DCS Editor random scramble mission

[Gregkar]

I would like to create a single mission in editor, in which sometime RANDOMLY and different each time, in let's say the first 15mins of mission start some enemy aircrafts will suddenly appear on the map supposedly trespassing my airspace, then i will get a message (like the ones i get on ED official training missions) to scramble and intercept them. If possible i want to make the enemy aircrafts spawn in different random places on the map each time

 

Can i do it via DCS mission editor? i tried some third party software but they are way too advanced for me. i don't understand ANYTHING.

I suppose it requires script but i honestly know 0 about it.

 

Also if it's easy and simple for someone to build it for me i would be much obliged.

From what you wrote you should not need to use script you can do in mission editor. You will need to do some reading through this area to get better handle on things. I put a simple random spawn in test mission that spawns 1 of 3 aircraft. There are others ways to achieve variations on this (i.e. random % applying to spawn, at different timings etc. But it gives you idea and a starting point. There are a couple of videos around as well.

Yes what you do is build all the groups in a mission then use the random condition set to 50% to determine if each unit will spawn or not do a search on YouTube or look at the first mission of the a-10 campaign in Caucasus

 

Look under the mission editor tutorial forum at the top of this forum list I think dcs junkie or some junkie did the tutorial.
