Simple question, I'm trying to do the Strike Tutorial #2, and when it asks me to set transit/station/and attack altitudes for the mission, or check the boxes for terrain following, I am unable to type or click the boxes. I have tried pressing or changing every option, but it simply WILL NOT let me edit those fields. Whenever I try to type in the boxes, it gives me the windows 'ding' noise, but I cannot seem to find an error or message log about it.

Can you at post a save where the mission is already created or give a more detailed description of what you are trying to do?

Its been a long time since I did any of the beginning tutorials and not sure what they are asking for. Also note which version you are playing.

Sure, so they want me to setup an ASuW Patrol, within a pre-defined area, that's currently in range of a Russian SA-5 sam site, and wants me to set my altitudes to below 600ft AGL as the effective range of their missiles is 650ft+

They have you setup the mission, select the recon aircraft, and when I'm trying to set the mission flight parameters to keep the plane under 600 ft AGL, I cannot type in any numbers or edit the mission params whatsoever.

(Not sure how to upload saves, however it's the Strike #2 tutorial with the German Tornado IDS jets.

Also, version is 1.02

I just created an ASuW(land) mission and entered 6000 ft. in each of the altitude settings in the box on the right with no issues. Did you clear the words first? If you don't clear the words first, there isn't enough room to type it in. That tone you here is Windows telling you that. Its a standard Windows error tone for data entry, just like Word, Excel, etc.

You are....100% right, I didn't consider for a second the text fields actually had the 'Not Specified' entered into it and I had to delete them, I just assumed when you typed it would overwrite that text. I just checked and was able to do it no problem.

Thank you so much, it was driving me NUTS.
