I FIND THE CULPRIT!!!
You have added the beta SAS_Engine_2.7_patch_western mod that change :
I changed Maneuver.class and Gear.class.
Now carriers' catapults work as powerful to heavy jets at all Jets airctafts not only F9F panther.
Full-load F-80N can take-off easily from carriers.
If I will be given a time (about 10 days?),
I want to make catapult codes in Gear.class more inteligent.
In today's Gear.class , very similar catapult codes appear twice (1st catapult and 2nd catapult).
I think that they will be merge to ONE using Array and for() loop.
And about this Benitomuso also wrote:
Thanks for the update Western. I will test it.
But: changing the code you suggest doesn't change the stock code structurein that section? The big problem with this, even when there are tens of classes of the game that could be programmed diferently and more efficiently, when a new version of the game appears, everything has to be reprogrammed over the changed code.
Something as the Gear.class, for each of us that would program it from scratch, for sure will be ending in a different structure, conception and operational logic. So, perhaps the less subjective improvements the more standardized code we have.
Just my opiniĆ³n.
So in conclusion:
1) You haven't a vanilla Engine mod but a not common and modified one;
2) This update isn't neither fully merged in Anto original one nor supported from Anto or Western in a full merged beta test version.
3) With this mod included my planes can't take off from older Essex class carriers as can do before;
I specify that I'm not writing against Western or Vega because their development work is really useful and invaluable , I'm only asking to specify the version of the various mod you have....and keep trace of their modification!
Create for a mod in devlopment and beta test dedicated multiple folder with specific file inside and with a specific loading order is a useful way to keep a visual trace of all what your mods folder allow to run in your IL2 version!
BTW my test configuration (and obviously loading order) is:
0_0_0_SAS_Engine_Mod v2.7 Western patch x 20131109
0_0_0_SAS_Engine_Mod v2.7_20131109
0_0_0_SAS_JET WAR 1956_Core_v133 beta x 4122 v20131110
9_J_5_F-4 B-D-E-J Phantom II v1.40 beta by Vega
