I heard you like zones?
🕑 Added 2022-06-29 09:41:34 +0000 UTCI'm about 80% of the way through making this mission. We start off in the South West and will work our way across the map. The other difference here is that the map is pretty much covered in zones, but I've placed about 700 spawn locations on the map where units will spawn within these zones. What this means is we won't have units hiding in the super dense forest, and instead on the edge of a forest or in a clearing between buildings. I still need to place down blue aircraft, some trigger things, build the foothold store, test the enemy CAP out and setup waypoints.
Also just in-case you missed it, I've launched our ouw AWACS Bot - Magic 1-1! This will be replacing the in-game AWACS and unlike the in-game awacs, makes use of the ground radars rather than only providing bogey dope and picture calls based on what the AWACS can see which was only 170NM. So we will now have a connected radar system which will be able to give us a much bigger picture of enemy air detected by our radars and airborne awacs.
AWACS Magic 1-1 is of course free of charge and only requires that you have SRS installed and tuned into the frequency 243am or the Guard frequency (marked by the letter G next to the radio frequency as shown in my attached images).
Magic 1-1 will callout your specific callsign so you know it's communicating with yourself eg. Chazz Barramundi M1F 058 Enemy CAP Position Bearing X, Range Y, Altitude Z. You can call this bot as often as you like and everyone tuned into the frequency 243am will hear the callback from the AWACs Bot. Currently you might have two players call the bot at the same time so the audio from the bot will over-lap, making it difficult to hear, however you will get a text readout in the top right of your screen and you can call Magic 1-1 again if you prefer. In the callout from Magic 1-1, it will give you the BRA of the nearest enemy air target to yourself. (unlike the in-game awacs which would prioritise enemy air 300NM away....)
Magic 1-1 will also give a BRA callout every 3-5 minutes using the BullsEye as a reference point, so that CAP is alerted that there is enemy air in the area. CAP may then decide to call a Bogey Dope to get a better idea of where the target is. The bot will be active on all servers and free for you to use!
To navigate to the bot but it is essentially Radio Menu \ > Other... > AWACS > Bogey Dope.
