reported [BUG REPORT] - big fire cannot be destroyed in MP dedicated server

[HC_Official]

Since there is no way to turn off the big fire objects in DCS you can use the destroy command to get rid of them (when you want the fire to go out)

This sadly will only work in single player

If you try to do the same thing in DEDICATED MULTIPLAYER SERVER it will not work

See attached miz file

 

Instructions to reproduce

SP test
1. Load this mission in DCS mission editor
2. run the mission
3. Observe the BTR in F7 view
4. To the north of it is a big fire .... it is burning
5. Wait 20 seconds the fire dissappears (there will be a message)

MP DEDICATED SERVER test
1. Load this mission on YOUR DEDICATED MP server  - NOT just host your own MP server , there is a difference, make sure you server pauses with no clients connected
2. Connect to the DEDICATED DCS SERVER as a client
3. Observe the BTR in F7 view
4. To the north of it is a big fire .... it is burning
5. Wait 20 seconds the fire does NOT dissappear (there will be a message)

You cannot delete the fire object in DCS DEDICATED server
but you can when running the mission in the mission editor/SP
