Hi all,
So, I stumbled upon a YouTube Video this morning that will allow me to make the training missions a bit more dynamic and unpredictable. I’ve got more information on randomisation for aircraft and units spawning, what flight paths they choose and even how many spawn in.
It’ll take me some time to implement, but I will work on it when I get a chance to (I might start on it this evening rather than fly). Anyway, watch this space and we’ll see what I can come up with so that it is not just the same old same old…might even make it so that you have to scramble occassionally as E/A come in to attack the airfield!!! :bootyshk:
Hi all,
I’ve spent the last three and a half hours playing with the mission editor and I have come up with a couple of WW2 missions with the P-51D and the Spitfire Mk IX to try out. The outcome is not assured and the opposition is…unknown. There could be 109s, there could be 190s, there will be AAA. Both missions are ground attack flights for the P-51 with Spitfires as cover. The opposition skill is random and that’s if they even show up. You have to keep your lookout and escort the Mustangs!

I’ve realised that this may preclude one or two people that may wish to fly from joining in. I will add German aircraft to the other side, and I will also add the TF-51 for those that do not have any of the above aircraft.
I intend to make something similar for Korean era aircraft. As I get the hang of the randomised triggers I will make the missions more complex. For now they are still relatively straight forward - but they are still meant to be like training missions.

(P.S Red I’m also hoping to make some for the A-10C!)
Sounds good OD, unfortunately I’m not around tonight, but will be on during the week if your wanting to test any new missions

Cool!
good work OD!
I would like to join, what time and nights are you running it?
I’ve tested it with Puff on Monday, briefly. I can run it on Thursday but that’s when the BoS campaign is. Sunday evening is also possible. At the moment they’re relatively simple missions with straight forward objectives. They’re for practice but also to test the randomisation - so they don’t take too long and I have made two.
If people like them and they work then I’ll keep working on new ones, but it’s mostly Monday and Thursday evening when I get to be on the PC so it may take some time!
If you’re not flying BoS, I’m in on a DCS training!
~S~ OD…
I do look forward to giving this a go!
Unfortunately I’m out to the Far East again at the weekend (Singapore) and won’t be around until the following weekend.
Hopefully no more travelling for while after that!
OD, are you going to run this tonight 3/16/17, If so what time?
Sorry, not been on the forum. I’m online now.
OD, I’m on your TS test server. I sent you a PM.
