If they dont turn on until 200m then they were probably under my nose before they turned on, especially as without threshold lights I was landing long to avoid landing before the invisible runway started!

I saw your other post, but since we're getting no info from TD, we can at least discuss this ourselves
You can request lights anywhere, but they get activated only when you hear "Roger" in response to the request. I was asking whether the distance from the lights when they will actually be lit is set, and to what value, and if we could change that distance to something reasonable (like inner or outer marker).
In general, I don't have a clue how those dim lights they've put into the mission would be of any use. Nowadays rwy lights are directional and not dimmed in any way, in WW II - I don't know, but the lights that you've added to the mission look more likely and are more useful.
Oh and one other thing
DT, can we please get the landing lights for B-25?. Here's one B-25 J that definitely has them...
