Post by hempy »

I finded sometimes I can't lunch plane attack twice a day, when I attack enemy's carrier in morning, then they all come back to my base carrier for refueling and arming, but the second time attack they stay somewhere, the menu shows "forming up", what does that mean? why they don't lunch the second attack? thanks!!

hempy,

Just so you know that you're not losing it, a/c do indeed get stuck in the "forming up" box. They will remain there for a long, long time, if you don't recall their strike. After you recall them and they've landed, try rearming and launching them singley or in some grouping other than that which got stuck in the FU box (I can hear the chuckles now). Anyway, sometimes that'll get the wheels rolling again.

Yep, that worked for me (for both, stuck a/c and for the chuckles [;)]).
