myquestion is; does client take more resources or slow frame rates in relation to player? i know that client is primarily for multi-player, so i am wondering if this will effect my performance (FPS) in any way by using client instead of player.

Client is for MP. Also work for SP. you will have the option to change aircrafts when you run units. set to client in SP missions when you want use more than one aircraft. Just be careful not to set Client and then Player at the same time edition, because ones you set player all the rest change to AI skills automatic


It shouldn't have any effect on playability. The "Player" setting will force the user into that aircraft slot as soon as the mission loads, and will allow access to some additional features such as items in the scoring system pertaining to structured campaigns.


Visit the Hollo Pointe DCS World server -- an open server with a variety of COOP & H2H missions including Combined Arms. All released missions are available for free download, modification and public hosting, from my Wrecking Crew Projects site.


One way is to use scripting but its not really optimal and its quite similar to a method previously used. Basically you check if the client is alive when they shouldn't be and destroy it. Now people have used the explosion trigger, but there is a cleaner way to do it with scripting...


Its cleaner because it simply de-spawns the aircraft, which adds it back to the resource system, but also won't wreck the area it spawns around like an explosion would. I said its not optimal, because you are removing a player from the mission basically the moment they spawn in and they might not know or understand why.


These do get activated when vehicles enter a zone. If a Client tries to Join one of these Ka-50 slots before they are activated the Client gets a message that says the slot is not active -- but I don't recall exactly what the message says.


In my best recollection these Ka-50 slots used to inform the Client that they were not yet available. Now when I join one at the beginning of the mission I get a message that says I joined a Ka-50 slot but there is no aircraft at the FARP. It sure seems to me that this functionality has changed; I would not have had these late activated slots in the mission if they had not been tested and found to work in a previous version.


Grimes, based upon what you said above about a Client should not be able to take advantage of the Late Activation checkbox, really, if Client, or Player, is selected, then the Late Activation checkbox should be greyed out or removed from the Group attributes panel. This is another issue of features that seem to be available but are not when it comes to prime time play.


Well its never really been a feature of the game. As far as I can remember, people have had to "destroy" aircraft that spawn before intended. Really the only way to naturally prevent a client from spawning is via resource management by denying the aircraft type to an airbase. Exploding the unit used to be the only alternative, now we have Object.destroy and the resource system, both of which are much "cleaner".


WC, I wouldn't be shocked if you had been testing late activation in SP and had been getting the "flight not yet available" message. There are simply so many aspects of the sim that work differently in SP and MP for the host or clients. It might be a little more complex than simply removing the option but I get what you are saying though.


I have found a Theme I like very much, but have a problem with it and tried to fix the theme in an editor.

As can be seen, it is when expanding a mail which becomes very hard to read.

What is the parameter to change this background color?

I would like to help you but I am not certain which background you want to change, I presume you are editing the XML file.

Perhaps it would be easier for you to use the Theme editor that is built into eMC - Menu ->Tools ->Theme Editor


OK, if you have identified the element you wish to change, only you can decide the color you want to use.

There is a color picker that will give color code you want to use here: www.compucall.com

I hope I have understood you correctly.


Who is a difficult client? What does difficult mean? Is it really the client who is difficult? These basic questions need resolution before any discussion can be had about what to do about difficult clients.


I raise this because we have to decide what makes a difficult client. In the first instance, is it the client who refuses to accept your recommendations as regards word choice or how a sentence can be better written? Or how complete a reference is needed? Or whether something is grammatical? Or something else that is really a subjective opinion by you?


Or, in the second instance, is the difficult client the client who hired you to do copyediting but wants you to also do developmental editing as part of the same work for the same fee? Or who wants you to add additional tasks at no charge to the tasks you agreed to perform for the quoted fee? Or who agreed to a delivery and review schedule but now ignores it yet expects you to meet your portion of it or that you will drop everything else you are doing because the client is now ready to work with you?


Or, in the third instance, is the difficult client the client who refuses to pay for your work for whatever reason? Or is it the client who will pay but instead of paying within the agreed time frame, has unilaterally decided to pay over a much longer time frame?


Even with a contract, these types of difficulties arise because clients rarely understand the world of publishing. A written contract can help to alleviate some of these problems but my experience has been that clients tend to ignore the contracts because they think it is not in their interest to follow it. Or, as is too often the case, the client views the editor-client relationship as a personal rather than as a business relationship.


It is not that difficult to reach that point. And sometimes, even if you are not yet at that point, it is better for you to say goodbye to a client rather than to agonize over every interaction you have with the difficult client. From experience, I can tell you that firing the first client is difficult; subsequent clients become increasingly easy to fire.


A complainer may be the BEST customer you have because by complaining the customer is telling you that the (s)he still wants to do business with you otherwise the customer would seek out someone else . . . . plus tell many others not to use your services.


Write an OnChange client script/catalog client script to show/hide variables? What is the challenge you are facing for your issue? Can you share the script and elaorate your scenario on what needs to be achieved?


Catalog client scripts work on the actual catalog item and not on the variable editor as far as I know. The scenario that I have a question about is - User fills a form on portal and submits the form. It creates a request in ServiceNow. Details filled by the user on the portal are captured as part of variables in a variable editor and displayed on the request created in ServiceNow. Now, user needs to modify value in the variable in this variable editor based on which corresponding variables in the editor should be displayed/hidden.


You can do your validations for Variable editor also. As mentioned above a catalog client script should work on variable editor also(Make Sure you have marked the following checkboxes on the catalog client script form as TRUE (Applies on Requested Items & Applies on Catalog Tasks) as shown below. For reference, go through the below scenario:


Apologies, I did not make it clear earlier that I'm using a record producer which creates a record in a custom module. The moment you select a record producer as the catalog item in a new catalog client script, you can see only 'Applies on Catalog Item view' option. Applies on Requested Items & Applies on Catalog Tasks cannot be seen in this case (There is an OOB client script which hides these options if you are using a record producer)


When you are developing an application that addresses a RESTful web service. In this case, it is helpful to investigate the access to the service and the required input data before you start the development. During development, you may also call this web service from outside your application. This may help locate errors when your application results in unexpected output while no logical errors are detected in your code, and you suspect that the bottleneck is the interaction with the web service.


Click Tools HTTP Client Create Request in HTTP Client. If a request file is opened in the editor, this will add a request template to the opened file. Otherwise, this will create a new .http scratch file.
