I saw this on another server Melbo, TOW Tripod. Looked pretty cool. Might be a creative way we can get this implemented on the server.

Anyone know where Robin Hood is hanging out these days? (And don't say sherwood forest!)

Yea one of those, they had them lying about like we used to have machine gun placements randomly spawn lol.

Server was a bit mental tbh /o\

Do you guys have LZ39s in the mission now? If so then may i suggest you remove the warehouses going right across the middle of balota airfield? The runway's barely long enough as it is

If the LZ wasnt supposed to be there, then someones been spawning stuff in around 11:30pm. (sorry if this is the case, couldnt resist taking it for a spin

)

Warehouses are there for a reason, there's enough room to take off!

True, but barely enough for an LZ39. Think 'riding the edge of the stall warner and holding your breath whilst kissing the treetops' type of takeoff. Wouldn't even dare try a landing there given the nature of arma's flight mechanics (when I found the plane it was badly damaged and nose facing the warehouses - would suggest that someone previously had attempted to land and crashed into them). Could you not at least move the warehouses back a bit if they serve a purpose?

Xcept1 · 7 May 2013 at 13:28

Are you trying to just bolt out of the hanger and take off straight away? The warehouses are there to prevent this. Try to to taxi around on the airfield first. Just recorded this, if it's possible at Balota then the other airfields should be no problem!

No, as I said i found it right in front of and facing the warehouses that cross the runway. Looks like someone had tried to land it and hit the warehouses. I had to ram it with a car to turn it around and then takeoff, so i used pretty much every last inch of availiable runway

. Watching your video you did do a better job than me (i did panic-pull up a little early, around 120-130ish, haven't had much practice in LZ39s XD) but you were still pretty close to the trees. Surely a few extra meters, or even repositioning the hangars on the western side of the runway (as the eastern side doesnt have as many obstructions ... bar the ditch ...) would give a little extra room for error.

On a side note, if jets are going to be a permanent feature, then theres a 'taxi reverse' script floating around somewhere (used in warfare). Should stop people getting stuck in front of buildings like that!

Edit: saw your reasoning as to why they are there in the first place. I guess that rules out switching sides, but I'm sure there can be a few extra meters of runway to be gained here!

Just put the jets into the towing array. Job done.

+1, thought he was going to stall it and crash, but oh noes, he turned around and only landed it :cool:

Was going to but you get some cretins towing them through the hanger walls!

Oh, added the GAU12 with 300 rounds to the L39.

MarkeR · 7 May 2013 at 20:52

Can you not discern what vehicle can tow another one? Been a while since I looked at the code in rf3.

thingemajib · 7 May 2013 at 21:32

servers been down for about 45 mins - can someone put another log under it/poke it/yell at it for a bit please?

edit: nvm, its back

MarkeR · 7 May 2013 at 21:37

Melbo

To fix the ammo boxes at Novy I think it is, add these spawn points/markers in

Spawn_225
Spawn_597
Spawn_606
Spawn_666

and in the sqm file remove the # from

name="Spawn_213#";

Small update to our Wasteland server:

Ban Appeals should now be directed @ Ban Appeals Top section for Ban Appeals. Please do not use the Men Behaving Sadly forum for appeals any more.

Melbo is working on changes to the mission file and we are looking for feedback on what you would like to see. So either reply here or leave a comment on our Wasteland Section:

Gunstores on the server currently FFA, also testing moving the gunstores from their traditional spots. Looking for feedback on both issues.
