RTS354 Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 I been having an issue where when I land at on the supercarrier, the tower stops communicating with me, and the only message that I get when contacting the tower is "Arrival Parking". I tried taxiing to a designated parking spot according to the supercarrier manual, but the tower will not talk to me. The reason this irks me is because I want to practice super carrier procedures and it's a pain in the ass to keep starting up a new aircraft to do this. Am I missing something?
Tholozor Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 In real world carrier recovery operations, arrested aircraft are directed by multiple aircraft handlers (yellow shirts) to their parking position. This is not simulated in DCS.

Adam Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 Don't think you're missing anything, but not sure why you need to start up a new aircraft either. Can't you switch your radio to "rearm and refuel" and then "request takeoff" to use the same again, or am I missing something?

This is precisely what I do if I want to take off from the carrier again. I would be nice to have the yellow shirts direct you to a parking spot but I can also understand why this is quite hard to implement. At any rate, I'd like them to prioritize the frame rate hit that the supercarrier has.
SharpeXB Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 I'd like them to prioritize the frame rate hit that the supercarrier has. What hit? It’s actually quite smooth considering how much is modeled there. It’s not any worse than the various airbases like NTTR etc. i9-14900KS | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | 64GB DDR5 5600MHz | iCUE H150i Liquid CPU Cooler | ASUS TUF GeForce RTX 4090 OC | Windows 11 Home | 2TB Samsung 980 PRO NVMe | Corsair RM1000x | LG 48GQ900-B 4K OLED Monitor | CH Fighterstick | Ch Pro Throttle | CH Pro Pedals | TrackIR 5

No more details how it will work. About carrier ops: "The younger pilots are still quite capable of holding their heads forward against the forces.

Raisuli Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 I just learned takeoff was under ground crew and not ATC a few days ago (because it never really mattered until then, I guess). Land, taxi to some free part of the flight deck, rearm/refuel. Radio menu->ground crew->request launch. Take off. Wash, rinse, repeat. The good news is you can do that all day without maintenance getting on you, and by the time they know what you did you've already closed the program.
Doum76 Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 I Presume the guys in the Tower, holding their coffees and looking at each others says to one another « For **** sake, he's alone on the entire freaking carrier, why does he bugs us for instructions, can'T we just enjoy our cofee and do his things by himself, he has the entire deck for himself! » :P

LTRMcrew Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Holy crap that's a busy deck! In reality, during ops there wouldn't be that much on the deck. And remember op had frame rate hit issues! Never mind this!
