Mission Editor : asset selection

[YaSchi]

When assigning assets (i.e. helicopters) to a mission, it would be useful to be able to see to which group they belong. For example, if two groups have the same type of helicopters you could end up assigning the wrong ones (from group B) to the ASW mission you're setting up in front of group A, maybe hundreds of miles away.

Groups show only the ships, not the helicopters assigned to those ships.

You can open the group list and then check for every helicopter on which ship it's based but that is cumbersome.

Suggestion : either show the group in addition to the ship for each helicopter or show it in the group like the ships (or both, or an option to toggle between these).

PS. why not allow to filter the assets according to their capabilities and the selected mission ? No use assigning a fighter (maybe as escort, though) or a land radar to an ASW mission.

Agree, this is a real hassle when creating ASW patrols

Thanks Guys,

Have logged this as a quest.

If you select the specific aircraft and just press the ready aircraft button it does tell you where its hosted at the top. Not perfect but a couple click fix for now.
