Radar

To enable Radar does the MP have to be on the same machine as the machine hosting the mission :? I have not tested this but it seems logical that this would be the case. But there must be a way to get the radar returns to a remote host of the MP.

Hi Wolfhound,

Radar has two independent components:

1. HSFX writes radar log files periodically to a folder inside the game installation.

2. MP4 periodically inspects a nominated folder for radar log files, and displays the contents in the MP radar control screen.

The easiest way of getting all this to work is set the MP nominated folder to be the same as the HSFX radar log folder, with the MP and HSFX on the same machine. If they are on different machines, then a mechanism will have to be set up to automatically transfer radar log files from one machine to the MP nominated folder on the other machine.

Cheers,
