Quick Battle Generator video tutorial

Post by oetjoel »

Hi guys,
I'm a newcomer to CMO. I'm really glad that finally the devs made Quickbattle Generator in this game. However the airframe options is too few for A2A engagement, so is the location, which is only in the North Sea.

They say we can edit it to suit our taste. Bad news is I'm sucks at editing file. Can any of you please make a tutorial video on how to add more units into QBG? That would be awesome and really helpful for user like me. Or perhaps the video tutorial is already out there?

Cheers!

Sure! I'll whip up something tonight. I just dug into it a bit and it's actually pretty straight forward.

I agree. It took a hour or so for me to get to the point where Gatcom will get you to in less than 10 minutes. Thanks Gatcom.

Wow this is like dream come true. Thanks a lot Gatcomb! Too bad he doesn't explain how to add more location other than the default North Sea area. Maybe you guys in here know how to do that? Please explain it to me.

Cheers!

I made a brief bit on the wiki that calls out location. I'm expanding more Quick Battles now and will release them as they are finished.

Hey thanks for that. Anyway, can we add more locations into QBG with just editing the html? Lua files seem complicated to me.

One directs the other. So yes, you could make a selection in the html, but it would still have to be tied into the lua script. You could make it where you manually add the lat-lon in the html, but still need to make the script accept the value.

Hi Titanium, is it possible if you make a tutorial video on how to change the locs? Youtube perhaps?

Hot off the presses (you may have to let it finish processing to watch it however).
