Hi to all :)

 

seems not possible to control AI flights as client: you can add "possibile waypoints" (red dot+circle), but when you try to confirm them, nothing happen. Instead, if you're the host, it work as intended.

 

First: thanks for the continous effort.

Second: hope you can solve this causa I have a very large amount of improvement waiting for this to work :D

 

PS: I attach a mission, as I found simple to reproduce in any occasion, but if necessary I will provide further test or info.

TEST CA - client non controllable AI flights.miz

The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

This was working in v123, right? I played around with it a bit, and was able to assign targets to opposing a/c.

 

Now with the v124 release, I cannot control a/c. I have Uncontrolled ramp Start a/c in Red and Blue and like said above - try to set a path and nothing happens - the a/c just sit in their parking spot.

No it wasn't: it was possible only for host or single player.

Yikes - this really bums me up.

 

I just came from the DCS Combined Arms page and in several places there are references to controlling a/c. This is released, right?

 

http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/products/combined_arms/

 

"When in multiplayer, different players can take on different roles such as artillery commanders, tank commanders, pilots, "

 

"Both cooperative and head-to-head missions can be played with at least 32 players occupying various ground command and aircraft command roles."

 

:(

No the future is not here yet. ED have been working on a new version of the CA, CA 1.5 but there is no release date set.

 

It's working in 1.2.7 beta, but you ruin a/c rtb, if you make new path.

And A-10 only use Maverics and long bursts on cannon, and seem to ignore the cbu97 they carry.

F-16 SEAD will use Maveric too, not sure if the radars are active for agm-88, they usually get jettisoned, but they will hunt helicopters if you make them targets.

i5 4670 - Sabertooth Z87- GTX Titan - Dell U3011 30" - 2x8GB RAM 1800 - Samsung 840 EVO 512GB SSD - Warthog HOTAS - CH Pro pedals - TrackIR5 - Win7 64bit

EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE :thumbup:

I'll check this evening, AFAIK i wasn't possible to control flight as client since last update, only host was able. :).
