Hi,

 

I'd like to have a SAM have its search radar on but to hold its fire so I've created the following rules for the unit:

 

1. ROE = WEAPON HOLD

2. ALARM STATE = RED state

 

Still the SAM fires when an enemy aircraft approaches.

 

What have I done wrong I ask :)

When you say "SAM" what do you mean, exactly??

 

I mean those units that can be controlled by a CA player like the SA-8 OSA, SA-13 Strela, SA-15 Tor etc

I was finally able to solve this issue. I was entering the rules in the Triggers section and not in the route section.

 

When the rules where correctly entered in the route section the radars are on but they do not fire.

 

Correct:

Wrong:

Setting SAM sites

 

Hi, i am having a related trouble with mission edition. I defined 2 enemy airfileds tried to place one SAM site on each (1 SA-2 radar and 2 launchers) plus a EWR on the nearby. but only one site and the EWR works. The other SAM site simply doesnt work. All the settings are the same for it. Can someone tell what am i missing? thanks

A common mistake when setting up a SAM site in DCS is not placing all the required units in the same group. It is not enough to just place units near each other, you need to have them all in the same vehicle group.

One of the things I really love about this mission editor is the "RETURN FIRE" ROE option. You can set things up with opposing sides, essentially creating a standoff, but nobody with that option will fire until fired upon.

 

Great for those 'hassling' situations like surface ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz under the stink eye of the Ayatollah.
