Senaki-Kolkhi's NDBs and ILS are not working.

At least for Huey. Which present a problem in multiplayer.

Hi. I'm able to to use both 335.0 (BI) and 688.0 (B) Senaki beacons in a Huey.

 

Hear the morse codes in my video: they both match (morse code reference here, with max zoom centered on Senaki airfield).

 

335.0

 

 

688.0

You are right. Apparently, if mission was created in one of previous versions of Open Beta, those NDB's does appear as not working. But if you create a mission in this version, it's ok.

Strange. Can you please attach the mission you're having the issue with?

I'll doublecheck with another one, because this one has community mods in it.

You sure this is not one of those where... oh wing is blowing from an angle which we don't like... let's stop all the beacons working.

Added. Mi-8 in this mission won't pickup those NDB's too. Be aware, there is two additional mods in it, MB-339 and A-4E-C.

I'm checking on this mission like third time. Also I had same issue on Cold War server mission in multiplayer (and it made me fly to Min-fooken-vody instead. :doh:

UPD. Oh, I finally see, what you mean. NDB's at Senaki has only one direction indeed, but you won't close military airbase (as it stated in NS430 f.e.) just because wind is not right.

Common sense might not say so, but DCS does not support that train of thought. I can't see a single reason, why you would shut off the only navigational beacons at an airfield, which only has them on one side, when wind is blowing from the other side, but here we are

3 m/s at 257 degrees at ground level.

 

Kobuleti NDB's does work btw. Kutaisi too.

I'm able to load your mission. I agree: Senaki's NDBs do not emit in your mission. I don't know why.

 

Then I've tried loading an old 2015 mission of mine. I had to edit the mission to move a Huey close to Senaki. Senaki's NDBs are working in my old mission.

 

I really don't know what happened with your mission. I'll try comparing both missions files.

 

 

EDIT: I don't see anything related to beacons in the missions files. I have no clue what happened to your mission.

Neither am I. Well, I'll just resave it under this build, hope it will work.
