Repair at FARP broken?

[tietze]

Trying to repair a western KA-50 with appropriate vehicles (APC 1025 HMMWV, Transport M818, HEMTT TFFT) in place at FARP results in a "copy" from ground crew, but no repair is initiated (count down is not starting and no repair is commenced after 3 minutes).

 

Example mission attached (vehicles both added as static and vehicles as well as all FARP support buildings added - still no cigar): farp-test.miz & farp-test-openbeta.miz.

 

DCS World 1.2.6.20768 & DCS World 1.2.7.22412.

Only noticed now that you are referring to 1.2.6, tried it in 1.2.7 and everything works fine.

 

I do however remember that a version of DCS had problems, might be your version. I suggest a upgrade and also make sure you have intercom on before request for repair.

Sorry, but when you say that everything works fine, have you tried the above attached mission (now 2 versions for either latest non-beta and latest beta)?

 

On FARP: Rearming, refueling, ground power, turbo gear, NVG installation, and HMD/HMS installation works fine. Ground crew copies the request to repair but the repair countdown timer is not started and repair is not commenced.

 

Repair is commenced without problems when requested on a non-civilian airfield.

 

Here is a screenshot of the FARP with labels on, to show what vehicles is parked there:

 

Just for good measure here is the relevant part of FARP.lua:

local objects_by_type = {
[RUSSIAN_FARP] = {
	groundCrew = {
		[RESOURCE_AMMO] = { "URAL_4320_B", "SetkaKP" },
		[RESOURCE_FUEL] = { "URAL_ATZ-10", "ATZ-10", "ATZ-60", "GSM Rus" },
		[RESOURCE_ELEC_POWER] = {"Zil_APA-80", "URAL-APA" },
		[RESOURCE_GROUND_SERVICE] = { 
							"UAZ-469", "Ural_4320-31", "Ural_4320_T", "Zil_KUNG", "KAMAZ-TENT", "PalatkaB", --self

							},
	},
	ATC = {
		[RESOURCE_ATC] = { "Zil_SKP-11", "KP_UG" }
	},
	FARP = {
		[RESOURCE_NIGHT_ILLUMINATION] = { "Zil_SKP-11" }
	}
},
[WESTERN_FARP] = {
	groundCrew = {
		[RESOURCE_AMMO] = { "M-818" },
		[RESOURCE_FUEL] = { "HEMTT", "GSM Rus"  },
		[RESOURCE_ELEC_POWER] = { "M-818" },
		[RESOURCE_GROUND_SERVICE] = {

							"M-818", --ammo
							"HEMTT", "GSM Rus", --fuel
							"M-818", -- elec power
							"HMMWV_M1025", "KP_UG" --control point
							}
	},
	ATC = {
		[RESOURCE_ATC] = { "HMMWV_M1025", "KP_UG" }
	},
	FARP = {
		[RESOURCE_NIGHT_ILLUMINATION] = { "HMMWV_M1025" }
	}
}
}

Ok, figured it out: you need a damaged aircraft to get a repair!
