Re: Sector Control Comms LUA?


Thanks, I've fixed on issue with the scenario setup (seems that some terrain altitudes changed from last year)

The Sector Control is not that hard, you need to create a good data structure and then capture when the units are killed.

For example for each sector you add an HQ unit and a Comms unit ...

Re: Sector Control Comms LUA?


I don't know of any scenario that does this specifically.

Down Town, 1967 (Standalone Scenarios) has a script that sets the North Vietnamese IADS to comms out when the sector control station is destroyed. It Could be adapted pretty easily. I'd caution against doing it for aircraft though. The ...

Sector Control Comms LUA?

Hey guys,

Does anyone happen to have an off - the - shelf LUA script for sector control station destruction (i.e. a pulsed event which causes units within a certain radius or RP - area to go out of communication if the sector control station no longer exists?)

I can probably figure it out myself ...

Re: Intercept Mission all targeting same aircraft


Are you still having issues with this?

I played your scenario file and all the bombers are shot down or damaged. Two Backfire get through and are shot down by the FFG 7 Oliver Hazard Perry and I had to point one F-14 towards four Badger that slipped through.

Initially what I saw was all the ...

Re: Intercept Mission all targeting same aircraft


if it is a Patrol Mission, there is a setting allow you to decide the # of AC investigate unknow target and # of AC engage a hostile target. But this option doesn't exist for an intercept mission.


Yeah, I know. I just thought that I had found the way to make interception missions work, but now ...

Re: Intercept Mission all targeting same aircraft



I'm not sure I know what you mean, could you explain?


I'll try.

IIRC Doctrine/WRA settings separately apply to the side, a mission(s) and the unit(s). Mission settings once setup may not always match the current unit settings. To remedy that, after setting the Doctrine/WRA for a mission ...

Intercept Mission all targeting same aircraft

Hey guys,

Can anyone tell me how to fix the problem of all the aircraft on an intercept mission going after the same target? What's really peculiar to me is that I've been keeping notes, and those notes say that I solved this problem by changing the "shooters per salvo" setting, which makes perfect ...

Re: A simple method for automating complex tanker operations


With your scenario, I wanted to demonstrate that one could set up a refuel operation and imbed it in the flight path of a ASuW patrol. I simply did not bother to see what happens next after all bombers have refueled successfully. Nikel noticed that they enter into an infinite patrol loop until ...

Re: A simple method for automating complex tanker operations


Hey KP, I have a question: you seemed unsure as to the benefit of using this patrol mission method as opposed to using regular strike missions. Is this because, if you wanted to set up a large number (dozens or hundreds) of missions, each with their own refueling points, you would use a LUA script ...

Re: A simple method for automating complex tanker operations




I do not understand the problem. What do you mean by "they will not proceed?" As for not RTBing, they're not supposed to RTB until after you inactivate the bomber patrol, which is the last step. Are you saying that this isn't working somehow?

STEP BY STEP GUIDE


Running your scenario, the Strato-Jets are refueled, but they are in infinite loops 5-6.

The will not proceed and they do not return to base, with this message.

Is there a way to edit all the flights at once, so that you can set a refuel point for many flights with a few clicks? If so, this is what I actually expected to be the best answer when I first made my thread, but I do not know how to do it and nobody brought it up. I have been looking for a ...

Re: A simple method for automating complex tanker operations


Why over-complicate? The vanilla approach seems to works fine (for me).

I arrange that the tankers to be on station 30 mins before the bombers, I place a refuel waypoint for the bomber flights inside the tankers area, limit refueling to 2 receivers per tanker and Ta..da.... All works fine

Refuel in CMO is a mystery to me :?

However I see that you are using B1676 and an old database.

I would try with the last beta (and the last db), as some of the fixes listed are related to refuel issues.
