NeedzWD40 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 As of Open Beta 2.5.6, destroying a search light at night when the search light is on will cause a game crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExplosion Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Do you even get them to work in 2.5.6? I activate them and have an enemy bomber formation fly about 400m directly above them and the search lights dont move at all. Kein Anderer als ein Jäger spürt, Den Kampf und Sieg so konzentriert. Das macht uns glücklich, stolz und froh, Der Jägerei ein Horrido! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrExplosion Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Yep I was following SUNTSAG's guide. They do activate but they dont move at all even when the bombers fly directly above them at 400m altitude. Kein Anderer als ein Jäger spürt, Den Kampf und Sieg so konzentriert.

SUNTSAG Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 If you are using metres set the value to 609 they will work then. 400m is too low. Callsign: NAKED My YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExplosion Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 609m above sea and above ground both tested without success. Lights activate, bombers fly over them, lights stay passive.

MrExplosion Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Switched to imperial units to try it with exactly 2000ft but no success either. Does it work for you? Could you attach a sample mission file or something? Kein Anderer als ein Jäger spürt, Den Kampf und Sieg so konzentriert. Das macht uns glücklich, stolz und froh, Der Jägerei ein Horrido!

SUNTSAG Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Here is my original test mission. Cheers.SEARCH.miz Callsign: NAKED My YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExplosion Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Thanks! :) I installed the Marston Mat mod, got the mission running and boom all search lights worked. Changed time to 03:30 and added some clouds and that broke the search lights. Probably because the units cant spot the bombers. Confirmed bug imo, cuz historically they were guided by radar and should at least be searching the sky even if they cant see anything. Thanks for your kind help, Suntsag!

SUNTSAG Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 My pleasure. NineLine did say they were still "heavy work in progress" so it's going to take a little time following the core engine updates I guess. Cheers.
