Air Group Loading

[Lawyerboy]

Okay, Ive read the Wiki, hints, manuals etc and I am still having problems getting airgroups loaded onto AKs after changing their HQ. Usually the units avl for loading screen comes up nada. Specifically Im playing US side on CHS mod. Most of the problems originate at Pearl or the West Coast. Im aware that the USAFFE forces are "hard wired" What are the rules here, if any? HEEEELP!![&:]

Let's see.  You mentioned changing the HQ of the airgroup.  Make sure it's not any of the "restricted" HQ's.  My next thought is what type of ship are you trying to load the airgroup onto?  I don't believe AP's can load planes, only AK's.  A maximum of 1 airgroup can be loaded onto a single AK, even if it only takes up a fraction of the capacity, just like ground units.  Check the top of the "Units available for loading" screen to make sure some types of units/groups are not filtered out of the display.  This one still gets me from time to time on the regular airgroups list screen.  [:D]

ecifically Im playing US side on CHS mod. Most of the problems origina

Don't forget that you cant load West Coast forces onto ships.

Well, thanks for both replies so far. Im loading [or should I say trying] onto AKs. My lastest issue involves an airgroup at San Francisco set up for SE Asia. I changed the HQ to ANZAC and it was a no go when I switched to the units available for loading screen. Are there other restricted units other than USAFFE and West Coast HQs? Is there a way to crack a save file and change this???? Thanks again to both of you [8|]

I think ANZAC is restricted as well.  Switch it to SWPac, SouthPac or CentPac and you'll be just fine.

The Allied Restricted Commands are (depending on Mod as to whether they exist)
USAFFE, ABDA, India, West Coast, ANZAC, Austalia, New Zealand, Canada
No loading onto ships if you use these

UNRestricted Commands are
CENTPAC, SOPAC, SWPAC, NOPAC, SEAC

Have I missed any?

They do vary a bit from mod to mod, so read up on the current mod you are playing. In CHS, Australia Command is actually UN-restricted. [:D]
