Removing AI from carrier take off - how did I do this?

[dburne]

Ok so my memory ain't what it used to be I admit, but this one has me pulling my hair out.

 

Yesterday I modified the F/A 18-C Carrier Takeoff instant action mission a bit.

I opened it in the editor, changed the start time and removed the three AI planes that are tasked with taking off as well to where I was the only plane working off the Stennis. Yes first I saved it into my missions folder with a unique name.

 

Now for the life of me I can't seem to remember how I did this? Working with the editor this morning every time I try to do it again it removes the whole dang flight group of 4, myself (player) included.

 

Help, I have gone stupid LOL.

 

Only reason I am trying to do it again is so I can remember it. I checked the manual and watched a youtube tutorial but can't see to find info on removing part of my flight group.

 

Thanks for any help.

Reduce the number in the second box:

 

Unit [1] of [4]

Where it says Unit: 1 of 4. Click the right box until it says 1 of 1

I was in your shoes before.

 

But I found spending more time in ME is more rewarding for creating complex unpredictable scenarios that are more enjoyable than simple missions.

 

I started with very basic things. Then advance waypoints actions, then triggers and finally LUA scripting. Learn them one by one. It takes time but it is very rewarding.

 

I found my self spending 80% of my time creating a mission and 20% flying.

 

Try to follow MagzTV on YouTube. That guy create and fly his own missions.

 

You can also download his missions from User downloads on DCS website.
