I agree. There should be some kind of template available that makes an 800 meter stretch of road 17 meters wide and also adds parking areas for rearming so make it as close to reality as possible.

The roads in DCS are way too narrow to be used as road bases.

I came here looking for a thread just like this. Someone needs to nudge ED into making FARPs work as areas, rather than objects that aircraft need to be touching. HB seems like the best advocate for this since it's so central to the Viggen.

ED allowed all aircraft to rearm from FARP objects in the update this week. So how about doing the following for the Viggen (see quote below)? Haven't tried it, but wouldn't that be a viable solution for a road base now?

 

The AM2 Mat FARP has a good service radius so you can put it off to the side of a road and it will still service an aircraft that is on the road beside it.

 

PS. My example shows a Ka-50 because you still can't start fixed wing aircraft on ground. I thought that would go hand in hand with enabling all aircraft to rearm at FARPs.

I'm hoping that will follow shortly? ED? Please enable fixed wing to start from ground so we can put them on roads.

 

You can also make it invisible if you want and just mark the spot where it is with static objects or vehicles or whatever. Very good for making a realistic roadside FARP.

pretty sure i rearmed at a roadbase with viggen without touching any object many months ago.

its mission five in the big campaign iirc

 

 

edit:

not even remotely touching anything, there is just some cars and infantry around me. watch me arrive at 24:50

What exactly is "it"? Did you use the Heatblur road base system or the ED FARP system?

As far I know I changed weapons and fuel with the kneeboard.

 

 

P.S: It is enabled when the Ck37 is ON.

All right, that's the Heatblur system then.

Yep. Try the Cleared Hot Server. The road base works fine.

PC also works on FARP things, and apparently it will work without touching things:

 

 

Knowing the HB system finally does work on a server however is great!
