Impossible to get correct Callsigns for Client Planes after 1.2.6.19532

[shagrat]

Ok, I guess this was meant as a fix, but at least you could trick the ME in using correct callsigns. Now this does no longer work.

I know this is intended to help the mission builder by preventing flights with AI using Callsigns from Client etc.

The thing is after cloning Client flights we now have lots of Hawg 11 or Enfield 11 flights, anyway. So in the past we just could use the little trick to correct the callsigns.

 

Can you leave the Callsign fields editable for the Mission Designer so he may use his wits to setup realistic callsigns as required, pleeeeaaaase? :notworthy:

 

There are no single plane flights without a wingman in real life! Now we have either Pig 11, Pig 21, Pig 31 and Pig 41 (4 single flights without wingmen) or one four ship flight with all planes getting the callsign Pig 11 ?

 

What is so hard to let us decide for ourselves and at least put the callsigns correct!

 

I'm not even asking for the possibility to actually have a GROUP (Flight) addressed as a Multiplayer GROUP. Simply let us choose the callsigns, again!

This. ^

 

This is a ridiculous problem.

While not ideal you can directly edit the mission file to get around it.

                                       ["callsign"] = 
                                       {
                                           [1] = 1,
                                           [2] = 1,
                                           [3] = 3,
                                           ["name"] = "Enfield13",
                                       }, -- end of ["callsign"]

 

[1] is the enumerator for the callsign name used. It is dependent on the type of aircraft used and the rules associated with that aircraft. See the callsigns list for details. http://wiki.hoggit.us/view/Part_2#Commands

 

[2] is the flight number

 

[3] is the aircraft number within the flight.

 

I put in a feature request. If time permits or nothing is done for a while I might research the changes needed to make it work.
