This is the second mission we ran. Planning went smoothly and I build the mission without problems. I'm using Mission Lenght 3 hours, actual flying time 1.5h.
When I loaded the initial template I had to set the time to 7am, to end up with 10am in SEOW DCS. Never understood that.
Then I removed in progress and we started plotting for the 10am mission.
The mission went smoothly but there was a problem while analyzing and I had to run the analysing twice. That worked although we ended up with double stats, which was fixed by removing double entries from the objmissiondisposition table. I'm just adding this in case this has anything to do with the time difference between the SEOW DCS and the time the ground/air missions were to start.
Here's the problem. After building the mission I noticed (only when everybody was connecting
) that no flights were visible. I opened the mission file and saw that no flights were planned and no ground movement was planned either. After some checking up we found that all missions had been scheduled to start at 16 hours! The SEOW DCS was at 13h (first mission started at 10am). In the end we decided to change the attribute Mis_time in the table missiondata from 10 to 13, which did the trick and brought the time in SEOW DCS to 16h.
I then rebuild the mission and it had all the planes. However, when we ran the mission there was mass disconnections of about 20 players over 5-10m. I should note, that I had no backup of the DB before building the mission the first time around (simply forgot
) So in order to be able to rebuild the mission we went into the sector_status table and deleted the bottum line which was value built for attribute Campaign_Status. I did get some errors when building about the unit_name_mapping (bunkers it seems) but the mission built none the less.
What would you recommend we do? Do we need to replot the mission? Do we need to clean out some more tables? I do have a backup from 2 days before the mission with about half moves plotted (I did that when we resolved the double statistics problem).
Any help would very much be appreciated!
