@Crassus When I read the xml using C#, the line break is “\r\n”.

No, that doesn’t work in XML:

Edit: So (at least for me) I have to carriage return twice, then tab 3 times.

Weird?

Edit Edit: 😜 Carriage returns work “properly” in Brackets. Not sure why Notepad++ is different. Oh well.

I know this is a bit old but Notepad++ is able to convert files to every type of \r\n variant. Check it out.

I don’t know how to put screenshots here

In the most basic manner, you can press the Print Screen button on your keyboard (if you have one) and then just CTRL+V to paste here in a reply box where you type text.

You also can use Windows Snip & Sketch … press SHIFT+WINDOWSKEY+S
…there are selections along the top for the area to snip, mouse drag is the default you will start on - just move the mouse cursor to where you want the screenshot to start, hold left-click and drag the mouse to encompass what you want to screenshot, and then release left-click. This image will now be in your clipboard - you can literally paste it into a reply box here with CTRL+V or onto any image website such as imgur.

If you want more controls, such as viewing the snip after taking it, drawing on it free-hand or with ruler guides or protractor, you can open the Windows Snip & Sketch program itself (I keep it pinned to my start menu). You can even select a 3 or 10 second delayed snip so you can prepare before the capture, helpful for screenshotting mouse-hover text or other timed events.

Best wishes and good luck!

Valid one week.

TE ACMI

Perfectly working as #4.
Followed the tanker on the 150 nm leg.
Asked a second time as #4 alone.
Worked perfectly.
4.36.3.

This is a very cool little training scenario. Besides the refueling and its formation requirements, the mission has you landing overhead requiring holding echelon formation tightly in the overhead approach and landing on-speed at a short airstrip. Nice job, Lorik

@jcook said in The simplest things...:

This seems incredibly easy to plan in real life and in DCS, but so F-ing complicated in BMS. Can anyone give me some hints as to getting this setup

Yes, learn how to use the BMS in game flight planning tool. It will be time well spent if you intend to stick with BMS. It’s much better than DCS, (can’t comment on RL). At its core it works from a TOT (time on target), and everything gets planned around that.

@Todd1215 Presently, the non-descript commands such as “report airborne” or “report overhead break” (and some others) can be changed to be the default for some other group if desired, like if you use the carrier more than airbases, you might want that one to be the default for “overhead break” without having to preface it with “Carrier”.

Please refer to the infographic in the AVCS4 BMS Command Reference for more info:

I sent lots and lots of amendments on these and other AB’s and I thought you had fixed them all, but like I said “perhaps they didn’t make it into U3”

The Pohang charts do not match with the “on the ground” orientation the charts show, in plan, orientation of 260/080 they should be orientated 280/100.

@white_fang @Crassus @CriticalMass @Razor161

🙄🙄🙄ok…there is absolutely no difference between the pods in terms of measurement…

I don’t understand… a parallel universe? A bug in the matrix ? I was sure there were a difference between the two…
The only word that comes in my mind is… ERF.

Is 50 years old the start of the end ???

Sorry for the fake information!!😅

@white_fang I will be back !!😂

@white_fang

same here… 50GB all of a sudden 🙂

Cheers, Uwe

will be they in next release?

@MaxWaldorf said in items not documented:

At some point yes but we lack people to refactor the dash 1…

No promises thus…

Ps: before you ask, no we can’t update the existing dash 1… long story short, the previous maintainer of it left us with a little nasty surprise…

With “next release”, do you mean it’s uncertain if it will make it in time for the next major version (4.37) or the next minor update?

@Tiger78
The default is acmi file. The old, vhs file, need to add the line in Falcon BMS.cfg, g_bTacviewAcmi 2 .

@jayb said in Question for Threat Guide, CBU munitions:

Hello,
What does “lethal radius” mean for CBUs on p. 61? The overall dispersion of all the submunitions is determined by the burst altitude (BA), so BA determines the extent of the kill-zone on the ground. But what does lethal radius mean in this context?
And a followup question, some “lethal radius” values are a single number, while others are two numbers, eg. 1150x1300. What does the latter mean ?
Cheers

some CBU bombs target rather the troops than the vehicles and
in BMS, I guess , radius lethal is for troops while destruction area for vehicles

@Micro_440th much appreciated.

@Micro_440th Did a complete reinstall beginning with 4.36.0. Got the latest 4.36.3 docs.

@Micro_440th @MaxWaldorf @Snake122 thanks 😄
