Static planes on deck when landing
« on: February 19, 2018, 10:19:54 AM »
Is it possible to have two representations of the same carrier. The ones we have now for launching, and a new set with static planes with folded wings on deck to be used for landing only. We could take off from carriers we have in game now and instead of returning to that carrier in mission builder we would add a 2nd carrier with the same name with static planes on deck thus making landings more immersive with no go around options because of parked aircraft on deck up front. And example would be the USSLexingtonCV2 we have in game now  and a new USSLexingtonCV2L used for landing only. We could also use the new carriers with airstart missions.

This is what happens when you place a stationary plane on the deck.
Until there is a Mod or some thing changes it just does not work. Check Pic.

I've searched but I do seem to remember Ranwers made a carrier crew mod that had two F4U's on deck along with tractors and crew but I cant find any pics of the planes on deck.

It seems to me you used to be able to place planes on deck with 1 waypoint, 0 fuel, 0 ammo. The planes would attempt to start their engines and then just die and remain there on deck. But that was a long time ago and maybe I’m just confused.

Thats nice but what about when you try to land? Planes should on the froward deck when recovering aircraft.
