UHF Intraflight Frequency for Player and Clients A-10C

[davidp57]

In the mission editor, using a VHF frequency for a Player or Client A-10C results in an error.
I changed the radio definitions to use AN/ARC-164 for intraflight comms.

See my post on the DCS World forums.

Ah, this one is correct !
Sorry for all the fuss, I'm only starting to understand how Pull Requests work ;)

What's the symptom of the error? Admittedly I haven't used the A-10 much after these changes. My understanding is that that value only decides what channel the AI broadcasts on, so it shouldn't matter if it shows an error so long as the mission editor isn't "correcting" it on you.

If it's a problem this LGTM though. The A-10 has much less need to talk to AWACS, so the overlapping radio assignment isn't a big deal.

The mission that is being generated cannot be started as there is an error in the definition of the A-10C groups.
See this screenshot

User has to manually change the frequency to a UHF one, before saving the mission.

Gotcha. Yeah, we should merge this then :) That's up to @Khopa though, I don't have such powers.

Could you add a comment with a link to the forum post?

Thanks !
I already did that in the first comment; here it is again.

[DanAlbert]

I meant a code comment :) Something to make sure we don't accidentally "fix" this.

[davidp57]

Oh 😊
Done !

[Khopa]

Thank you both :)

My pleasure, @Khopa ! Thanks for this great project !
I recently discover this and I'm willing to invest in helping.
I wrote a runtime and editor-time framework (https://github.com/VEAF/VEAF-Mission-Creation-Tools) and made some additions to Liberation to generate missions that include it.
