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sorcer3r Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I think I know why it does not always work in MP. If the empark trigger gets triggert on the server before a client joins then the client won't see the embark radio option. It works only if the client is already on the server before embark is triggered. Anyone can confirm? :) [sIGPIC]http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b582/sorcerer17/sorcf16-b_zpsycmnwuay.gif[/sIGPIC]

It works only if the client is already on the server before embark is triggered. Anyone can confirm? :) We just ran a small test and got the same results. Players need to be in the mission at mission start. Also did an emergency disembark from the mi8 only one guy gets out. HHC, 229th AHB, 1st Cav Div http://1stcavdiv.conceptbb.com/
TurboHog Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) In this example (track + mission): Troops run to WP 1; Troops run to WP 2 (embark waypoint); I pick them up; I transport them to their WP3 (disembark); They run from WP 3 to WP 4 after they got out. This is a simple mission I made as I can not share 132nd internal missions. You can make it as complex as you want (e.g. make them available for pick-up again after visiting multiple waypoints and engaging the enemy so you can simulate insertion - CAS support by A10 pilots - extraction for example) - Note weight changes (torque required for hover / forward flight) - Note use of radio menu and availability of the 'Descent' option (not available if troops haven't reached their designated pick-up point yet) I was bored at the end of the track. You will see :megalol:UH-1H pick-up.trkembarkation test.miz Edited November 8, 2014 by TurboHog 'Frett'
Flagrum Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 In 1.2.12 I can't use the embarking function, it seems. Whatever I do, the F10 Others menu does not show up. I used TurboHog's mission in the posting above as template - but no luck ...
sgtmike74 Posted December 18, 2014 Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) Same here, cannot get the "descent" option to load up troops. Hopefully there's a fix for it. I've included the mission I've been working on if anyone wants to take a look.RunwayAttack.miz Edited December 18, 2014 by sgtmike74
sgtmike74 Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Has the developers acknowledged this issue anywhere? I really hope we get to transport troops again.
