Weather in CMO

Post by JPFisher55 »

For quite some time, CMANO has included an inactive option for "weather affects on flight operations." The developers told us that in the future this option would be added. Is it active in CMO?

Is there differentiated weather cells in CMO or does weather remain universal across the globe based on single settings?

Universal. That's why we have "weather fronts" as an item on the new poll.

Be nice to has Submarine Probability of Detection impacted by sea state as well.

I was Navy, but Assigned TAD to the 24th MAU Hq in Beirut. By far the finest period of my service!

This is already in, in fact! Increasing the sea state value degrades the surface ducting and drastically reduces surface/shallow-to-surface/shallow detection ranges. Going deeper this effect is diminished.

Thanks is there a graph indicating the degradation?

IMHO, I'm finding air ASW to be too easy for high seas/wind scenarios. This is especially true in two I designed Halloween Horror, 1991 and Merry Christmas 1985. Buoy overwash alone should cause major degradation in the Halloween Horror scenario with near hurricane conditions. Yet I can find the Russian sub every time.

Is this still planned for the future?

It's been my most eagerly awaited feature since 2013....
