So I have ran into this same issue on more than one mission, frustrating as all hell to say the least. Few EASY fixes are… land and the further you are from the patient the longer the wait for them to walk to you (maybe a 500m radius to land and only after spotting them with a fly over as acknowledgment … or vice versa for your medic to get to them and back… AND OR let me use the hoist I am certified for…
Has this been addressed yet with a fix? This is the reason I moved from 2020 to 2024. DCS has great SAR scripting… can we not follow that, it’s not even developed in DCS is from users scripting.
