************************************************************************* ***** LHA Mod For Strike Fighters NA ***** *************************************************************************   This is a mod to make the stock LHA from SF North Atlantic usable as an aircraft carrier.   You must have SF North Atlantic for this to do anything for you.   ************************************************************************* ***** Installation ***** *************************************************************************   Drop the contents of the "LHA" folder into the top level of your mod folder.   If you choose to, drop the contents of "Optional_Files" into the top level of your mod folder as well. Details below...   ************************************************************************* ***** Notes ***** *************************************************************************   For single missions and parked aircraft to work properly:   - A terrain with limited nations needs to have "USMC" as a FriendlyNation in it's nations file. A modified ICELANDNA_NATIONS.INI is included   - If you're using Battle Groups in user-made missions, make sure the group's nation is set to "USMC"   - For parked aircraft to show up, they must be "USMC" and have "CarrierBased=TRUE" and "CarrierParkSpan=2.00" in their _data.ini. A modified version of AV-8A_DATA.INI for Wrench's AV-8A is included.   - The first catapult has no effect, and requires you to use thrust vectoring to take off. This also means your flight as to be limited to a max of 4, or the 5th aircraft will crash on takeoff.   - AI aircraft don't use thrust vectoring to land, and must land with a fake arrestor hook to come aboard. One is included in the modified AV-8A_DATA.INI.   - This was tested with Wrench's AV-8A, and the _data.ini included   http://combatace.com/files/file/11938-av-8a-harrier-for-sf2/   ************************************************************************* ***** Bugs ***** *************************************************************************   Non-STOVL, USMC aircraft, sometimes have the LHA defined as their home base, in single missions. Setting "CarrierBaseSize=SMALL" for the LHA and "MinBaseSize=MEDIUM" for the aircraft, does not prevent this. Maybe this is something TK will fix for us.
