Schismatrix Posted January 16, 2022 Posted January 16, 2022 Hi all Here is a simple dismount script for ground units in DCS. I really like the potential of Combined Arms and wanted to make APC's more useful and similar to how they work in the Wargame series by Eugen. I was 50% successful.. With this, Transports can be preloaded with infantry compositions in the mission editor and dismount their troops at any time during the battle via the f10 menu. Some use cases could be transporting infantry groups to clear out towns or forests, establish a defensive line, transport MANPADS to strategic locations and so on. It would even be possible to use it for transporting armor and logistics via aircraft. Setup consists of loading MIST and the script at mission start, and making a radio (f10) item calling the dismount function with a transport group name. Detailed explanation how to set up is given in the script, and there is also a demo mission for examples of use. It requires the Mission Scripting Tools (MIST), so you need to read up on how to load that in your mission. I would have liked to make infantry loading during mission possible as well, but that is a bit beyond my LUA skills unfortunately.. dismountScript01.lua zz_scriptTemplate_dismount.miz 1
