I guess it's a height problem that I also had with the UH-60L. I mean something with the unit_below_agl kind of condition. Ah! Tested with the Mi-8TV2 now. None of the rescue missions registrated my landings, so you're probably correct. Other missions, of those I tested, went well.

Having a go in the Kiowa with 10% fuel, I can barely takeoff when picking up the bomb squad for diffusing the bomb, (almost sliding takeoff). And that's only two guys. Picking up a single victim later with even less fuel was impossible. Joe was light enough though! Guess his wife has him on a diet. Will trey later with Gazelle, (and the Mi-8). this mission set screams for light helicopters. Might try the Chinook, while I believe it's gonna be tight. Joe weights 400 kg XD Some "victims" are 1000 and the max I saw in ME was 1400 kg internal cargo addition I think. Tested the limit for OH-6A. With 50 % fuel and 700 kg you can do hover and turn right and climb with speed. I'd say I change the weights to 600 kg max. You can than use that file for Kiowa I guess. Will take a day or two.

I'm not an ME connoisseur. So, what you're basically saying is that changing the weight, which is a little over the top, for the passengers to like 85 kg per person, could make the missions workable?

Okay, cool! 100 %, at least for the small ones. The big ones I need to check AGL conditions. 1
guitarxe Posted April 16 Posted April 16 I love these missions, I didn't even know that little tablet graphic was something that could be done in DCS. However, it is very small and is at the top right of the screen, meaning that it obscures the comm menu. If I want to change settings or get refueled, I can't because it covers up the comms menu text and I don't know what to press. Is there a way to move it? And also to make it larger to be more clear? 1
SparrowLT Posted April 22 Posted April 22 BTW i tried beating the mission recently and i ended at a point where i would not get new missions.. if i cancelled the mission i was "suposedly" in it would give me another ..then it began giving me missions i had allready done and then it stoped giving any new missions..it would remain stuc at "incoming call" . does that mean i beated all avalaible missions? 1
guitarxe Posted April 29 Posted April 29 I love this mission! It's awesome! There are some minor nitpicks I have - the little graphic of the tablet is quite small and hard to make out, and it's also in the top right corner of the screen. Which is where the comms menu shows. So I can't use the comms menu during the mission, because it covers it and I can't see anything. So although I can quickly change settings in the "F10 - Other" menu before the officer gets on board, after that I can no longer do it anymore. The other issue is not minor. There are two types of activities that seem to be bugged or not done correctly? After these, I can no longer continue any more. For example the powerlines one where you need to settle down next to the substation and fire the EMP. Immediately after this, the substation blows up and takes your helicopter with it. You need to be close enough to activate the EMP, but if you are then it blows you up. That doesn't really make much sense to me, unless you have prior knowledge to what's coming and immediately get the heck out of there the moment you fire the EMP... Also on the roof to rescue the bomb squad, this is probably more an ED thing than anything, but for whatever reason maybe 25% of the time you lose a skid or two just from landing there. Not touching the sides or anything, but just normally landing there there are some kind of clipping issues or something and your skid will randomly go flying off. Otherwise this is awesome! Would love to see more additions :)

Sometimes they blow up before I fire the EMP, so this mission is a little bugged I believe.

Yes, it's a bug that if the back of the skids touch something first or on the edge of something, they break. Try landing with the front of the skids.
