Do you plan to update it soon?
I'm ready for restarting

Will try but no promises, hadn't planned on one until the end of the month. RL is getting in the way again, and I've got some writing to do [;)]

If I do a quick update it won't have some of the larger features I want to include like runway repair etc.

I would like to eliminate this message within the editor:

"[WP] Shotgun weapon state has been set to Beyond Visual Range (BVR) exhaustion, however aircraft 892nd IAP #35 (Su-15TM Flagon E/F) is only armed with Within Visual Range (WVR) weapons. The aircraft will therefore return to base immediately. Change the Shotgun weapon state to Guns or WVR, or use Winchester weapon state."

-> I changed the mission to WVR or Winchester, but the message persist in the eventlog.
What did i wrong?

Do you have a save file available to look at?

It is the original scenario file. Then a few seconds and you see it in the eventlog...

Did you select the Reset affected units (inherit from above Doctrine) button on the bottom of the Mission Doctrine window? I changed the Weapon State, Pre-Planned to Use loadout setting, and after pressing this button, got no more messages regarding weapon state for the Su-15 sqn.

Yes, but the message is still there
Can you please upload the changed scenario? (Version 7.3)
Thank's

Just getting to this now. I think WVR Shotgun is better but I am going to go for 'Inherited, Use Loadout settings'

An-26 was 24 miles out of range!! Fixed.

Ok here is ver 7.4 with quick fixes for those two points.

More in-depth update to follow, hopefully within a week or so.

Hi
It seems that this is into the bastion scenario.....

Hay! well at least I'm consistent! Sheesh

here you go

One more small issue: C-9A at Reykjavik has a one way range of 1740 nm, not enough to get to Oceana NAS. Set that one up as a ferry to Gander?

Hi Gunner98
Do you still plan a more in-Depth update?

Greetings

Do you still plan a more in-Depth update?

Eventually but I am struggling with the mechanism for runway repair. Beyond that will simply be more taskings for NATO ships to be departing the area, but more flavour than substantive I think.

So I would say that this scenario is ~95% done. I may just put it up to the community pack as is and fix later.

I took a quick look inside the latest version (7.4) to see what had changed. Very nice! I really like the additions and tweaks to the subs, small craft, etc. I see K-388 is reading the highway signs, and there are numerous other nasty surprises! I wish I could temporarily erase my memory and play this one again without fore-knowledge.

A few quick notes:

B303, down along the coast, has no mission or course.

K408 Yankee Notch is firing immediately at the auto-detected LZ at Baby Ice, even though its mission is not yet active.

Both Yankee Notches are immediately RTB-ing for the "Primary Attack Weapon is at less than: Exhausted" setting. Changing this to "ignore" will solve the issue.

SG ASW (ASW Patrol) mission has its patrol zone stationary out in the middle of the Norwegian Sea, 330 miles away, rather than near the SAG.

I was only about 4 houres in...
So i wait until Gunner98 make last corrections...

Thanks Andrew

morphin - I'll make these fixes and some others I have on my list. Will try and get it out later today.

OK here is an update (7.5) with some fixes for Andrews points, some other tweaks and some added tasks for NATO.

Enjoy - I think this one will be complete unless anyone highlights any lingering errors.
