Mission 15, Final Nail, Triggers triggers in incorrect order?

Started mission, some reports about fighters and an Il-76 coming South-East towards a lake. Which made no sense.

Started plane, flew to quarry, then lake.

To fighters were reported, might be escorts.

Orbited the lake for a while.

Decided to fly to Soganlug. Was shot down, by something. SAM?

Restarted, then the above messages made sense.

Am I doing something wrong?

Stable 2.5.6.53437

Enjoying this! :)

Nope, you're not doing anything wrong. There's an error in the mission. I have already sent the fix to ED. It should make the next open beta update. .... unfortunately, if you're flying stable, it might take a little longer to make it to that branch.

I have both, so no problem! Thanks!

Hi. I'm having the same problem with Mission 15, Final Nail with the Sabre. I'm a noob when it comes to DCS, but I believe I updated to the recent Beta that was released this past Wednesday (Aug. 19th) 2.5.6.52437 and I'm still getting radio messages that the IL-76 and escort fighters have already departed Soganlug before I have time to fire up my Sabre at Beslan. Like I said, I'm pretty new to DCS, so I don't know what "flying stable' means. Do I just need to wait a few more days or is there something I need to do while I'm in the game, etc? This is a fantastic campaign! I appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Hey smittjames, thanks for the report there. It looks like you're playing (flying) the "Stable" version of DCS with that version number you posted. https://updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com/

Typically the Beta will become the Stable a week or two later, but there's no guarantee. This issue should have been resolved in the Beta version.

So you can do one of two things, download the Beat version or simply wait. It certainly does take up a good chunk of real estate on your hard drive to have both versions, but most of the people I know fly just the Beta. There's pro's and con's to it. But I personally think the pro's outweigh the con's.

If you're a "noob" and made it to Mission 15 (really mission 21) of the campaign ... that's not "noob"ish at all! :) Nice work!

Thanks for the advice, Apache600! I'll probably just wait it out and see if it eventually gets fixed.

I really loved the Museum Relic campaign. "Cloak & Dagger" took me about 20 times to get it right, but it was really rewarding when I finally got my timing and altitude figured out.

Even though I really like the F86, I'm probably just going to play through it again with the Mig 15.

Thanks again for your help and all your work!
