MOD: Cargo Name Fix

[Ciribob]

Simple fix for the cargo name for sling-loading

 

Cargo is now named correctly as it used to be in the Cargo Select Menu and is a combination of the cargo weight and cargo unit name.

 

I.e "1000 Kg - Box of Spare Parts"

 

To install copy the attached "RadioCommandDialogsPanel.lua" to "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Scripts\UI\" or use JSGME

 

Make sure you make a backup of your current RadioCommandDialogsPanel.lua file or you can always repair your DCS Install if you have problems.

 

Please let me know if it works for you or you have any issues :)

 

If you want to do the fix by hand search for pCargo:getCargoDisplayName() in the makeItemByCargo function and change it to:

local cargoName = pCargo:getCargoDisplayName().." - ".. pCargo:getName()

RadioCommandDialogsPanel.lua

Hi,

 

just tested and it works. Good work!

[Ciribob]

Awesome. Glad it worked!

WOW, great!

 

I named all my cargos for training "cat toys", "cat food", "cat litter" and so on because it is totally funnier to carry two tons of cat food to some other place. You feel useful all of a sudden. I was really disappointed that the cargo isn't called like in the editor once you are ingame.

 

That's really useful, thanks a lot! :)
