Question about Wake Turbulence on Open Beta Dedicated Server

[Weegie]

I sometimes run an Open Beta Dedicatid Server for myself and some friends whose hardware is a bit limited and stops them going into regular public servers

 

Unless I've got it wrong it seemed that wake turbulence wasn't available, it's not in the OB Dedicated Server as an option however my machine (essentially a client on my own server) had the option enabled but it didn't seem to manifest itself.

 

So I was wondering if it's just completley disabled in al of the Open Beta Servers or am I missing something?

I believe it’s a client-side setting only right now.

 

So if you want everyone to experience it, everyone has to enable it locally.

It can be forced on/off from the mission file. Whatever it gets set to for the server server settings itself doesn't seem to matter for wake turbulence. It does for other options though, so I'm not really sure which settings take precedence or not. Basically you need to change settings in the serverSettings.lua and options.lua.

Ahh that maybe it then I was running an older mission

 

Understand about lua files but that's about it. I'll need to search to find where the serverSettings and options luas reside

 

Thanks for the information

Saved Games\<DCS>\Config

 

It can be DCS.openbeta or really anything if you customized it. But it is the saved games location where all of your controls, missions, screenshots, etc get saved to.

Many Thanks

 

I'll check the server and mission files
