Spanky the Mad Dog Pilot	posted 05-24- 01:14 PM Spanky here.. Hi guys. I get how to place a sqaud by editing the coordinates but what formation do I use? Or do you have to put each plane in its own squad and place each one indvidualy? IP: Logged
ArgonV Pilot	posted 05-24- 01:19 PM Line Astern is my guess. Then when the planes are sitting on the carrier, they will be behind each other. Just make sure you dont have too many planes in a squad or they will not all fit on the carrier deck and start in the air. IP: Logged
Archy Pilot	posted 05-24- 04:19 PM Yes, line astern is correct. You have no way to adjust the spacing for a single squad, so what I used to do when I was making carrier missions was to interleave squads. I had missions with 10 - 12 planes on deck. Usually need 4 squads to get it looking right with large numbers of ac on the deck: see pearl jpegs at www.mosquitonet.com/~blodgett/ [This message has been edited by Archy (edited 05-24-2000).] IP: Logged
Snickers Pilot	posted 05-24- 05:54 PM Single squads (I had up to 6 on the Akagi, not bad as long as everyone follow take off order ) BTW you can also do this to place aircraft in their individual turnouts instead of lined up at the runway.... ------------------ Snickers =FC= IP: Logged
