AI FAC for the Mi-24?

[Stratos]

Is possible somehow to add a AI FAC that tell you where the enemy is and pop smoke to mark it? I want to use it in the Hind, so I don't care about the 9 lines, lol.

 

Thanks!

Nothing really built into the game. AI aircraft set to the FAC task will constantly attack targets with smoke, but there is not comms other than the built in bullseye calls when they run in on a target. You'd have to use scripts like CTLD that have auto smoke marking and messages.

Never used scripts before, are they hard to use?

There are some really good scripts around, and most of them are very easy to use (and self-contained). To use them, though, you must overcome your fear of using Mission Editor, and create a trigger. Once you have done that, you'll find that the possibilities of DCS have multiplied by an order of magnitude. It's highly addictive, so use with caution.

I know how to create triggers, but how can I create a FAC for the Hind using CTLD?
