Glide Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I have campaigns with A-10C Client flights, but I don't own the module. I am not able to add A-10C II flights to my mission because, I assume, I don't own the module. Will players who download my missions be able to jump into my A-10C with their A-10C II modules?

HC_Official Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 no even if you do not own a particular module, you can still add it to a mission in the Missions editor No more pre-orders Click here for tutorials for using Virpil Hardware and Software Click here for Virpil Flight equipment dimensions and pictures. .

Frederf Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 They're different planes. It's the same thing as if it was an F-5 and an A-10. Not being able to fully author missions regardless of module ownership is annoying but there's a way around. Make your mission but set the player unit to 'Client'. Save the mission, change .miz to .miz.zip, open zip, open file mission in Notepad. Replace 'Client' with 'Player'. Save mission file. Replace mission file in zip with edited one. Rename .miz.zip to .miz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glide Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 My point is that I don't see the A-10C II in the mission editor. I only see the A-10C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catweedle Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 You may have "Historical list of units" enabled (clock symbol at bottom in ME). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glide Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Found it. The A-10C II does not appear under COMBAT. It appears under ALL beside COUNTRY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimes Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Click the watch icon on the bottom bar. That is "historical" mode which is a feature that filters the list of available units based on the year and country. Sometimes when objects get added to the game they forget to update the historical database with that new object, as a result if you have it enabled the object won't be selectable. You can turn this mode on or off at any point, its just an optional filter. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Glide Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Thanks Grimes. I see there's a filter on COUNTRY in OpenBeta now. See attached. You are correct; it just needs to catch up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimes Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I was talking about this. See the screenshot. Note how the list is different and the title has the year being used to filter the aircraft listed. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Glide Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 Now, I'm not too sure what the COMBAT/ALL toggle button does. The Watch is the key. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimes Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Combat/All is a filter for accessing the neutral coalition. With it on combat only countries assigned to red/blue show up. With it on All then every country is listed. I guess it also displays every object assigned to a given country regardless of the historical filter. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.
