Hello guys, I have had an issue with the Baron for some time in regard to making a stationary plane for it, the issue was found
and a new slot made as well as some minor changes.



WIP thread:

https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,70838.0.html

Note: You only need this mod if you want to use a stationary plane, if you are happy with what you already have then you do not need this.

First of all this will have to replace your current mod, it requires a different air.ini entry as the issue found for the Stationary
not showing came from a few naming issues of the folders, essentially, from what I see, it uses what amounts to two slots as
such in that we seem to have much of what is in one class duplicated and it had one name in the java and one of the plane
folders that was different to the actual class name, whether this was intentional to allow the second seat I know not, maybe
one of the java guys can enlighten me.

So, first off deativate/remove previous mod and air entries, I made a stationary for this very early in its life but that
does not work, however, it was added to my full stationary mod at the time so if you have that and the entries are active
then delete them as well, all new additions please.

The skin folder is okay it uses original name.

Stationary plane:




Please see readme files in the download for a list of credits and changes.


New entries:

Add to air.ini:

Baron             air.Baron_58 1                           NOINFO  usa01 SUMMER



Note:  If you do not have a section for the self staionary aircraft you will need to create one using the headers shown below after your stock static entries.

Follow the path:  STD/com/maddox/il2/objects/ Stationary.ini and Technics.ini.



If you wish to use the Self Stationary Plane add the folder in the download that begins with the title 'PS_Baron_58_SSP' to your mod folder and add the following lines:   


Add to Stationary.ini:


[Self_StationaryPlanes]

Baron_58             vehicles.planes.Baron_58Static$Baron_58   2



Add to Technics.ini:


//===================================================================
//
// Self Stationary planes
//
//===================================================================


[Baron_58]
Description    Baron_58
Icon           Plane
Class          air.Baron_58
PanzerBodyFront      0.016
Explode              WagonMetal



Your previous skin folder should work with this even though the air entry was altered as the bit used for the skin folder is as as before.


Take care and be safe.


Wishing you all the very best, Pete and Alex, the NOT so dynamic duo.

Voting for including this as a standard stationary in BAT.  Nicely done.

Same opinion, UberDemon.

Thank you, Pete and Alex ,

Hello guys, glad you are happy with the changes.

At least here in this section things are more visible to a casual browser than if left in WIP and so you can take your pick from what is already available or use this instead.

Take care and be safe.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.
