Complete Transport and Logistics Deployment - CTLD

Also, it should be a fairly easy change in the code, to make the spawned SAM sites start up in RED state.

Would you please create an issue in the GitHub repository, so we don't forget ?

You bet, thanks. 

 

 

Edit:  Issue posted.

 

Also, I wanted to ask: is anyone else experiencing this issue as well?  I've used the CTLD script plenty in the past without issue, so I'm curious if it's happening to others or not.  If not, it's probably just something on my end.

We also have IADS running, it's hiding this because it manages the radars

Hello, I'd like to report the same HAWK site bug a second time. It appears that HAWK sites are still being spawned in the Auto configuration instead of Red configuration, and thus never engage air targets after being spawned. They must be forcefully put into the Red state by someone with CA privileges to engage targets. I tested this with the single player test mission on the Github and CTLD version 20210827.01. Please have a look at it again, thank you. 

 

I've already posted a ticket for this issue, it can be found here.

[CYPHER11]

Hey guys, I guess this question was already discussed but I could not find it. Is there any possibility to built an FOB with an invisible farp next to it to be able to rearm and refuel at any required point? If not, is there a walkaround with a script or anything? 
 

would be a massive game changer  

 

thanks in advance for the answer

Hey guys,how to enable Internal Load and Sling Load at the same time correctly?I have modified this jugde lines and only enable sling load,it seems working.It will spwan a sling load cargo,and a LoadNearby command show up in F10.I can load one internal and sling load one.So every time I can load two cargo.

Origin:

if ctld.hoverPickup == false then
if ctld.slingLoad == false then
missionCommands.addCommandForGroup(_groupId, "Load Nearby Crate", _crateCommands, ctld.loadNearbyCrate,  _unitName )
end
end

Modified:

if ctld.hoverPickup == false then
missionCommands.addCommandForGroup(_groupId, "Load Nearby Crate", _crateCommands, ctld.loadNearbyCrate,  _unitName )
end

There seems to be an extra END statement in your LUA since you took out an IF. Just an FYI in case your script is acting funny on you.

In fact ,there is only one End in my own script.The script I posted in this article just copied from github and forgot deleted the second End.

AutoLase is only updating about every 15 seconds. Target is a column of tanks moving over open ground. The autolasing unit is not targeting the first element in the columns -- which is coincidentally the closest -- and once lasing starts, it points to the ground where the target was, but only updates again after 15 seconds. CTLD never stuck to the moving target vehicle like native JTAC does, but now with moving targets are just driving away while the JTACing unit just lases the open ground for 15 seconds.

If you want you can edit CTLD.lua (with notepad++):

1) to update laser every second : at line 5328 replace timer.getTime() + 15) by timer.getTime() + 1)

2) to turn lasing point from target position to a dynamically leading point from target position : replace lines 5460-5461 by what I wrote on this post :

[Captain Orso]

Yes, thank you Toutenglisse. This works!

What this isn't the default...

[Captain Orso]

Well, I spoke too soon. I did some more testing. Although the change does have the updates occuring much quicker, and the lasing trying to lead the target, if the target is faster than about 10 mph, even the 1 second delay is enough for the laser to be off target nearly all of the time and very often for the bomb/maverick to miss the target, at time, substantially.

I also got the same results when I was playing around with it. Glad you mentioned it.

Does the internal JTAC also have this problem? I don't ever remember it being used on moving targets.

[Captain Orso]

No, the FAC JTAC follows targets smoothly. There is however no documentation on how to use it properly, and it is not so straight forward.

I was playing around with it, having it lase a group of targets. I had just killed the first, when on the radio I immediately hear "switch" -- within a fraction of a second of the first target being hit (very easy to overhear) -- , and in the TGP I see that a new target is being lased (I'm in Hornet and LSTing so the TGP is following where it sees the laser). Then I fired a second laser Maverick at the new target and suddenly I hear on the radio "abort abort abort". and I have no idea why.

Then you have to go through the handing of the run-in again "I'm running in", "laser on" etc. It works, but it's more work to get it to work, and after a dozen years, you'd think it ought to work perfectly by now and be documented into the last detail, but.....

[Lowlyslows]

Hey All,

I am building a mission and have ran into this issue twice.

