Frequent_Flyer Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 I have set aircraft in their revetments to be targets for ground attack aircraft. However, the ground attack aircraft ignore them ( set as ground targets ). Additionally, since their is a complete crew in the Ju-88's the act as defensive fire. The machine gun position in the bombers fire at the in coming attackers. How do I stop the defensive fire, remove the crew and have my attacking aircraft target the stationary Ju-88's ? I have consulted the availible manuals but have not found this addressed. Thanks in advance
Habu Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 For the stationary plane which are targets, are they entity ? To stop defensive fire, set your waypoint to High.
LLv34_Temuri Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 What about using Blocks as the target instead of Planes? There are those "static_ju88" blocks you can use, that don't fire back. Just remember to create a linked entity and set a low enough durability for them.
Habu Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 What about using Blocks as the target instead of Planes? You can and if it's a stationary plane, it's better to use blocks, which have less polygones and take less ressources, but you have to set them as Entity, if you want that other AI take them as target, or if you want that it count as point for player, with the killing message in the tchat. With your answer Temuri, i understand that i missunderstood what said Flyer. I didn't understand that it's the static plane which return fire, i though it was other planes. So in that case, you must use blocks as entity.
Frequent_Flyer Posted January 10, 2017 Author Posted January 10, 2017 Temuri and Habu, Thank You the " static Block " Ju-88 did the trick. I had know idea these " Static block aircraft "existed
Habu Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Yes, have a look on them, you'll see that there are planes, vehicles, tank, ... Carefull, there are no static block for premium plane.

Carefull, there are no static block for premium plane. I spoke too soon, while the static aircraft do not fire they still are not attacked. If I place a vehicle next to a static aircraft there will be some collateral damage. However the static aircraft are still not targeted.
JimTM Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 Aside: Static objects are covered in "Place a Stationary Object in the View Port" on pg. 52 of the IL-2 Sturmovik Mission Editor and Multiplayer Server Manual. I'll try to work your particular case into the manual somewhere when I put out a new version.

Frequent_Flyer Posted January 13, 2017 Author Posted January 13, 2017 Did you turn it into Entity, with a nationality ? Yes, Entity German, The ME has quite a few quirks, that I hope get some attention for the SP folks.
Gambit21 Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Yes, Entity German, The ME has quite a few quirks, that I hope get some attention for the SP folks. Look for a new thread later on this.
