Hello everyone,

 

Today I've made a small CDK mission with the "british" D.520 (I own it) where you fly with a SO.4050 Vautour IIA...

 

The mission work but my problem is that when I want to watch the replay it says "Hero in userMission must be a unit owned by player"...

 

Do you also own the Vautour IIA? Every time I've seen the "Hero" error message, it's because you don't own that unit.

I Hello @Kolo101Im not sure that there are requirements for this but i MAY be wrong. Multiplayer missions are not where i know best because i have never made one before. Try messaging @Flame2512 he might be able to assist you with that.

[SPARK_BOG 0]

Ahh fair enough. @Flame2512 could you help me with MP missions? The question was what are if there is any the requirements for hosting a multiplayer mission? I have purchased more than 10 euros on the game and i dont get why i cant host one still?

[Flame2512 3,366]

In that case you should be able to. The launch post said:

Any player who purchased any War Thunder item that costs at least 10 Dollars or Euros in the Gaijin.Net Store will have an opportunity to do this now.

 Maybe contact support or ask in a tech support area of the forum. My only guess is they mean an individual item that cost 10 euros, not 10 euros in total.

[SPARK_BOG 0]

@Flame2512 Well i do use steam maybe that's the problem, gona check that forum out.

Go under the weapons and bullet tab in unit properties and set them to have however much ammo you want.

I have a mission created with the previous CDK that works fine. With the new CDK (2018-03-16) when I rewrite the same file, with no modifications, it became not working because WT said "bad mission parameter". I compare the two file and find a lot of differences.

Honestly I have no idea how to read that file.

[nordkind 51]

Thank you for your help! However the issue is as follows: I have a user made mission at hand that I didnt create myself. Therefore  I only see the blk files which I then open in a texteditor. 

To be specific I am talking about the tank_polygon map for shell testing.

The creator missed to put shells in a lot of tanks.


Heres an example of one:

bin_dump_file:t=""

  layer{

  }

  layer{
    enabled:b=yes
  }
}

wayPoints{
}

Now the tank does not carry any ammunition on the map. Even though theres ammuntion set in the code. I think the ammo type might be wrong? Or what could be the issues? Maybe this code sequence is not even the issue and I have to look somewhere else?

Am I able to open user made missions in the cdk and adjust them by myself?

Thank you very much for your help!

 

 

Edit: For anyone wondering; the shell amount and type is indeed the following code:

    weapons:t="germ_kpz_70_default"
    bullets0:t=""
    bullets1:t=""
    bullets2:t=""
    bullets3:t=""
    bulletsCount0:i=20
    bulletsCount1:i=20
    bulletsCount2:i=20
    bulletsCount3:i=20

And you dont need to set a realistic amount of shells. If you fill in more than the tank has, it still works and fills the ammo racks.

Lol, the file differece.txt that I posted is a product of "diff" command under Linux.

The string after ">" is the string that appears on new file after using new CDK

The numbers are corresponding at the line of the file analysed.

 

I also check it manually. problematic strings are the following:

 

 object_var_comp_op:t="equal"
 object_var_value:i=0
 object_var_name:t=""

 

Afetr removed this it works fine.

Is there a way to make single vehicle type missions so that users can select ammo types and amount before going in, like war thunder's own game modes?

Edited March 19, 2018 by Zegera

[Gne73 17]

Sure, in missions, without limitations, you can choose vehicles and ammo.

You can manually create the UserMission folder in your root folder, if it doesn't exist. Like this: Warthunder/UserMissions

How do I view the different shells for a vehicle in the cdk?  I am trying to find the CDK names of the APFSDS, HEAT, and HESH shells of the XM-1 GM.  How do I find the CDK names of those shells so I can use them in a usermission?

 

@yourdonefor

[MrADATS 193]

Hello @Ravenpaw3 place the tank into mission via cdk and open object properties, the bullets will be there,

I've watched the 2014 CDK videos. Are there any up to date tutorial videos out there? I want to start by making a very simple tank mission. Advice and/or help greatly appreciated. Thanks for your hard work!

I just made usermission but i don't know how to reduce player's plane fuel.

It's always full of fuel. How do i start mission with reduced fuel?

Hello @AA_Specialist sorry ive been a bit busy, but I can help you. Its in the trigger settings I believe.

Hello @yourdonefor 

I just started with mission editor and looking to create multiplayer historical mission, battle of Sedan 1940.

 

My first question is about the units. Where can I find all types of artillery and anti tank guns? The only piece of artillery I found is howitzer. Couple of years ago, there were anti tank guns at Kursk map, they were removed. I wonder if they are still available in editor?

 

I also cannot find pillboxes, which I need to recreate French defenses on hills overlooking Meuse river.

 

Thanks!

1. Create an unit:

 

2. Press P to show the object properties

 

Artillery, pillboxes (they are called uk_bunker, uk_bunker_light etc.) and other similar units should be in the "structures" type.

The "objectGroups" type contains indestructible objects (trenches, airfields etc.)

AAA units you should be able to find in the "air_defence" type.

Thanks @RideR2

Is there any way to make field guns and bunkers more accurate? I set up 5 bunkers and 76mm field guns and driving in a tank in front of them at 500-800m and they cannot hit me even once. Is the fire mode 'fire at will' just make them fire in random directions?
