Bearfoot Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Is there a way to re-arm/re-fuel an aircraft by script? I'm thinking of, e.g. when a helicopter touches down on general "ground" (i.e., not a FARP or airfield), within a special trigger zone, maybe a radio item can be added (refuel/rearm) which when selected leads to refueling/rearming?
71st_AH Rob Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Do you mean for an AI aircraft? For client a/c why not just use the rearm & refuel menu?

shagrat Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 On the wishlist since forever! A simple ZONE with FARP capabilities... My personal hope is on the new "Grass Airfield" object, as it already has a supplies menu like any airfield, just you can't load any ammo or refuel (yet?)

Spades_Neil Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 Wait so what is even the point of grass airfields, then? :( Maybe it just needs a supplier from a friendly air field?
Bearfoot Posted January 26, 2017 Author Posted January 26, 2017 That looks FANTASTIC! Will give it a try ... once/if I figure out where to get it? Any hints?

Pikey Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 Yes, this is why it's not a complete solution and not that attractive to people wishing to use helicopters in the same mission. It's also needing a texture dropped inside one of the core ed terrain files, which is not automated by JSGME and thus also not appealing as it will uninstall every update. And finally, due to...well DCS... if the ground isn't flat it will float in the air. However, when you realise that you can use it with Helicopters as they can happily take off from anywhere nowadays, and use it with an additional mod to have aircraft take off from anywhere, much of the argument falls away to a determined person. I'll PM you it. I didn't want to upload it as generally speaking it's quite hacky.
