I can do that, but getting the not destroyed actor on new mission, is that a bug or mission design error?

I think it is neither a bug nor error. This is the concept of CloD online. There is no such thing as mission as it was in original IL-2, e.g. you can not just unload a mission. A mission in CloD is just new mission objectives like in real life. In real life when mission is over actors do not just disappear if they are still alive. When you load a new mission you are actually just adding new objectives to your current mission. And this is the beauty of CloD as it gets closer to real life simulation.

I think to clear a server from all the actors you have to run a script that specifically does this (destroys actors) or restart server.

So in effect the number of AI increases with each mission load?

Okay, I know nothing about the mission side of things, I am using Doghouses 1.6 version and that script is not in his cs file that I can see.

It should increase if it is not destroyed by any script as far as I understand. I may be wrong of cause. We just started testing my mission on Repka server. Sometimes many AI just die at the same time after mission load.

When you have actors from previous mission do they behave normally or die in the beginning of new mission? Developers asked us to provide a log of such deaths and a track as logs are not enough. If you have the same problem please provide a log with a track I'll post it for devs at sukhoi.ru.

I had that in the early weeks but not now, now it just states actor not destroyed. Are the Devs only paying attention at sukhoi.ru and not here?
