4 pointsQuick update. 511 tiles..At max limit of game engine. Targets are 35,000+. Thanks Gerwin for the adjusted tool. Have reworked some tiles. Trying to get this out on the streets soon. Working to package it all. First release will be a BETA as I need the smart folks to pull this thing apart. No campaign(s) built. I need to build some custom missions for the project. Wrench's Island after the new landscapers showed up.

2 pointsHello The term of "mixed formation" used by the French in wwI is not the notion of mixed formation as we (or at least I) usually use it. Most of the time, a "mixed formation" of bombers is a formation of bombers of different types flying in respective fixed positions in order to benefit from mutual protection. This was not exactly the case, actually, a better word would be "close escort" as the R11 were moving around the Breguet formation so as to position between the ennemy fighters and the bomber they protected. In FE2 words, an "escort mission" would be good to descibe how they behaved. This is clearly outdated, as more archives where made available that improve the view we have of the R11 career : For instance, the mission described there : Was the only publicly available account of a R11 mission for years. Now, lot of reports are available for periods from May 1918 to the end of the war outlining that when escorted by R11, bombers suffered less casualties and were more accurate in bombing. Still, the efficiency of the R11 is a valid question, but the above mission is absolutly not representative of the R11 career. It would be a little as if we judged the TBM Avenger based only its performances at Midway ! There are also accounts of Caudron R11 missions here : (available there : http://www.asoublies1418.fr/index.php/cahier-des-as-oublies/la-guerre-du-ciel-1914-1918) : This collection is basically a recollection of various french army reports, archives and personnal diairies On 6th of October, a first mission of 1 recon + 3 protection R11 was met by Fokker D7 (8 according to french archives) : One Caudron was damaged, another was shot down, the mission was a partial success, but a second mission the same day (escorted with Spad this time) was a success In Icare N° 213 : Journal de Jules Abel [1] 1916-1918 : pilote de reconnaissance, Jules Abel flies a R11 as artillery spotter for quite a short time as "gotha" bombed the airfield and put out of action most of the unit's Caudrons In Fana 535, they were used as "picket" patrols (translation for "guet", the plane had to give a warning when some enemy planes crossed the line), in groups of 2 or 3.

1 pointIn cooperation with VonS and Quack74, I'm developing some new WW1 aircraft. I've begun mapping the Junkers J.I and will pass it on to Quack for textures, then VonS for FM.

1 pointThe good news is the random failures aren't really random at all. Work is being performed that may impact the site with short periods of non-responsive behavior and errors. As changes to the hardware and software occur reboots and restarts will happen. We are aware of these conditions and hope to provide the most minimal amount of impact possible. Thank you.

1 pointGreat progress Geezer - always nice to see new models arriving for FE2! For my source for mixed formation Breguets and Caudrons, see p. 255 of René Martel's book 'French Strategic and Tactical Bombardment Forces of WW1.' Sources aside, as mentioned earlier by Quack, mixed formation is currently only possible in single missions in FE2 - not in campaign mode - but some tinkering with the ini files might do the trick. According to Martel, mixed formations were present from about Feb/March of 1918 for Breguet 14 and fast Caudron (R11) types. (Whether or not this was real "mixed formation" I wouldn't know....) Same top speed on both near sea level by the way - around 190kph. More info. on Caudron R.11 types at The Aerodrome: http://www.theaerodrome.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40306 Happy flying, Von S

1 pointI have a minimal CO2 footprint. The household produces zero garbage to landfills recyclable materials only. We run on solar panels which augments our power consumption from utilities. Last month during our hot season with air conditioning my electric bill was $13 and most of that was the connection surcharge and taxes. Our cars are electric and are charged from the solar panels. I worked on two teams, one each year of the Wallow and Rodeo-Chediski Fires. As volunteers we replanted and seeded roughly 800,000 acres, of course I was only 1 of many many people but I did my part. I do act and I try help others do the same.
