RagnarDa Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Is there really no resource on the scripting functionality in DCS? I have searched but havent found anything. What I am specifically looking for is if there is some way to move a unit or group from one place to another, like object.move(destination) or something.

Speed Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) Is there really no resource on the scripting functionality in DCS? Weird. I could have sworn I already replied to this. To answer your question, yes, there is really no resource on the mission scripting functionality in DCS, because it is not a supported feature.

RagnarDa Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) Weird. I could have sworn I already replied to this. I got a e-mail notification for the first post you wrote. Strange. What I want to do is to have a single group of units appear at a random location. I guess I could just have X number of deactivated groups and just activate a random one, but since i need to attach Y number of triggers and stuff to the active unit the amount of triggers need to be huge compared to just having one group of units and one set of triggers. Any help? Additionally, is it only possible to set up FAC missions for A-10C and not the Black Shark? And only US-units have this capability, correct?

Any help? That's the standard way of doing it, and yes it's a pain. The addition of "OR" clauses in trigger conditions at least reduces the volume of triggers you need. Additionally, is it only possible to set up FAC missions for A-10C and not the Black Shark? And only US-units have this capability, correct? Yes. The given reason IIRC is that Russian guided CAS procedures (FAC/JTAC type) is quite different to how the US does it.
