  1. At present I know of no way do carrier tours with SF2NA-style naval campaigns. Carrier groups have a single start date, a single retire date, and that's it. We need carrier groups with multiple start dates and retire dates.The alternative is a dozen of so carriers all active at the same time, all churning up the Gulf of Tonkin for the duration of Rolling Thunder. The result looks ridiculous. There are also potential performance problems on some users' machines.

     

    Would this work?

    For example create 3 different CVS-11 Intrepid NavalUnits covering the 3 tours on different dates.

    Then set the squadrons to respective naval units depending on start dates.

    Does the NavalUnit disappear when retirement comes?


  2. On the other hand, something like a radar horizon (?) seems to be simulated.

    When attacking a carrier group in open water, the lower I fly the later I will be detected (RWR signature verifies this). The curvature of the earth?...

    The radar horizon height depends on my altitude..

     

    Was it like this in previous games? Need to double check it.


  3. These two ships, a Kresta (U in RWR) and a Type 053 (FF) can paint me on radar even behind two mountain ridges.

    They can lock me up and keep firing at me even after running a while behind this obstacle. Also the ZSU is on my RWR, to the Right, which is actually on the airfield to the right, couple more ridges away, at sea

    level. Sure the missiles are not hitting me but it looks like there could be problem with terrain masking the radar signals?

     

    SF2NA, Jul2012, all settings including terrain detail on highest.
