How to Use

1. Configure your unit settings above.
2. Click the Command Box to copy the generated string.
3. In DCS, open the F10 Map, create a Marker at the desired location, and paste the command as the label.
4. The engine will detect the marker, spawn the unit/group, and then automatically delete the marker.

Template vs Individual

Template (temp): Spawns a pre-defined tactical group (e.g., a SAM battery) defined in dbspawn.json.
Individual (type): Spawns a single unit or a custom-sized group of the same unit type.

Speed (spd) Logic

The spd tag is exclusive to Individual spawns. For aircraft/helos, this sets initial air speed. For ground units, they will move toward the nearest waypoint at this speed.

Altitude & Heading

Alt: Set 0 for Ground/Sea units. For Aircraft, value is in feet (MSL).
Hdg: Sets the compass heading (0-359). If set to 0, the script defaults to North.

Coalition Handling

Default is RED (CJTF). Selecting BLUE adds country=CJTF_BLUE to ensure units are spawned on the correct side in the engine.

Advanced Air & JTAC Options

Callsign: Override the default name (e.g., Texaco11 or Overlord11).
Freq: Set the radio frequency in MHz (e.g., 251). Automatically applied to aircraft and JTAC.
TACAN: Set the TACAN channel and band (e.g., 11X). Only available for Tankers and AWACS.
Laser: Set the JTAC laser designation code (e.g., 1688).
