arcuspilot Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) I downloaded the excellent Test_Normandy_Template mission : https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=162976&d=1495923217 and really liked how the player got to choose which team they wanted to be on. I couldn't work out how he did it though. I opened the mission in ME and I'm sure I looked at every single section of it - I must have missed something - could somebody please let me know what it was? This would be a great way for a player to see, from one created mission, what it's like to fly fighters from each side without having to quit out and select a new mission.

canadianbaken Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I believe all you have to do is put both coalitions planes on the map and change them to client. Then when you start the mission it will ask you which side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimes Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 By default if you have just an aircraft with skill set to "player" it spawns you in that aircraft. However if there is at least one 'client' skilled aircraft it will have a menu to choose. If there are clients on both sides it adds the coalition selection UI. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

arcuspilot Posted August 29, 2019 Author Share Posted August 29, 2019 Thanks for the fast replies, guys! I tried the client skill level for both and for one pilot. You're right, you do get the choice. However, when the mission starts, if you F2 through, you'lll see that there's no opponent plane. I've attached a link to a very simple mission I put together using Caucasus and the free aircraft so you can see that I've done that. Please have a look and see if there's something else I need to do. https://www.dropbox.com/s/45xamlvs0yghqk7/Coalition%20choice.miz?dl=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianbaken Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 You will have to add other planes as AI. Just putting 2 planes as clients just makes it kinda like a multi-player mission. If the plane is set as client or player it won’t spawn unless someone gets in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcuspilot Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 Guys, you're absolutely right. Now it works perfectly. I've set up a flight of AI aircraft for each coalition for the player to fight against. Thanks very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
