Following the swarm sim statement found in the Copter docs -
sim_vehicle.py -v Copter --map --console --count 5 --auto-sysid --location CMAC --auto-offset-line 90,10
There is an error -
no such option: --auto-sysid
Perhaps you want --sim_vehicle_sh_compatible (-C)?
Are the docs outdated?
Never tried those parameters, I just use 5 different cmd prompts and change the -I param, so the first is sim_vehicle.py -v Copter -I 1 and the second “sim_vehicle.py -v Copter -I 2” and so on then I use the swarm module of mission planner to put them where I want.
Probably a better way to do this but it works 
What version are you using ? it is working fine on master branch, and on copter >= 4.2.0
It was an older version. It works fine now on 4.3.6.
Thx
