Redddevil911 Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 Has a MOD been done for tandem take offs? If so could some one tell me were to find it. Thanks!
comrpnt Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 Hi Reddevil911, not so much a mod as a way of defining AI aircraft in relation to each other or in relation to your own aircraft. For example, consider the following extract from a recent mission I'm working on. It shows two F-100Ds on final approach to Phu Cat for a pairs landing, and also a couple of F-4Cs on a pairs takeoff from Da Nang. (This is all hand-crafted as I find it easier to define exactly what I want using a text editor, rather than use one of the mission editor utilities for SFP1 etc.) .......................................................
