Personally, I made extensive use of the Long-Range Strategic Strike Group and a lot of tankers to clear the air over the Spratly Islands by Day 1 and Woody Island by Day 2. I also find your pro-active approach to taking out submarines to be rather interesting.

Eboreg

Interesting stuff. I do wonder how Canberra is going to deal with all the submarines you sent her through.

I have done this one before and I found that attriting the initial fighting sorties by baiting them away with one fighter and tailing them with an entire four or three-plane flight at low altitude with radars off to hit them in the ass with heaters to be a great strategy for preparing for the strike ...

You do realize that glide bombs can be pretty effective against older SAMs, right?

Way I did it, I armed all of my helicopters for ASW Patrol with the Quick Turnarounds on at the very beginning and micromanaged them to go home immediately once they ran out of sonobuoys. I was able to get two of the Argentine submarines that way.

Eboreg

If I may make a request: giving an option to alter sonobuoy spacing on ASW Patrol missions. One big problem with ASW Patrol missions is that sometimes, the default spacing doesn't really take into account the capabilities of the sonobuoys in question. I would love to be able to tighten up the ...

Just an update: I recently installed the beta version on Steam and noticed that the Flaming Dragon scenario still has this problem with the Tejas's at Srinagar and Naliya.

You shouldn't be using the beta update anymore.

And unless you're looking at something else or I missed something, the ...

Alright, I'll say it where it needs to be said. There is a pretty significant issue with the Praying Mantis scenario in that any aggression against the Iranians will cause the Soviets to declare the US hostile.This is most definitely not historical in any way and while I would ask to see this fixed ...

I haven't been very fond of this scenario but I recently decided to check it out after hearing that it got updated. The SITREP is that a Soviet Task Force centered around the Aviation Cruiser Volgograd has somehow ended up in the Barents Sea smack dab in the middle of June, 1944. The commanding ...

Well... the entire purpose of this scenario is to explore whether or not the Ukrainians could actually see enough of the Moskva's poor state of functionality to expect this outcome. Turns out they didn't need to. The Moskva could have easily been knocked out of action for a while even without any of ...

Alright, I recently decided that I had gotten enough information to move on and after a bit of a test run, I ran into a bit of a problem:

Turns out, the Moskva didn't need to be poorly maintained to make the shot worth it.

Eboreg

Yeah... sometimes there is no shame in save-scumming in this game.

It set the time to Midnight, January 1st of Year 1

Alright, I'll see what kind of feedback my altered version gets then put it in the Tech Support thread.

That... sounds like it would break if I put it on another computer.

Code: Select all

local newTime = os.date('%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S', ScenEdit_CurrentTime() + (5*60))
local trigger = ScenEdit_SetTrigger({description='Check For Stand Down', Time=newTime })

Tried to run that code and this is what I got

Code: Select all

ScenEdit_SetTrigger 0 : ,Error in Trigger.Time!
