First, for IJN side; I have been able to get A5M, A6M2-21, and B5N2 to spawn a flight of 4 and take off ok.

For U.S. side, I've been able to spawn a flight of 4 F2-A2 buffalos and they take off in pairs even clipping through the island superstructure. But, a group of 4 devastators will not launch except for plane 1. I even tried a different CV, shifting from SARA to LEX.

I'm sure it is a user problem vice IL-2.

Here are the files. It's just a simple set of tests for launching AI from CV, assigning fighters to escort bombers, then landing them back on the CV, vice a well thought out mission.

As a test, I also tried placing TBM-3's on a generic IJN CV and they won't launch from it either regardless of 1, 2, 3 or 4 planes in the flight.

I tested the mission. The problem seems to be with the TBD-1. I tried using other 4-plane flights and they all took off fine (even the TBM-3). I tried the original mission in 4.11.1 and it worked fine.

I would say there may be some kind of bug with the TBD-1 in 4.12. It should be reported.

*BTW, when you create landing waypoints on a carrier, don't forget to 'Set' it to the carrier, like you do with the takeoff. Yours were not done correctly.
