Thanks Muzzer for the reply. Need to look at it on my end then because it’s not working for me.

No problem at all. I just tested the South Atlantic no mods miz file that was shared earlier in the post.

This looks great. Going to have to try it out.

Absolutely still works great, and also with newest MOOSE version. 

 

dcs.log will always show you what's up.

@fargo007 Hi there, I want to use the script to only spawn one big group of enemy contacts.

Can I just delete all the groups and leave one group?  Will that then only spawn that one group?
If I make that group say 50 units, will it then spawn only those 50 enemies?

[fargo007]

Yes, that will work.  You need to have minimum 1 group each on the red side of HEAVY, LIGHT, and SUPPORT for it to work.  

There's no reason you can't make them be a single group of 50 in LIGHT/HEAVY and a single unit of the same thing in SUPPORT.

Hi just found this again, forgot it existed is it at all possible to remove the choice options and just have one in the menu and then spawn a random one instead of having the 3 options? Cheers

I would be very grateful if somebody could provide me with an actual pre-made mission for Syria and Caucus as I am unable to.

 

Does anybody have them lying around they could upload?

 

For some reason the Syria mission from the Github page doesn't show up in DCS as a mission within the library which is odd - the South atlantic one from page 9 on this thread does though. Strange!

Hello folks, just tried the script. It somewhat still works, but there are issues with the mission being over.
Basically, once the RED forces have been destroyed or have retreated, BLUFOR don't give an all clear call and are stuck on the map. The Clean Up command fixes that but it would be nice if the process was automatic since I am running it on a private MP server...
Latest Moose release doesn't seem to have any issue.

[fargo007]

I do have a newer version of this to publish that addresses that. 

The spawned units will all have an "expiration time."  After that time passes they'll self-delete.

There will be an update this year for sure.
