Hoggorm Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 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 :)
HC_Official Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 ALARM STATE = GREEN state No more pre-orders Click here for tutorials for using Virpil Hardware and Software Click here for Virpil Flight equipment dimensions and pictures. .
feefifofum Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 Ensure the options are set at WP0 (or SP for Eastern units) or they will not become active until the group passes that waypoint. THE GEORGIAN WAR - OFFICIAL F-15C DLC
Hoggorm Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 These SAMs are static and don't move so they do not have any waypoints...
Hardcard Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 When you say "SAM" what do you mean, exactly? Is it a single AA unit or a SAM group (radars + comms + launchers)? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Hoggorm Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 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
Hoggorm Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 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:
LCO489 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 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

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.
jmarso Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 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.