C130 will deploy troops when it goes through a dropzone. At some point, the "logic" doesn't load troops into the C130 anymore. I literally delete everything from the mission, place a C130, load MIST and CTLD, put the DO SCRIPT 1: ctld.preLoadTransport("transport20", 5,true)    DO SCRIPT 2: ctld.preLoadTransport("transport20", 5,false)  and it doesn't work

However, if I do everything exactly the same as above on a new mission, it works.

 

Any ideas?

Any documentation that you have and could share on how to make it work?

 

Also, I can not get the JTAC or the CSAR script portions to work at all right now and I don't know why. Sorry, but I'm just learning and finding the problem and fixing it I'm struggling with...

[King39]

It does work. Try this:

In CTLD at line 5328 replace: 
    timer.getTime() + 15) 
    by 
    timer.getTime() + 1)

then - 

In the function ctld.laseUnit replace this :

    local _enemyVector = _enemyUnit:getPoint()
    local _enemyVectorUpdated = { x = _enemyVector.x, y = _enemyVector.y + 2.0, z = _enemyVector.z }

by :

    local _enemyVector = _enemyUnit:getPoint()
        local speed1 = _enemyUnit:getVelocity()
         local speed2 = math.sqrt(speed1.x^2 + speed1.y^2 + speed1.z^2) + 0.1
        local dir1 = mist.getHeading(_enemyUnit)
        local dir2 = mist.utils.round(dir1, 1)
        repeat
        LeadPoint = mist.getRandPointInCircle(_enemyVector, 1.4*speed2)
         LeadPointV3 = mist.utils.makeVec3GL(LeadPoint)
           ref = _enemyVector
        vec = {x = LeadPointV3.x - ref.x, y = LeadPointV3.y - ref.y, z = LeadPointV3.z - ref.z}
        dir3 = mist.utils.getDir(vec, ref)
        dir4 = mist.utils.round(dir3, 1)
        until dir4 == dir2
    local _enemyVectorUpdated = { x = LeadPointV3.x, y = LeadPointV3.y + 2.0, z = LeadPointV3.z }

then:

Then Load File: MIST and then:
    Time More 10 secs

Then Load File: CTLD and then:
    Time More 10 secs.

Then load: ctld.JTACAutoLase( 'JTAC1', 1688, true, "vehicle", 2) or whatever values you want.

    And watch the spaces. They matter.

Ok... So I may have had an issue with the logfile updating. I deleted it, closed DCS and ran it again in a new mission set up just with a farp, jtac and a enemy vehicle. CTLD isn't creating a radio menu at all for some reason. The trigger fires, and no traceback in a search of the log file.

Hi there

I am having trouble changing the maxExtractDistance. I have a BMP and a squad set up and it works fine, but I want to change the default distance of 125m to something much closer. Is it possible?

Great script by the way!

DUde, I don't know Lua but my best guess it that you've got too many scripts running at the same time and are bumping into each other.

Try running each script one at a time. If they work than try two at the same time, etc, etc. 

Basic troubleshooting 101...

Hello, how to enable Sling only on CTLD? Thank you!

[CYPHER11]

Hello guys,

is there a chance to be able to set up which aircraft can carry a specific amount of crates? 
 

for example, I want the Huey to be able to transport one crate, Mi-8 should be able to carry two crates and the c130 should be able to carry 8 crates.

 

any idea how I can get this working?

 

thanks in advance 

[Captain Orso]

I don't think it works like that. Crates have actual weight. Search for "SPAWNABLE CRATES"--without quotes--in the script to see what is defined.

As far as I recall, helicopters can carry one crate each, plus one infantry unit, depending on environmental conditions and the combined weight of crate and troops.

I really can't say anything about the C-130 or the Hercules (flyable mod).

Hey thank you for the answer. Well, i got it work with the MOOSE CTLD now - there you can script which aircraft can carry which amount of crates, troops and total Load. The Problem with the Moose CTLD is now, for example, if i click on "Spawn FOB Crate" and 4 Crates are required - that all for crates are spawned. Normally, no Problem. But on Multiplayer server, no one checks if there is already a crate that is needed for him is spawned. So i am a little bit scared of a Over Crate situation. 

Well, think i have to live with that  

But thanks for the Answer.

________________________________

Another Question here. Is there anywhere out there a good Video or documentation how to built a custom FARP for the FOB Crates? i know that it is possible in any way, saw that now on a lot of Servers - but i have no idea and google doesn´t help me how to built my own spawnable Farp with Farp Pad, Logistics and so on. 


Any advise here?


Thanks in advance
