Grimes Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 That was supposed to be fixed. But it would not surprise me if cargo objects are still having issues.

piXel496 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) True and cargo object health is not properly recognized anymore. :dunno: Edited March 18, 2015 by piXel496 dashed hopes.. old stuff I made
Belgeode Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 It was not recognizing the health of it before either. I was doing tests on it a few weeks ago and could not get it to trigger any of the messages and indicators that it recognized anything other than the initial "alive" state.

piXel496 Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 bump _cargoObject:destroy() Does not work. Cargo is a valuable asset for the DCS helicopter experience. It has been broken long enough. Please make it work again... :helpsmilie: old stuff I made

piXel496 Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) I recognize the demotivation in the word "unwilling". The frustration is caused by determination and thats a good thing. :) Demotivated I would say: The calls for this bug repair is silenced to death by now, come back in 2017. Nevertheless, I can understand the subordinate position of the script engine due to the development of DCS 2.0. But an answer to this question might fuel our motivation: Is there a rough estimate when the scripting engine gets some preferential attention? .

C6_Hellfrog Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) hi all, I'm not an expert in scripting with the editor, so sorry if stupid questions or misunderstanding some pieces of code... but I am not totally newbie at programming stuffs, and trying to understand how to adapt to DCS 1.5 or 2 Spinter's mission. therefore I finally searched the forum a lot and found some things. first, it seems that the static object destroy() function is no more working and buggy in the editor script, true ? consequence : Is there not any other option than destroying the statics objects ? And finally I stil have one first question, why is it absolutely necessary to destruct the objects in Spinter miz ? to avoid too many instances of hooked objects visible and duplicates ? (we can do with that if messaging system is working, waiting for better soluce)... I suppose it ain't only to check mission is complete (in that case, a simple new flag could do the job) neither to count loads remaining... I suppose there's something else I still didn't understood ? therefore I would be pleased to have it explained in that case... eg : I don't understand the need of destroy() in the first lines of creacargo function... EDIT : found the answer in FlightControl thread below : about bugs anyway in editor, have to recreate cargo every new cargo.... second : I found this other thread : http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=2690289#post2690289 in which they speak about using MIST.... Can't we create/use moving objects (like a jeep to transport, with no move on ground) from the static ones, and avoid use of static objects, only changing mass pos and so on as in local static{} table in creacargo to avoid the problem and proceed like explained in that thread ? third : reading and trying to understand how to use MIST, I have an idea I can't test because of my lack of mastering lua very efficiently and quickly to test it efficiently. But maybe someone can try or comment, that's why I am posting. Can't we try to proceed the whole table containing the static object we want to delete, having a deepcopy (MIST funciton) of it, then erasing or updating to nil the content we want to delete, then deepcopy again the edited table back in the static objects one ? (maybe sorting problems ?), or it may crash the game ? I have doubts because of commented lines in GoWriteDrop function... is it no way ? I'm only trying to understand and help finding a soluce, my objective remaining the use of sounds orders for hovering help from copilot or soldier on ground via radio trans in other missions I'd like to develop. finally found a lot of problems coming from buggy editor system not working as it should for cargos.... EDIT : that one too is interesting... http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2782350&postcount=7 Script is too buggy to have it working OK ? only one real cargo at a time ? that's the reason for the destroy ? But If you do a clean miz with nothing in it else than statics to sling, it is working as it should... (I 'm mainly on 2 alpha version). EDIT2 : well, MOOSE http://flightcontrol-master.github.io/MOOSE/ seems promising, check the moose/cargo.lua in moose install folder for a way to counteract lack of destroy() function... Edit 3 : the mission helicopter war (on DCS site/user file) seems to work good on 2 alpha with helo script and mist, with vocal announcements and cargo load unload.

FlightControl Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) In DCS 2.5, using StaticObject.destroy() will destroy a cargo object. I mean, it will EXPLODE!!! Is this normal. Anybody has experience with using destroy() on cargo objects? It generates an S_EVENT_DEAD when destroy is called. This is highly unusual. ...
