D4n Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Since currently many 3rd party modules (M2000) have radar warmup time, it would be really good if multiplayer server mission designers can enable such a setting, for example that in the HUD of MiG-29 and Su-27 the pilot would see the radar letter flashing for 3 minutes and only then activates.

razo+r Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 What's the point of that? You always warm up the radar before entering the AO (or that's what seems to be logic). Putting this feature in would just... not give us anything more nor will it give other planes an advantage/disadvantage.
D4n Posted April 28, 2018 Author Posted April 28, 2018 Multiplayer aspect: if hostile pilots are flying close to your team's airfield you can't spawn, take off and shoot radar guided missile within 1-2 minutes... you would need 1-2 extra minutes to warm up the radar while standing on parking position or in hangar. Which require friendly ground commanders to protect you (controlling SAMs and tanks) and would give enemy ground commander more opportunity to drive ground units onto the airfield to shoot at you in the hangar/on parking spot/preventing you from taxiing and taking off. (would encourage more teamwork between pilots and ground commanders) DCS Wishlist: 2K11 Krug SA-4 Ganef SAM, VR-TrackIR icons next to player names in score-chart PvP: 100+ manual player-kills with Stingers on a well known dynamic campaign server - 100+ VTOL FARP landings & 125+ hours AV-8B, F-14 crew, royal dutch airforce F-16C - PvP campaigns since 2013 DCS server-admins: please adhere to a common sense gaming industry policy as most server admins throughout the industry do.

razo+r Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 But this would only work if people actually would drive tanks. And by the way, just a thought. You can start the electrics and put the radar in warm up. While rearming and starting up might have passed 2 minutes. Together with taxiing it's close to 3 minutes and then you can more or less start shooting as soon as you are in the air. This way the warm up time either makes no sense or would have to be increased to reach the desired effect you are talking about.

Dagger71 Posted April 29, 2018 Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) If your base is being attacked by ground units, the Mirage should be the last vehicle you spawn. Secondly, do you use external power to warm up before engine starts?/? All modules DCS and FC3 have 0 fuel 0 weapons on DDS so every one of them has a delay. I'm not sure what the problem is?

Dagger71 Posted May 4, 2018 Posted May 4, 2018 takes about 4:30 seconds to go from cold start, with 0 fuel and 0 weapons to airborne with radar emitting. in fact if you do things right it will take under 40secs for the radar to be active after wheels up.

D4n Posted May 8, 2018 Author Posted May 8, 2018 This was actually based on me not able to auto-start M2000, believing server admins could disable "autostart" for specific modules on their server. I was mistaken, my DCS installation was corrupted by the M2000 NVG mod. cleaned up, repaired, now fine.
