Mist Script for group respawning back to departure base

[Hafody]

What is the best way to get a group which consists of one airframe to respawn back to original base it departed from after landing at a different base...???

Not an answer with mist, but with moose...

 

local PlaneSpawn = SPAWN:New("Planegroup")
PlaneSpawn:InitRepeatOnLanding()
PlaneSpawn:Spawn()

 

Once the plane group lands, it will be respawned at the original position defined in the mission editor.

It is mostly just down to determining when you want to respawn the group. So you can do a check like

 

if Unit.getByName('whatever') and Unit.getByName('whatever'):inAir() == false then

mist.resapwnGroup('whatever', true)

end

 

Depending on how often that was checked it may respawn the group the moment it lands. Alternatively you can add a delay to the check or whatever else.

Mine is slightly different:

  
if not Group.getByName('RUSCAP1') then
   local msg = {}
   msg.text = "Respawning RUSCAP1."
   msg.displayTime = 30
   msg.msgFor = {coa = {'all'}}
   mist.message.add(msg)
   mist.respawnGroup('RUSCAP1', true)
   local con = Group.getByName('RUSCAP1'):getController()
end

 

I can't remember where I got this from, but it works.

It also displays a message for 30 seconds.

This is setup to respawn a group called RUSCAP1.

This just respawns them wherever they originally started, so if they start on a ramp, they'll respawn on the ramp.

Be aware that parking spaces are not preserved, so they'll just pick the first open parking space.
