Some carrier planes not available on strike page

Post by thedoctorking »

I'm playing a complex scenario with three carrier divisions. The only planes that are available on the strike menu are those on the lead group, the one with two CVs. The CVL groups' fighters are flying CAP, including providing CAP to the surface squadron, but cannot be ordered to participate in strikes. I tried putting them on AI control, and they still did nothing.

Are you remembering to change the 'source division' in the bottom left of the airstrike planning screen?

Yes, I tried that down arrow but there were no choices on there.

I think the other divisions might have been support added by the app rather than actual parts of my formation. So maybe WAD?

This is the same problem as with the other things I've been concerned about - the menus only open properly when the game is up on the same monitor that it originally launched on. I had been dragging the game over to a larger monitor and that is why I was unable to move submarines, change loadouts on aircraft, or get that menu where I could select other formations to ready planes.

Yes, the game currently is not fully compatible with multi-monitor setups in certain cases. We are examining a potential very major update to the game that would resolve this and other UI issues as well we think; please bear in mind this update would take some time to implement even if it works out as we hope it will, which we will not know until after a fair amount of prep & testing first.

Thanks!
