Server Information

Blue Flag servers are ran 24/7 and you can find them on the DCS Server browser by searching for "blue flag" and picking the server with the map you wish to play on. Alternatively you can connect by IP as shown below.

Server IPs

Caucasus: 149.202.64.114:10312

Persian Gulf: 54.36.126.186:10310

SRS

SRS (Simple Radio Server) is used by Blue flag as its main method of communication between pilots.

Note: using SRS is not an enforced requirement, but highly encouraged. You can find the latest version of SRS here: https://github.com/ciribob/DCS-SimpleRadioStandalone/releases/latest

Caucasus: srs2.flag.blue:5002

Persian Gulf: srs1.flag.blue:5014

Alternatively, you can open your SRS client and connect to Blue Flag in DCS, the SRS AUTOCONNECT feature will make sure you're connected to the correct server.

Server Rules

Do not teamkill deliberately. You will not be punished for an accidental team kill, however we will exclude pilots that deliberately or continuously kill friendlies. Make sure you properly identify your target before engaging it (including additional means such as SRS) and cease fire immediately if you hit a friendly or get told you're engaging friendlies.

No taxiway/apron take-offs. Don't perform taxiway or apron take-offs, runways are there for a reason. The "benefit" of being airborne 15 seconds faster is not worth risking collision with another, taxiing pilot or causing damage/inconvenience to others.

Streaming

We generally welcome streaming and are happy for people to stream their experience on our servers live for others to enjoy.

In order to avoid issues and provide a fair environment for all players on the server, there's two short rules we've decided to introduce though:

1) Streaming GCI. Should you decide to stream your GCI gameplay (whether that's using the F10 map or any other potential tools in the future), please apply a delay of 10 minutes to your stream in order to avoid abuse of the stream to gather live intel by pilots actively flying on the server. Just to emphasise: this rule does not apply to all streams of pilots flying or likewise, but only to people intending to stream their GCI perspective. Feel free to hop into the GCI slot before your sortie to figure out where friendlies are, but streaming the F10 map for a prolonged time requires a delay of 10 minutes.

2) Streaming only the F10 map. Do not stream only the F10 map/comms without any additional interaction (e.g. to provide a live picture to your squadron or team).
