All I've been doing is "instant action" and only just ventured into Missions over the weekend. Took one look at the Mission Editor and got dizzy. This video certainly helps. Thank you!
Tilly, this is awesome!!! I haven't been too good at the mission editing, but just this video is probably all I need to set up some good training missions for myself when I'm not online. Thanks a lot. Look forward to flying with you guys soon.
Q thanks The nice thing about putting a simple mission together with this kind of randomisation is that you have replayability And you, as the designer, are kept surprised about which units spawn, and where Which is good for single player missions :)
Tilly B question for you, do you know how to make an AI group spawn at a specific time instead of immediately? I tried triggers but the AI groups still start automatically
There's a couple of ways to do it. If you want them to spawn after a set time, then the condition you use is "time is more" then enter the time in seconds I'll look at this in relation to ground units in the next tutorial
I wonder how to change planes - opening up a mission and selecting a different one from the drop down. But maintaining the mission options in the ATC menu area in-game. When I switch planes or helicopters, it removes the availability of in mission/sidemissions.
Tilly, How do you make all the videos and get such good shots? Is this all just using the F2 key? Are you in a jet while doing this and fly with the group too? Thanks. Subscribed. :)
As @PepperPete11 said, great stuff! I am finally getting into DCS World and these vids are a great help. The only thing that would have made this one even better is if we could have watched you fly it once you finished the set up! :) Subbed and watching Sir!
Thanks . I set up a basic mission to practice formation flying. I added an F18 since thats what I want to fly and set it to client. I also added a Hog aircraft to set its way points. When i clicked Fly, i have both aircraft flying. How do I get in the F18? Got it working have to only pick yellow cars
Missing Points: what do the Mirages do at WP2 (editing an attack) Where is is the mission to DL and try Where is the vid to show what units spawn at the mission beginning (ground units)
fantastic tutorial ... would it be possible to show some tips on inserting scripts and getting them running ..many thanks and keep the great vids coming
Hello, first of all, youre doing great tutorials! I just want to give it a try and see if i find some help here. I also checked all of the other tutorials, but nothing fits to my problem, so im asking here: I am trying to recreate a historical ww2 mission: Erscorting B17 with 10/10 or 9/10 cloud cover (completely overcast). 9/10 and 10/10 cloud cover causes the 8.8cm Flak to be completely blind, so they dont shoot at all. At 8/10 its working but the sky wont show up completely overcast, in a way i realy dont want to leave it like that. Any idea how to get the AAA ignoring the cloude cover or recognizing the enemy ... Or even get the AAA shooting in a specific direction at a specific height? Im somewhat desperate. Hope someone can help me. Thanks and best wishes Momo
Basic mission editing..... but cannot fly because you press fly and it tells you your mission is delayed and you sit 200 feet in the air looking at a blank airfield! hour wasted ... sad face....
Hey just want to say years later people are still getting great help from your video's and we all appreciate it. :)
08-06-2020 here :D
24-05-2021 still the case 👍🏻😀
2022 still here
2022-03 still helped, thanks!
04-2022 and these are super useful. :)

Still VERY useful, thank you. GR is awesome, thank you all!
A bit old now lol
Thank You for this! I'm late to the party, but it's a big help!
Thank you so much for this tutorial, it is very helpful for me to get closer to the use of planes and their weapons
Tilly, this is awesome!!! I haven't been too good at the mission editing, but just this video is probably all I need to set up some good training missions for myself when I'm not online. Thanks a lot. Look forward to flying with you guys soon.

The nice thing about putting a simple mission together with this kind of randomisation is that you have replayability
And you, as the designer, are kept surprised about which units spawn, and where
Which is good for single player missions :)

I'll look at this in relation to ground units in the next tutorial
So for the mission I was creating, I wanted them to spawn after a certain group arrived at their location, but maybe ill try using the time method
Q have the group enter a trigger zone.
On group enter, set flag "1" to be 1
Flag "1" is more "time" - activate group "enemy"
Just got dcs in the last month. Wicked video. Thanks!!!
Thanks for this! I'm a newbie that's been staring at the ME without a clue ;
Great video, very well done with simple and effective examples. Thank you.
Man, I just created 2 missions, 1 is landing training, and the other is air to ground, THANK YOU!
Thanks for the very useful information, your work is appreciated.

Excellent introduction. Thankyou.
epic intro Broken Beat & Scared
Tilly, How do you make all the videos and get such good shots? Is this all just using the F2 key? Are you in a jet while doing this and fly with the group too? Thanks. Subscribed. :)
This may be my calling as an ops guy while I’m earning my wings.
Thanks again
This is super helpful. Thanks!
All of my missions are "random". I never know what if anything will happen.
VERY helpful! Thanks for the tutorial! :D
Very well explained.
That FPS at the start
Good information

When i clicked Fly, i have both aircraft flying. How do I get in the F18? Got it working have to only pick yellow cars
one has to be client or player
@@kentbrookman Yea thanks. Got that from the video. Didnt realize the yellow options are the ones I had to pick lol . Thanks
Your work is good ...
Why can't you put player option. Why does it have to be client? If I make a mission like this for solo will it work
Missing Points:
what do the Mirages do at WP2 (editing an attack)
Where is is the mission to DL and try
Where is the vid to show what units spawn at the mission beginning (ground units)
Hey cap I’m having a massive problem with placing aircraft on a carrier to start on one, can you help??
Whats wrong?
hey, can you explain to me what a waypoint is?
Can we watch ai vs ai casually in this game?
on my a10a when i click on the payload i want it does not work for and it won’t save the payload so i can put a payload on plz help
fantastic tutorial ... would it be possible to show some tips on inserting scripts and getting them running ..many thanks and keep the great vids coming
Lee Tempus if you mean scripts like the CTLD transport scripts, then possibly
But that's something I'm still trying to get working myself
Even tough I have client on my planes the ai takes over and I am stuck in spectator mode.
What the hell?
@@grimreapers yeah it was really weird. I restarted the game several times and after 4th restart it worked, idk what happened :/

Sorry but they will not shoot through a 9 or 10 cloud, or if the lights is below a certain level.
@@grimreapers rgr
Thanks for the reply
Why do AI planes crash into ground? Thats crap.

Well that audio quality is quite unfortunate
