dggoofy Posted November 5, 2023 Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Hi, Playing the campaign (which remains great) and, unfortunately I have to let the 14th mission down. Doesn't work at all. After Sandy 62 get freelance order, she flies to WPT Carpet then just RTB to mother! In fact I do absolutely not understand what I am supposed to do. Where, how, speed, angel. No idea. I overfly the firt outpost, but did not get a F10 option immediatly. The option came later on. I overfly the second big before Carpet. No F10 menu either. Not clear. Sandy (which is far away) informs about the APC. OK I take it down. As she's away, I take the Trucks and the ZU-23 position too. After all of them are dead... nothing. Well surely a lot of triggers are broken. I skip it. More simple. Cheers. Dan DCS Stable 2.8.7.42718 Edited November 5, 2023 by dggoofy add infos
baltic_dragon Posted November 6, 2023 Posted November 6, 2023 OK thanks. This is a super complex mission and if one element stops working then other things may fall apart... I'll have it properly fixed as part of campaign overhaul. Still, I'd strongly recommend to switch to OB, because campaigns on stable versions are fixed every 6 months and no wonder they don't work as intended For more information, please visit my website.

baltic_dragon Posted December 8, 2023 Posted December 8, 2023 M14 should be fixed now. Will fly it once more, but it should be good to go for next OB patch! 1 For more information, please visit my website.

IceyJones Posted December 29, 2023 Posted December 29, 2023 im just at this mission. started it in the long version first. tanker just gives me a miniscule amount of fuel, then disconnects me and flies away. then i got shot down by the outpost, so i started the short version of the mission. was not able to call out the outpost, and the helicopters dont even start.

baltic_dragon Posted December 29, 2023 Posted December 29, 2023 Yes, short mission problem with the helos is most likely my oversight, apologies for that. Long version should be working fine though. Weird with the tanker, which is set to unlimited fuel and should have no trouble... For more information, please visit my website.

IceyJones Posted December 30, 2023 Posted December 30, 2023 okay then. short mission is broken then. just tried it a 2nd time and same issue. clementine is not starting up.....
IceyJones Posted December 30, 2023 Posted December 30, 2023 (edited) seriously.....i start to HATE this mission. now flying the long version again, conserving fuel like crazy by flying in max endurance ALL the time, and now olive thinks "nah.....im out....do it alone" hook down, bugging out...... seriously thinking about skipping this mission at this point now. flying it for the 8th time in a row, doing mostly nothing more than loiter around is not fun then.....

baltic_dragon Posted January 2, 2024 Posted January 2, 2024 (edited) Hm, are you sure you are on the Open Beta? I did fix this specific issue for the last patch. I had this problem and had to swap Olive to another flight to stop the AI doing this crazy thing. Just imagine how annoying it is for me when I fix a bug and it is re-introduced in the same patch that is supposed to have it repaired.. and then multiply it by several campaigns Edited January 2, 2024 by baltic_dragon For more information, please visit my website.

jmarso Posted January 3 Posted January 3 (edited) It might well be a DCS issue, but I've noticed that since I've started to do AAR in missions, more often than not it just seems borked, especially in missions with more than one tanker. The tankers don't reply to comms (yes, I'm on the right freq with easy comms turned off), they refuse to extend a drogue as if they are hogging the last drop for themselves, and if a drogue does extend, I have to check six lest I be rammed by someone else moving in to plug when I thought I was supposed to be the one doing it. All in all it just doesn't seem to be working very well. M14 seems very, very ambitious from the design aspect, and M15 almost as much so. Hat's off to BD for trying to keep these things working through the regular game-breaking updates. That's one thing I've never understood about DCS- how updating one aspect of the game seems to break so much stuff that should be unrelated. Edited January 3 by jmarso
baltic_dragon Posted January 16 Posted January 16 This is very true. I spend more of my time fixing bugs and updating missions that I can dedicate to building new ones.. hope things will improve, but I've said that for the last 5 years, guess this is just part of the job...
