Stop Removing Unarmed Building-Units


Wrecking Crew

Recommended Posts

v1.2.1.6288

 

DCS Guys, it sure seemed to be all working at the start of 1.2.1 where you repaired the missing building units so prior missions can be run in all their glory.

 

But in the last few versions the Unarmed Building-Units have disappeared, again! These two units need to be brought back into the Fortifications valid value list -

Barracks (unarmed)

Watchtower (unarmed)

 

Maybe you plan to transfer them to the Unarmed list from Fortifications, but for Heaven's sake stop removing them from the Mission Builder. What? you trying to take us back to the Middle Ages or something??

 

:mad:

 

I really like the update feature you put in - most excellent.

I'll look into it.

 

While its not the solution you are asking for, both objects are available in an unarmed state as static objects. The only major downside is that the objects are not tied to a group, so you can't really make a template out of it. However you can still use triggers on static objects if required.

The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Thanks Grimes,

I had a 2 AM thought of the day last night and will try plopping down the Armed Watchtower and setting its ROE to Weapons Hold.

 

I'll post the outcome w/in a few days...

Sadly, it looks to me that most of the "improvements" and fixes they made in the 1.2.1 patch got rolled back. At least for the graphics and effects. Just my 2 cents however.

All the Unarmed unit problems are now corrected in my missions by replacing the unarmed units from v1.1.1.1 with similar armed units and setting ROE = Weapons Hold.

 

To help find the units to replace using v1.1.1.1, I opened each mission in v1.2.1 and then closed the sim and opend the me.log file and searched for the word 'big', as in BIG FAT ERROR.

 

It looks like all my missions are good-to-go now in v1.2.1.6288.

Grimes - I need these to be Group/Units - not Static objects - because I want them there to be able to use the F7 View with them.
