Is shooting down the 40N6 missile used by S-400 possible?

I tried unsuccessfully with a couple of US SAM systems: Patriot, THAAD, and a modified AEGIS Onshore equipped with SM-6.

In all the cases, SAMs were not able to lock on the 40N6 when trying a manual attack.

You are absolutelly correct, the temperature (but no other weather parameters) change depending on the measurement place.

But what is going here? Two measurements taken close to each other - one in France and one in Germany. 10 C difference.

And I was not aware of the time difference between those ...

The displayed temperature seems to be in disagreement both with Weather Editor and weather parameters returned by SE_GetWeather.

Other weather parameters (sea state, rain, undercloud) seems fine.

No Custom Environment Zone is defined at this moment (it was before but was deleted)

Thank you very much for detailed information. I'm going to try all you suggestions as soon as possible.

Do you plan to allow programmatically changing weather in the new Custom Environment Zones?

Thanks for the answer.

Since I've found the opacity setting in the Reference Points Manager, I manually changed it to something sensible like 10-30%.

So the crisis was awerted

Good news, again, thanks a lot!

I'm dealing with this limitation now, but it is far from efficient, and having access to KeyStore brings interesting possibilities.

OK, there is Opacity setting in Reference Point Manager. For all areas opacity was set to 100% in 1307.3.

Seems, I can manage Managed Areas. Hope missions were not become solid too.

Let me give a concrete example.

I've got a script checking time from the last event triggering.

And it is doing it for various events.

Currently, checking time elapsed for a number of events, either requires hard coding event data in the monitoring script, or loading some external event-specific ...

I have just updated CMO to 1307.3, loaded a scenario I was working on recently and was greated with some new eye hurting colors. Area transparency is gone.

Is there a new setting to bring visuals a bit closer to the previous version?

Thank you very much for the suggestion. I've added additional spaces where possible, but it failed :(

As far as I know, the only way to access KeyStore is by using SE_GetKeyValue function.

In order to access a particular stored data, you need to know its name.

But I am not aware of a method to learn what data is currently stored.

This limits KeyStore usability for sharing data betweem scenario ...

I will check out this and not sure I had considered the ground lauchers


An observation from the development scenario, where I've been trying to use Orlan.

Great!

I've just found earlier post re: this issue: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10230&t=392739

For now, a dirty solution is to RTB drones to 'non co-operating' platforms. ScenEdit_HostUnitToParent ...

Did you try just searching this forum first? /cause I know it's been posted here various times over the years.


Yes I did, but I wasn't able to find a solution on the forum.

The double format seems specific for the lat/long data only.

I'm not familiar with padding in this case. Can you explain, please?

As for the resolution, I'm using 4K.

There is a problem with adding (some?) UAVs to their dedicated hosting facilities.

I've tested Russian Orlan drones and UAV Launch Truck as well as MRK Skval.

Both can host Orlan drones. You can order Orlans RTB and they will land there - check attached SCEN.

But you can't add Orlans to these ...

As indicated here the keyword for Air Strike is 'air'

Thanks a lot!
