It would be nice if there were an option to start an MP server from the DCS client without the mission starting paused.

There is. You set it via the “resume manual”, “resume on load”, and “resume with clients” server options.

 

Alternatively, if you want a bit more control, SLmod offers a plethora of server-control functions from registered administrator clients that let you do that and also do things like load or restart missions, manage user access etc. Granted, it would be nice if all of that were included as core functionality in the game, seeing how ubiquitous SLmod is on just about all persistent servers, but the mod is there as an option in the meantime.

Not sure what this means, multiplayer can’t be paused. 

Yes it can.

Your ignorance of all things DCS is showing again. 😄

You can use this little script to make all your mp missions start immediately:

-- mpAutorun - removes pause at the beginning of MP game. 

mpAutorun = {}

function mpAutorun.onMissionLoadEnd()
	DCS.setPause(false) -- server only command
end

-- have me invoked by DCS Server
DCS.setUserCallbacks(mpAutorun)

 

Copy/paste into a text file (or use the one I provided), name it <whatever you like>.lua and drop it into your saved games/DCS/Scripts/Hooks/ folder

 

It will be run whenever you start an MP game on your machine. From now on, all your MP missions hit the ground running 🙂 

 

 

mpAutorun.lua

Wow, thanks for the script. I'm going to try with the in-game setting first. I think once set, the server parameters should stay the same, so anding the lua script would be redundant. But we'll see. I'll check it out.

 

Thanks again 👍

You are of course welcome - TBH, @Tippis's solution to change the server params is the better approach, as you can switch it on and off via GUI. That little script will blithely start the mission anyway and you need to removed it to prevent it form unpausing a new mission.
