I've been trying to base my F-18C on CVN68 for the NF4+ Carrier campaign. I looked up in the Knowlege base how to add aircraft for campaigns but that was more about replacing an aircraft with a differnt one. I wanted to add more Navy aircraft to the carrier on the NF4+ Carrier mission and not replace my f-14 in the campaign files every time I wanted to do a campaign in a differnt navy jet I have. I copied and paste the F-14A player unit to create another player unit in the campaign4 data file. I then updated this pasted player unit with the f-18C file name info and sqd info. I then added the unit info in the campaign file with the f-18c sqd info. I then deleted my old saved campign files. My f-18c shows up as a selectable aircraft as part of the US Navy at the campaign start up screen with the correct sqd info but after hitting the accept button the f-18c ends up being based at Spangdahlem AB instead of the Nimitz. I don't understand why it doesn't end up being based on the carrier. Is there anything I need to do to get it to start off on the carrier? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thx. I attached the player unit info below to see if anyone notices that I missed something.
