OK OK OK! I havn't said alot in the last 6 months (been busy with work : - ( ) but I am very impressed with ALL your work!

S! to you all! Well done! Wow!

Anyway, i keep reading the age old problem of "we can't have ground forces attacking each othjer cus they only shoot at planes". Then it hit me today....about 5 minuets ago whilst staring aimlessly at my cuboard....

Why not set one ground unit as being a plane in OP studio. I.e: we make a flag model, add the property that it is an plane. Then in mission builder give one to each side.

Now both sides would in theory fire at each other? I'm going to try this with just a normal plane to see if it works.....

sorry but maybe I misunderstood you're post, but we have a few ground units that are set as aircraft and can attack each other. Also, groundunits only attack aircraft if you tell them to when making them, but you can tell them to attack buildings, other ground units, ships, just about anything you want

Of course the only problem with this being realistic is that the AI has excellent aim for a/c so I donb't think it will miss much sitting still

it's in the Rhineland missions I think Jag, I know I've seen stock missions where the tanks are firing on a town and enemy units
