afac - why is everyone axeman?

[maxmax]

Ive set up a mission where multiple jtacs are available. I've given them different callsigns, but mostly the same frequencies.

 

For some reason they all show up as axeman when playing. Does anyone have an idea what im doing wrong? I can have up to three axemen in the list of jtacs.

Are you changing the name in advanced options for the unit you are editing?

[maxmax]

yes, as well as frequency.

 

*EDIT*

 

Oh, and I don't even have a jtac with callsign axeman.

[Cibit]

Can you post the mission please and I will try to help if I can:)

[maxmax]

mission posted

 

Yay, thanks a plenty :)

 

It's probably something simple, or not. If not then ive spent time on a bugged mission.

 

*EDIT*

 

This latest version has different frequencies for each jtac.

 

edit again

 

Also, JTAC only responds on freq 131 even though ive set him to other frequency.

I think i got it. It seems I had the advanced options in the wrong order. Apparently frequency first, then callsign, then fac. Not the reverse as I had done.

I've been having this same problem!

I usually set the callsign first as well, but sometimes I can play the exact same mission several times, and sometimes I'll have the "Axeman" issue, and sometimes I won't, so I'm not entirely convinced it's an issue of proper order of assignment.

I solved the problem by setting the order to

 

1.frequency

2.callsign

3.fac

[LostOblivion]

I usually do

 

1.callsign

2.freq

3.fac

 

works for me.
