Way I did it, I armed all of my helicopters for ASW Patrol with the Quick Turnarounds on at the very beginning and micromanaged them to go home immediately once they ran out of sonobuoys. I was able to get two of the Argentine submarines that way.

Eboreg

If I may make a request: giving an option to alter sonobuoy spacing on ASW Patrol missions. One big problem with ASW Patrol missions is that sometimes, the default spacing doesn't really take into account the capabilities of the sonobuoys in question. I would love to be able to tighten up the ...

Just an update: I recently installed the beta version on Steam and noticed that the Flaming Dragon scenario still has this problem with the Tejas's at Srinagar and Naliya.

You shouldn't be using the beta update anymore.

And unless you're looking at something else or I missed something, the ...

Alright, I'll say it where it needs to be said. There is a pretty significant issue with the Praying Mantis scenario in that any aggression against the Iranians will cause the Soviets to declare the US hostile.This is most definitely not historical in any way and while I would ask to see this fixed ...

I haven't been very fond of this scenario but I recently decided to check it out after hearing that it got updated. The SITREP is that a Soviet Task Force centered around the Aviation Cruiser Volgograd has somehow ended up in the Barents Sea smack dab in the middle of June, 1944. The commanding ...

Well... the entire purpose of this scenario is to explore whether or not the Ukrainians could actually see enough of the Moskva's poor state of functionality to expect this outcome. Turns out they didn't need to. The Moskva could have easily been knocked out of action for a while even without any of ...

Alright, I recently decided that I had gotten enough information to move on and after a bit of a test run, I ran into a bit of a problem:

Turns out, the Moskva didn't need to be poorly maintained to make the shot worth it.

Yeah... sometimes there is no shame in save-scumming in this game.

It set the time to Midnight, January 1st of Year 1

Alright, I'll see what kind of feedback my altered version gets then put it in the Tech Support thread.

That... sounds like it would break if I put it on another computer.

Code: Select all

local newTime = os.date('%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S', ScenEdit_CurrentTime() + (5*60))
local trigger = ScenEdit_SetTrigger({description='Check For Stand Down', Time=newTime })

Tried to run that code and this is what I got

Code: Select all

ScenEdit_SetTrigger 0 : ,Error in Trigger.Time!

My frustration with the Praying Mantis scenario has been well-documented on this forum but I've just decided to stop moaning about it and actually do something. The fixed version I've attached has Collective Responsibility turned off for the Americans but the Soviet Union will take efforts to ...

So... I've been looking in to setting a timer for an event to go off, say... five minutes after a previous event was fired. i.e. a side has been told to change from weapons hold to weapons tight and I want to reset it back to weapons hold 5 minutes later. However, the lua code I have now sets the ...

I'm not sure that listing of damage aligns perfectly with the db definition of aircraft size. My point is that damage levels are slowing some aircraft and stopping others.

I just loaded a bunch of different aircraft and told them to all take off. Looks like anything that requires more than 2000m ...

I... just checked the database viewer and they're considered medium aircraft...

Eboreg

Just checked...I can't get any aircraft to take off from Mushaf AB. They just recycle the time and say waiting for runway.

I finally got a two JF-17s to take off, but it took a long time to get two airborne. I put a 737 on it and it eventually just resets itself to parked.
