Mission 10 - Several Issues

[Licketysplit]

Mission was enjoyable and successfully completed; however, there were several issues along the way.

• F10 did not show White and Blue Flights on the map
• F2 did not cycle through the individual aircraft in the 8 ship formation.
• Response was really sluggish at take off.  Also didn't get familiar radio calls from flight "Two rolling" , "Three rolling" etc.
• Although command was given and accepted by Transport Aircraft (Blue Flight) to engage ground targets, the flight did not attack anything.  The 4 ship came back with bombs still loaded.  White flight did follow commands and dropped bombs and did strafing runs.

I'm running latest stable release 2.7.16.28157

Not a mission setting, probably your own settings?

• F2 did not cycle through the individual aircraft in the 8 ship formation.

Ditto, nothing to do with the mission

• Response was really sluggish at take off. - what response? Control? Or tower? Either way, that doesn't have anything to do with the mission...

Also didn't get familiar radio calls from flight "Two rolling" , "Three rolling" etc. - because you were not on their frequency probably. (they're always on channel A, that's not changeable in DCS)

• Although command was given and accepted by Transport Aircraft (Blue Flight) to engage ground targets, the flight did not attack anything.  The 4 ship came back with bombs still loaded.  White flight did follow commands and dropped bombs and did strafing runs.

WW2 AI aircraft in DCS attack ground targets like they were modern jets. It's stupid but that's how it is hard coded. They fly away for very long then turn back in. I programmed other flights to automatically rejoin if they wander too far off. A workaround can be to issue the orders while still a little further away from the target.

Thanks for the feedback, see my answers above.

I have similar issues with this mission.

No units on F10 map at all.

F2 does not cycle between units - you can see only your plane in F2 and some baloons over the beaches, than it returns to your plane.

Those issues do not affect the progress of the mission. I was able to complete the mission (after several attempts ). 

edit: I am running latest open beta 2.8.3.38090, MT enabled.
