FARP for 1.2.4.12913.167

[Stacker]

In light of today's update - does anyone have a definitive list of units/structures I need to get a FARP finally working for the UH-1H. I get a response back from the ground crew when I want to rearm/refuel but it simply says 'Cannot comply'. I'm doing this with engine off, doors open.

 

Cheers.

Found this post with the required units.

 

Just finished testing it - didn't see any ground crew.

Cheers. I got it working at last! On my missions I have slightly more structures around the FARP but as soon as I added a M818 the ground crew started rearming/refuelling etc..

Looks like Repair function doesnt work still (no specific car for repair). Testet on FARP after the new update.

I tried a repair of my Huey on my (Blue) FARP and it worked fine. This was outside the radius of an airfield in the middle of nowhere so it's definitely working. I don't have the list of structures/units that I placed there at the moment - when I get home tonight I'll post the list.

Ok, thx, maybe FARP tent?

Here's what I did to get my blue (i.e western based) FARP working with the Huey. I haven't tried a red based one so I have no idea what to add to that.

 

Note: I probably don't need all of this, I was just dropping stuff down until it started to work - I leave it up to the reader to figure out the minimum :)

 

 

 

I place all my structures in one corner of the FARP within 130m of the centre.

• Drop a trigger zone down with a radius of 130m (helps to keep all the structures within the range of the FARP)

Just did a FARP test post-update. It gave me a 'hot' refuel/re-arm with all the objects in situ around the site. Of course, without the vehicles, tents, etc nothing happens. It would be nice if in a future update we could get the complete FARP set-up with one click like the SAM sites in old Lock On. Guess we could use the template/rubber stamp tool for planting these sites in mission editor.

Can you make a template with all the objects needed for placing beside the farp?

[YoYo]

Yes, confirmed it works now.

 

Just about repair - engine must be turn down and rotor stopped.

Would very much like one of those myself.

(Or rater would want the computer to add the needed vehicles via tickboxes or something when you select a Farp from the menu)
