Re: DCS 2.5 Update News
DCS 2.5.6.59398 Open Beta
A large update with some lovely goodies...
Added support of new DCS NS 430 Navigation System modules for SA-342 Gazelle
Introduced multi-crew for DCS UH-1H Huey.
Added the ability to play with multi-crew for the UH-1H. Up to four crew stations are available for cooperative play: pilot, co-pilot, left gunner and right gunner (if they are added in missions). Added multi-crew missions for the UH-1H helicopter.
Known Issues during playing with multi-crew:
Possible desynchronization of the state (visualization) of the helicopter in case of damage and when requesting ground power before engine start.
When leaving the crewstation of the left (right) gunner into the spectators and back, the gunner's body-model may disappear.
There may be problems in the cockpit with controls that have axis settings commands (knobs for adjusting the volume, setting the altitude, etc.), if the controls is intended for another crewstation.
There is no visualization of the cargo mark on the cargo indicator (cargo position display).

Multicrew WIP continuation:
Fixed idle cutoff.
Correct synchronization of landing gear handle and idle cutoff, disregarding local restrictions (like throttle position for idle cutoff).
Fixed synchronization of “fuel pump”, “fuel valve” and “fus qty” korry buttons.
Fixed synchronization of “VHF”, “UHF”, “NAV” and “VOR/TAC” korry buttons.
Fixed synchronization of GPU power control korry button.
Now the forward seat canopy is correctly initialized, when its position is different from the default position for this type of start - hot/cold/air.
Fixed GPU state initialization, when the rear cockpit is entered after the GPU was started.
Fixed flickering of the GPU external 3D model at the rear seat, if the GPU was enabled before joining the rear seat.
Added synchronization of Master Caution and Master Warning lights reset.
Hydraulic and oil pressure warning lights are now correctly synchronized, when the other seat is joined with a non-standard init conditions (like, for example, engine off).
Master failure/caution warning lights status is now correctly initialized when joining the other seat.
Battery voltage and status is now correctly synchronized between seats.
Fixed Master Caution light status synchronization when the cockpit is entered with some specific cautions being active.
The throttle will not be anymore at idle cutoff in the rear cockpit, when entering the rear seat after the engine has been stopped from the front seat, without setting the throttle to idle cutoff (for example using the fuel cutoff korry button).
Fixed ADI/DG synchronization when entering the rear seat after the engine has been stopped at ramp hot start.
Fixed initial state of the stand-by attitude indicator in the rear seat, if it was entered after the engine had been stopped at ramp hot start.
Fixed inoperative rate-of-turn indicator when the aircraft is controlled from the other seat.
Trim tone sounds now on both cockpits.
Despite the stick/throttle control being available in multiplayer at one seat only at one time, it is now possible to trim the aircraft from another seat. Note that trim signals will be summed algebraically from two seats, except roll trim in which the “left” signal has priority. Emergency trim is operative now as well in multicrew from both seats.
Implemented Combined Controls mode: it sends the algebraic sum of flight controls positions from both seats to the Flight Model, with a limit of full travel. The way that front and rear throttle synchronization works is that the last throttle which was moved for more than 10% of full range will take control.
Added new command to activate (toggle) Combined Controls mode.
Controls Indicator has got additional symbols displayed when the Combined Controls mode is enabled. This will help to see what is going on with flight controls on both cockpits.
Controls Indicator has got a “Priority Seat” indication (“F” or “R” letters).
All circuit breakers are correctly synchronized now.
Now wheel brakes always work for both seats in multicrew.
Altimeter indication is now affected by atmospheric temperature (there’s still an initialization issue that we are working on).
Added get_current_seat() function for lua export. It should be called by means of GetDevice(0):get_current_seat()
