Net Id

Hello

Is there a link or video that explains the full use of Net ID?

Thanks

As far as I'm aware not.

Anyway it's pretty simple. NetID in the TAD is used to identify SADL equipped planes in the area. In single player the aI sets them accordingly, only in multiplayer you need to set or at least check them manually.

 

Group ID - the Flight group or Task force you are in

Own ID - the ID of your own plane

 

In normal multiplayer you may find more than one plane has Group ID 1 and Own ID 1, so you should all choose a "free" Group ID e.g. 2 and check that each flight member has a unique own ID (1,2,3,4... etc.)

 

A-10C No.1 -Own ID 1-Group ID 2

A-10C No.2 -Own ID 2-Group ID 2

...

 

As aresult you should see blue circels for Group members, and green circles for other groups.

If you can't see any circles and there are other planes present that are part of the SADL Network, you most likely have an OwnId, GroupId combination already in use.

Now the thing is, it does not need to correspond with your flight number e.g. Flight is Hawg 1-1 but you are part of group 13 and your group ID is 13...:D
