reported Germany ARMY livery dynamic bort number three instead of two digits (interferes with Hoheitszeichen)

[gulredrel]

Hello,

the dynamic bort numbers on the "Germany ARMY" livery show three digit number. This should be only two digits. The leading number interferes with the Hoheitszeichen of the German armed forces.

The description.lua has the following setting for "...NUMBER_100" which should refer to the leading number, I guess. But this is not working.

Does anyone know how to change the setting, so I could change it for myself until a fix can be made.

{"mi_8_BALKA_1_1_NUMBER_100", DECAL ,"empty",true};
...
{"mi_8_BALKA_1_2_NUMBER_100", DECAL ,"empty",true};

Whole relevant part:

Hello,

I had a similar problem. The solution was this entry structure:

    {"mi_8_BALKA_2_1_NUMBER_001", 0 ,"mi_8_tex_2",false};
    {"mi_8_BALKA_2_1_NUMBER_001", 2 ,"mi_8_tex_2_spec",true};
    {"mi_8_BALKA_2_1_NUMBER_001", DECAL ,"empty",true};

I used this for each part related to the number on the tail boom.

Thanks, yeah, this works to get rid of the whole three digits when set like this:

...010", DECAL ,"empty",true
[...]
...010", DECAL ,"empty",true
[...]
...001", DECAL ,"empty",true

But it isn't working when just using it in the 001-part of the three digit block. That's what confuses me.

I changed a number of old custom liveries to get the correct tail boom numbers like in the civilian official liveries and that worked ok.

Maybe there is a custom argument to achieve two digit numbers?! I read something like this for the F-16 liveries.

Oh, that's the point. I don't know how to change it here. RavenJJ and Vonrd converted the two-digit numbers to three-digits in the Mi-24. Maybe they can help.
