Mac D Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago So I'm playing around with the CallArtilleryScript from MBot, even got it working. I got the OH-58D and AH-64D setup as Foward Observer platforms. And this is were I'm getting frustrated. I want to use CurrentHill's M270 from his USA pack as MLRS fire unit for the FO to call in. Yet everytime you push a call for fire to the M270 is response is not available for CFF, out of ammo. And this at the start of a mission. I already looked (in Mission Editor) if there is a posiblility to change the ammo loadout on the CH M270 : nope. Tried putting a HEMTT M977 truck (again from CurrentHills USA asset pack) and a truck M939 heavy, it the hope it would reload : again nope. Then I started looking if it wasn't possible to make a trigger, run a script, SOMETHING, to get this M270 rearming or , hope pray, start fullyy loaded. If there is a way to do it by triggers or script : I can't find it (I never did anything with triggers or scripts in Mission Editor so currently this is a crash course in using this stuff) If anyone has ANY idea how I could get the CH M270, preferably starting fully loaded, or else start reloading/resuply, and explain it to my the dumbass way, I would really appreciate it. PS : Yes, there's a M270 asset in DCS itself, but the parameters for this MLRS are waayyy of... any target you give outside of 20km it will not fire on. And it's the same for the M109 (which in real live has a range between 18 and 40 km depending and the ammonition used)
razo+r Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago Ground units should always come with full ammo by default. And they should also automatically rearm when they are within the rearming circle (black circle around a logistic unit). Just be aware that it can take several minutes to reload a unit, depending on how much and what kind of ammo.

Thta's what I thought, yet the CH M270 was out of ammo at the start of my self made mission. That's one of the things I dn't understand, because the regular DCS assets were fully loaded. Same at the CH vessels, they were loaded as well.
