rheesbirman Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 I've just started learning the mission editor and I can't for the life of me work out how to start the mission already airborne. I am using the F-86 Sabre. I tried looking inside one of the training missions and setting my plane up with the same settings, but I must have missed something. When I try to fly my mission, it just takes me to the map and my plane is nowhere to be found. Please help!
razo+r Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 Put the plane where you want it and put the skill to "player".
rheesbirman Posted October 4, 2019 Author Posted October 4, 2019 Put the plane where you want it and put the skill to "player". I have set it to player, but it still doesn't work. The plane only seems to spawn when it's initialised to be on the ground.
rheesbirman Posted October 4, 2019 Author Posted October 4, 2019 Here are the settings for the plane: And when I fly the mission, I'm simply presented with this...
rheesbirman Posted October 4, 2019 Author Posted October 4, 2019 Try to repair DCS I'm pretty sure it's just something I've missed in the editor. All the other missions are fine; it's just this one.

Upload the mission for people to take a look. Although from your screenshot the plane is supposed to start at 13:00 which is not the default DCS mission time. If the initial waypoint has a time later than the mission start time, the plane won't spawn until then. In your in mission screenshot the time is 8:00. Your plane won't spawn for 5 hours. You either need to change the waypoint time to 8:00 or change the mission time to 13:00.
