AI planes take off in the middle of airfields
« on: June 12, 2024, 03:43:18 AM »

What to do if AI planes take off in the middle of airfields instead near their boundaries.
Move "Runaway Grounds" or "Airdrome Points RUNAWAY", and where to move ?
Sorry, I forget the true way.

When I was looking at spawning point in my few map modifications I read that planes spawn 1000 meters from the runway icon (headling towards icon) so I set them accordingly....maybe your runway is longer....

Thank you , so remembered I.
But when creating the airfield on Voronezh  map (with Cannons BlankFieldPlates),drawing same runways as in Donbass map at airfield having coordinates x=221 , y=236, I met trloubles described above.
When the mentiioned Donbass airfield was simply copied into Voronezh map, including small BlankPlates there involved, no troubles were observed, in spite of Runway ground markings being there at larger distance.

As at the coordinates of your post I find no airfield I think that you are writing about new airfields....

The only different things I can think could be not flat ground or objects placed too near the spawning....

The AF is on the map of Donbass summer by Oknevas, at Il2 4.122 SAS530,¨see here:



It can be seen also in mapbuilder:

I'll take a look asap in my map building laptop....anyway IIRC the spawn could be correct , if for example , you set an aircraft to take off in 221.4/236.4 placing first waypoint towards north it should spawn 1000 meters south of takeoff point about at 221.4/235.4....
