Supercarrier for mission builders.

Post by Shaggy »

A great video by Redkite, explains how to use templates for the static aircraft on the super carrier. How to make the Supercarrier change the static objects change positions mid mission to make it more realistic. Kudos to Eshark who posted this in our WhatsApp group.

No but you could limit the spawns available, but still aircraft will spawn dynamically based on when they select slots and press fly ingame.

Thats probably the only way you could......good luck making that happen, we can't even delay people from joining a mission early for Christ's sake :lol:

How about starting everyone in hangers ( when aviable ) So F14s in front hanger using elevators 1 n 2 and using cats 1 n 2. the hornets in the rear hanger using elivators 3n 4 and cats 3n 4 . This way it dont matter when we join as there will be a delay of using eveltor etc and it would make ATC alot easier using the separate hangers elevators and cats. :D

Have we even got access to nominated parking on the carrier yet? Nope.

Maybe it would be possible, but what about deck movements without tugs? If there are such possibilities, do Squadrons have separate allocated parking below deck?

Lots of questions to answer when we gain those options, but the6 aren’t available yet.

Thank you. I was about to ask if navy gent's bought it, and if is a must, or not for mission building.
Cheers
