Hello,

 

I have a question related to the map view in DCS (F10).

I notice that the simulation experience is largely degraded if this function is turned on. I know that on the client (so on your PC), you can turn this map view feature off with an option in the options menu...

However, when playing in multi player mode, i really wonder if people are not using this map mode all the time to find airplanes or objects they need to fly to. In that sense, a lot of the gaming experience is degraded.

So i have 2 questions actually:

1. In multi player mode, is it possible to turn the map view off for all players? f.e. if i fly an KA-50, i want to use the terrain etc to keep myself undetected...

2. Are other players using the map view on a regular basis to find new targets?

 

If the answer to question 2 is a yes, then i really think that this is against all rules in a simulation game...

 

pls forgive me if i am wrong asking this question, but i was curious how this is working with other players in a multi player game ...

 

kind regards,

Sven

it is in the hand of the mission builder:

 

DCS User manual on page 65 (E:\..\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Doc

 

Along the left side of the window are the ENFORCE buttons. Checking an ENFORCE button will force the settings of this option on the player of the mission.

Along the right side of the window are the VALUE buttons. VALUE buttons operate as on/off variables. When checked, the options will be forced ON. When unchecked, the option will be forced OFF.

The problem is, I think it's impossible to differentiate between different users. What I mean is, in a multiplayer scenario it should be possible to set the option to map only for all users except the ground commander for example.

Currently it is impossible for only the ground commander to have "fog of war" and the rest map only. If that is possible and I just don't see the proper option please correct me as I'd love to be able to do that :)
