Shaman Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) We have just noticed this issue on <51>SERVER that if CTLD script beacon is dropped and Ka-50 tunes in to it, it works for the pilot.. but with every second FPS deteriorates to a full freeze and then all helicopter clients crash to desktop and server continues running fine. I am disabling this feature of CTLD to drop beacons for the next scenario version to see how it affects server. Excellent script nonetheless.

In addition to shamandgg one question: does anyone had the same experience as described (been on 51st server as that happened yesterday severeral times and was reproducable) and does anyone know why? I flew on other helicopter related servers, dropped beacon via CTLD menu without that following CTD/crash - though I am pretty sure that no KA50 tuned that frequency in on those servers but me flying in the Huey...and I did fine without DCS freezing there. And in particular: why do only Helicopter´s DCS freeze and not fixed wing. It´s a very strange issue we came across.

SNAFU Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 We are using the CTLD and CSAR script on our server. We did not experience the discribed behavior so far, at least I did not note this behavior. Ciribob, it would be great if you could add an option to the CTLD to define the maximum permissible number of troops on board for every helicopter type, for example for the Huey 10, for Mi-8 20 and for the SA342M only 2 or something in this direction? So far I tried to modiy you script so it differentiated between Huey and Mi8, but the script breaks after some time and I cannot pinpoint the cause. I guess it is easier for you, to add this options. Anyhow, great work, as said. ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Unsere Facebook-Seite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am disabling this feature of CTLD to drop beacons for the next scenario version to see how it affects server. Excellent script nonetheless. I encountered a crash in the Mi-8 without using CTLD, just using a trigger zone transmitting a looping sound over the radio. There may be a bug in the transmission code in DCS. I'm going to see if I can reproduce it, then submit a bug to ED.

Shaman Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Yes the client crashes appeared only in scenario version with added non used country audio transmission to for Beacons and Silence sounds following CTLD setup instructions. It has been removed in next version, problem gone. It might be it. 51PVO Founding member (DEC2007-) 100KIAP Founding member (DEC2018-) :: Shaman aka [100☭] Shamansky tail# 44 or 444 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 100KIAP Regiment Early Warning & Control officer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciribob Posted May 20, 2016 Author Share Posted May 20, 2016 Is it possible to add the M818, Ural-375 and HEMMT tanker truck to the pool of transportable/spawneable vehicels? That way, we can "rearm" or reactivate a FARP with fresh fuel and ammo as well as give ground units ammunition by air lifting cargo trucks in for rearming. I'd just edit the the list of cargo here and add it: https://github.com/ciribob/DCS-CTLD/blob/master/CTLD.lua#L435 The unit = "some unit" is the actual name of the unit from the DCS units table or you can find it by opening a mission with the unit in you want to find and finding its name. I'm not sure though that the farp will rearm as I think all the units have to be in the same group for the FARP to pick it up? Not certain though... This script is awesome, we enjoy using and testing it. One thing, I did not get the mortars to fire after deploying them, mobile artillery works though. Mortars can be a bit finicky, unless they have Line of sight at around 3KM or so they wont engage.

Anyhow, great work, as said. ;) My next task will be to allow multiple groups in to CTLD, without group splitting and I would have a table where you can configure the maximum number of units. This is quite a big change though and I'm not in the country most of this and next month so it won't be for a while, sorry! Yes the client crashes appeared only in scenario version with added non used country audio transmission to for Beacons and Silence sounds following CTLD setup instructions. It has been removed in next version, problem gone. It might be it. The beacons in CTLD use the inbuilt beacon functions in DCS so if you're getting a crash, please try to replicate using a normal mission radio trigger and post in the bug section as it is likely a DCS bug :) Again apologies for slow replies, I'm not going to be able to help out with much over the next month or so Scripts: Complete Transport And Logistics Deployment - CTLD / CTLD Examples - Lots of example of how to use CTLD CSAR Script - Downed Pilot Rescue / Dedicated Server Script - Automatically launch DCS Multiplayer server at startup Range Scoring Script - Get scores and counts hits on targets for gunnery or bombs / SimpleSlotBlock - Multiplayer dynamic Slot Blocking Script Projects: DCS-SimpleRadio Standalone - DCS Radio Integration for All Aircraft - NO TeamSpeak Required! :) DCS-SimpleRadio Troubleshooting Post / DCS-SimpleRadio Free Support Channel on Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooternutz Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Hi All! I have the CTLD working but I seem to keep getting a UAZ-469 vehicle when spawning crates for the FOB construction. I see in the script that it is listed on line 1296. I have changed it to other vehicles with success but how can I change that to an actual cargo crate?

EasyEB Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Greetings! Is it possible to get the JTAC to prioritize air defences? I'm using it in a mission with spawning enemy units, so there's no option to use the priority/hpriority function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can revert your DCS to the previous stable that doesn't have the bug using: dcs_update.exe update 1.5.3.52724 The bug has already been fixed internally by ED so will hopefully be in the next patch.

SNAFU Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I have the same behavior with all ground groups greated via Coalition.addGroup(). Guess that is the latest feature introduced by ED.

Shaman Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Would be great if real crates had at least change in appearance to unpacked ones. So they can't be despawned from environment now you mean?
