Can't tell if I actually did something useful for once or I'm getting meme'd

Just kidding. You actually did something useful, your hint was very good.

Woooooooooow, I'm going to need to save that and use that one later on someone else to make myself feel better about it.

Let's be honest, you're not a real mission builder unless you spent 27 straight hours trying to find Object #238,236,423,199.

27 hours is for a rookie... 2270 hours, tons of frustration and dozens of missions redone because of the wrong object in the wrong place - make a real mission builder. 

[Dimlee]

You know, there's a tool for almost everything in IL2 - in this case the solution to the problem is called 'StaticIniImages.exe'.

Helpful tool but as I remember, the object numbers do not match those in UP 3.4. Yet they are close, so it's better than nothing.

I mean it's kind combined, once I get to winter stuff I just pgup/pgdn until i'm out of it same with the "dead" objects.
Other than that I just scroll through 3-4 times every object every time I make a mission.  UP doesn't have as much as BAT
and I do the same thing with BAT and that has like 6000 more objects, of course probably 2000 of those I skip since they are
Winter or Dead or Raised.

What is the  purpose of the Ki-48-II KAI Lily , 1944 , please ?
It has a long rod at the nose , but it is not a weapon because nothing happens when trying to open fire .

This is the kamikaze version which I assume is an explosion trigger...

It's a kamikaze....the rod is the fuse extender....

My nephew called something like this many years ago:

melee spike (Nahkampfstachel)

The reason why backporting the 4.14+ joystick code (and with it, the mouse and keyboard one, which went largely unnoticed) to Ultrapack was a rather easy task is the fact that in Ultrapack we have a "single point of truth" from a sourcecode perspective.
We hold all the Java sources in one single spot, one repository, for everyone to see/use/modify in a controlled centralized manner.
No such thing like sudden incompatibilities when something new gets dropped in, because everyting you find in Ultrapack is compiled from the same source stack.

Thanks Storebror for the answer. Now when I go back to UP3.4 and see the loading page "IL2 4.60M", I think I can understand now. This is a SAS special "base" architecture. It's nice to see such superb technology!

Wonder if the new Morane cockpits will be added

That Lily is a Twin Engine Kamikaze Attack Bombers with 800kg of Explosives. Yes, It is a Special Attack Unit.
