Game has intergrated my own A-4N into its stock campaigns! How?

[+dtmdragon 2,704]

I have been recently modding a copy of the stock A-4H Ahit into an A-4N and to my surprise the game seems to have integrated my A-4N into the stock Israeli campaigns!!??? In the Yom Kippur war my ‘A-4N_Ahit’ is avalible instead of the A-4H_Ahit in some but not all A-4H squadrons. So is my ‘A-4_Ahit_78’ in the 1982 Lebanon War. How has this happened???????

Here is a copy of the UNMODIFIED campaign data I have unpacked to have a look:

Looks like TK has just put in an A-4N_Ahit type - he does this with a lot of campaigns you will notice. He puts the correct jet the squadron used - then an alternate if it cant be included with the stock game.

 

An example from my SF2I campaign3_data.ini

 

[AirUnit003]

AircraftType=A-4N_Ahit_78

AlternateType=A-4H_Ahit_73

Squadron=102IDF

ForceID=1

Nation=ISRAEL

DefaultTexture=IDFCamo1

BaseArea=Ramon Airbase

BaseMoveChance=0

I thought that might be the case but was unsure as its a bit of a coincidence I named mine exactly the same (eg A-4N_78_Ahit) allowing it to work.

 

Cheers.
