Interesting, I just tried a few anti-ships in Desert and Anatolia, I do get ships as primary targets. (though my target is always the MV Nordic Ferry, without any special SF2NA edits to it)

another question, what's the size of the map and location coordinates for those two bases? Are they in the outer %10 of the map?

I remember something like, the first target areas for both enemy and friendly, shouldn't contain airbases. Insert some other areas there and see if that fixes it Ant.

@steelflanker, it messes the weapon/missle views in the Action Cam right? Perhaps you can create a new view and not touch the default weaponview, just like I did for the alt+8, "view all weps" Edit: doesn't having CycleNextControl and Prev assigned to the same key cause a problem...? @peter, I think Skatezilla had a great post about multiple monitors and FOV, either in Thirdwire or simhq boards.

More controls are in AIRCRAFTAIDATA.INI Though you might consider altering it per aircraft. Example from stock TU-16_DATA.INI: [LevelBombAI] ReleaseAlt=6096.0 ReleaseCount=24 ReleaseInterval=0.1

Thanks. I've been researching and found pretty good info on h1,h2 and rest of the airfields from Iraq's super-base project. Acig.org has a good article. The names h1, k1 etc are taken from closeby oil pump stations.. It would be nice to get some roads & rivers along with some of these missing target areas.

Fubar, I just tried this. Disabled the start times for RAF aircraft on Keflavik, I can see these squadrons in the Campaign map but in the game no parked aircraft is visible. So it looks like, in Single Missions we get parked aircraft, campaigns we don't. That's too bad because hitting the enemy airfield and their aircraft reduced their strength..

I've been reading the Strike Eagle 'Flying the F-15E in the Gulf War' by William Smallwood. The first strikes of some of the F-15E's are to Scud Sites in Al-Qaim close to the Syrian Border, and a few clicks south of here to Scuds near H2 air field. So I'm designing a few single missions around these. Searching the DS Map, H2 is not included (neither is H3). Now my Gulf War knowledge is not that good, so were these airfields used for air operations by Iraq, or only utilized for various facilities/missiles sites? There is an Al Muhammad Airbase nearby defined in the Map, but I can't find any concrete info about it on the 'Net.. Suspect a naming confusion on my side.. It's certainly understandable for every single target area not be included in the Mod, I just want to hear designers' ideas before I go in and add bunch of stuff for my install. Thanks in advance. Here's a good map. The Western Scud sector is in my current interest.

Awesome, thank you!

Thanks HomeFries, enjoying this very much .

Great work mate, looks great

Thanks Dave, nice work

Similar thing happens when your aircraft is heavily damaged but it can still fly, either on takeoff or in an engagement. Wingmen vocally responds to commands but does not follow them just goes on his waypoints.. Though this is be design IMHO.

Best way we have is to turn on DEBUG in HUDDATA.INI Then in the game, note down coordinates.

Do you have any carrier_based=true italian aircraft in your install ? I'm assuming you have the carrier set as Italian.

Installing right away

I don't think the game uses the PATROL_BOAT types, yet. The anti-ship mission only spawns CARGO_SHIP. And I don't get any randomness with them either, it's always the first alphabetically named CARGO_SHIP type folder. From old discussions, 4 of these type could exist in an install and the game would randomize but I don't get that anymore. But this is another discussion.. For SF2NA, perhaps another way to use the Subs would be inserting them as TRANSPORT or other Warship type so they would be spawned in naval missions. But then we don't have control over that naval group formation, in Single Missions and the subs location could be obvious. Of course in campaigns this would be a viable technique..

Thank you Eric. Edit: Good call on the Carrier Deck, CollisionMesh=CVN71/CVN_Flight_Deck.lod. I've been updating all my 3rd party carriers with the respective folder inserted in there.

Seen the same thing with AI flying various stock/mod aircraft. Haven't pinned down the cause for it yet..

Nice! and AI does it too

It only launches when I fly right over it, below around 5000. Dunno why... About my earlier inquiry about the Search Radars not coming up on RWR. I had test it with the stock A-7E(74), the RWRMinFreq=2.0 of the aircraft was above the RadarSearchFreq=1.5 of the ship.. FYI..

Thanks for that link Crusader, very informative documentary.
