Ok Problem, there are callsighn?? ogg present, but if i try to play them via SayToGroup nothing happens. :(
So it seems it's better to wait for the next patch, hope the problem is solved.

I think that customising sounds to individuals may be a step too far for now, the existing sounds seem to have most of the comments needed to piece together a decent instruction. I'll write up some design/requirements and example scenarios in which existing logic could be used to create those instructions. I think we could start with some basic vocal instruction and extend the logic in pieces to improve the description as that is proven out.

I need a chat with Farber about his requirements from a German pilot perspective. We need to be careful here, and I'm not trying to gain advantage for the RAF BUT it should be noted that in 1940 it was not possible for German fighter pilots to talk on radios to German bomber crews because they had completely different sets and 'crystals'. This is explained in Ulrich Stienhilpers book "Spitfire on my Tail" who was responsible for radio comms for his squadron. Of course I am open to correction on this, and I'm keen to learn about any use of German radar in directing fighter squadrons - again I don't think there was any, they used radar for attack eg finding ships to target in the Channel.

No, fighters could not communicate with bombers and niether will we, as most if not all will be AI.

FG28_Kodiak 04-11-2012 04:23 PM
Argh sometimes i could the devs ... :grin:

Callsigns work, the oggs are called callsign1 .. etc. but you must write CallSign1 in code :rolleyes:

Osprey 04-11-2012 04:36 PM
You can't use a variable or parameter?

Yes i can, but i must it 'translate' it somewhere. :rolleyes:

Oooo you're working ahead of me :) This looks interesting, when I get back from football I'll run it up in VS and try it in a dedicated server. Do I need any special map set up so it knows about the sectors?

FG28_Kodiak 04-11-2012 04:57 PM
Do you will script this by your own? - No problem i 've some other scriptwork to do. :rolleyes:
At the moment it's only a test for communication, nor other features like sectors implemented.

Osprey 04-11-2012 07:05 PM
No no, I am rubbish at writing the code myself because I am not trained properly. I can only read it and understand it usually, and write basic logic.

I would just like to offer help with getting this working, I think a lot of people would find 'realistic radar' quite useful :)

_79_dev 04-11-2012 08:15 PM
Latest script for menu is up on server, ready to be tested... thanks Kodiak... Conect here http://www.5jg27.net/
