Rabies Posted August 16, 2024 Posted August 16, 2024 An interesting mission concept for the near future would be downed aircraft recovery. Say, dropping off a detachment of grunts for perimeter security and mechanics for the preparation of the downed aircraft for slinging. For simulation purposes, this could be a 15-minute wait or less. 4
Devil 505 Posted August 30, 2024 Posted August 30, 2024 I fully support this idea! The Cayuse mod already has a downed Cayuse you can pick up as Cargo. It would be nice to see crash site/aircraft wreckage we could pick up similar to the cargo or the Cayuse mod. When the boys and I were flying pretense server, there was a script where if you got shot down and ejected, it spawned a pilot on the ground where your pilot landed after you ejected. It then auto generated a CSAR mission to recover the pilot. I would love to see this officially implemented into DCS only take it a step further. Depending on the parameters, say keep it to helos, if you crash, not only does it spawn the pilot if he makes it, but also generates the static cargo wreckage of the aircraft. Then we can auto script a recovery mission with the Chinook. Crazy thing is you can already do this with the pilot in DCS currently. All we need is cargo wreckage models of helos. Maybe different variations of wreckage as well to carry. This would be a blast for those of us who fly coop with friends every week. 2
