Thanks I stand corrected did not know Japanese changed measurements in 1917,you learn something new everyday. Can't wait for game to be released [:)]

How hard it will be to change shinano from 48 planes capacity of "repair and landing base for others CVs" to full CV with 125 planes (true full capacity IIRC) ? And it will be posible to edit maximum number of sorties from CV ? 

In witp it is just changing a number for both. Note that i don't know if it is possible to put a cent.(3 fields) number in aircraft number. I only saw dozen.(2 fields)

And I have another question - for airplanes - every bomb...etc have load value, what happend if I enter lower total value for all weapons instaled, and in simmiliar manner - bigger totall value ?

No problem with either at all. And having a carrier with 100+ aircraft is also perfectly possible.

I don't understand the question[&:][&:][&:]

I think....What if aicraft X has bomb load of 8000 lbs but only has 4x500 lb bombs (lower total) or 16x1000 lb bombs (bigger total)?

The former will work, the latter won't. If he's asking whether the system will "fill up" to maximum load capacity by itself, the answer is no.

What does "Respawn" in the scenario screen do?

Does the editor allow the player define what is respawned (PT, MTB VS. CV's)?

Sorry, no. I know because I asked the same before.

Ok. Editor looks great. Will I be able to change this line with the editor:

xxxx unloading over beach at xyz location ...
to
xxxx unloading on to beach at xyz location ...

That line has bugged me all these years.
If not I'll live with it. I suppose[:(].

Thanks.

Sorry, no. That's an internal message and is not exposed in the editor. I don't believe it has been changed.

Gee, I *like* the phrase "unloading over the beach."

And you don't unload onto a beach, because you don't want whatever you're unloading to STAY THERE. It passes over the beach, hence the term is 100% correct.

But if you unload "over" the beach - then maybe that begs the question "just exactly how far up in the air - over the beach - are you unloading" ??? [:D][:D][:D]

(trying to guess why the phrase would be disliked...)

Think that's an unguessable...

Good Lord, "unguessable" is an actual word...

Hovercraft! [:D]

Ding ding ding!!! Correct Mr. Jwilkerson. Brings to mind visions of soldiers rapelling down from helicoptors or down from the huge hovering attack firestation. (Firemen use poles still?). Yeah Term, I suppose you should move "over the beach" to safer ground after you've landed and unloaded on the beach. Moot point however, since Don has said it is hardcoded. I said I will live with it. Have since UV. [:D]

Hmmmm, I suppose you could unload over a beach if you dump everything out the backend of a C-130 as it flys over the beach...[8|] yeah that fixes it.

Everyone think Gold!!!

But you don't need to unload on the beach depending upon the type of vehicle you are using. You might just drive inland to the designated spot and unload there.

And the starting point for this loaded up vehicle would be? On the Beach.

Where it was delivered (as cargo) to the beach by some LCM.
