SYNDICATE server testing

[whoarmongar]

On spawning my plane twisted thru 90*, not a major problem except from then on my compass was 90* out, no wonder I got lost. However was great to be able to connect to a server.

Yep great stuff, did a free hunt to England and like Badaim ran out of patience and straffed 2 spits at an airfield, was briefly chased and shot at crossing the english coast but the pursuer broke off (lack of ammo?) then coming up to the French coast spied a Hurri heading home, turned and got on his tail but couldnt catch him Landed back at base with a few flak/bullet holes in my a/c, again great stuff.

When replaying track was unable to get outside view even after clking edit view, bug?

ps, how do you rearm in game? allocated a button to reload but that didn'e seem to work?

Thx again

Re-arm is something I'm looking into atm. I suspect it will have to be scripted but I'll try certain things first.

Cheers Doghous3, and thx for all your time and effort.

56 would like to try this sever but we are in UK and the server seems to run on GMT(?) so its going to be dark most of our Squad night.

Any chance of adding some Height Lights (under Searchlights) or similar to the ends of the runways?

Hi klem.

The mission should now maintain the same time of day all day long (daylight!). So it should be sunny regardless of whenever you join. Let us know if it does get dark.

Until we can figure out rotations, scripting, etc.etc., still only the 2nd day here, the missions will have a constant time.

Cheers

OK, thanks, I just went in there again for half an hour. I thought it was about 2:05pm to start (BST-3?) and I thought it was about 2:35pm when I left but I maybe wrong.

I did briefly look into various lights, although they didn't seem to work on first inspection; but not really delved into that yet, so they could work, and probably do.

I used Height Lights on a test mission and the worled ok with two problems

1. You can see them through the instrument panel
2. They disappear at a distance, perhaps a few mlies.

I'll post the panel problem in the appropriate thread.
