testudine2002 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 In Practice mission 1, I finally shot down my first opponent! Now they want me to fly back india and recycle. But when I fly back to india and hit the \ and then f10, there is no option for ready, so I can't start the second engagement: How do I start the second engagement? What is a mission success here? Shooting down all three practice f15's? Is there a way to get more bullets between opponents? Is there a way to adjust the difficulty? Sorry for all the questions. New to DCS and your product. So far so good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre-TLA Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Congrats on your first kill! You have to be get closer to the waypoint for the READY menu to appear. If you have to, cycle back to the waypoint number on the HUD so you can be sure you are at the correct waypoint. L-SHIFT-` [backtick]. Waypoint 1 for the practice missions and Waypoint 10 for the campaign missions. INDIA actually aligns to a small hill so if you can see it then you will have no problem finding it. You do need to kill all the targets to consider the mission successful but the campaign will progress even if you are not successful. You do have to be judicious with your shots (not just spray and pray). 3 second bursts when the pipper is on target is a good way to manage your shots. It doesn't take too many to kill a bandit if the bullets are on target. Unfortunately there is no way to change the AI difficulty but you are going against the EXCELLENT skill level so the best the current game engine can provide.

testudine2002 Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 I got my second kill, and was also able to recycle! I must have needed to get closer to the bullseye to get it to work. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The red BullsEye is at Rachel - Farms - definitely not at India. BE is also not used for anything in these missions.

Sabre-TLA Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) It's used to give you a reference in a call from AWACS or in this case GCI. See this post for the format details of the calls.\ You don't really need it as the contacts will show up on your radar pretty quickly but it does add to the immersion.

draconus Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 If the BE is not used for anything, why is it there? It has to somewhere as you can't delete it :) Close bandits AWACS calls are always BRAA, so not related too.
