Inside the one big formation we may have different types of small formations (don't know how to say it right in English).
Enough said for now... too early to open all playing cards  |
Oleg: First time posting here. Excellent job with the series so far. I'm a huge fan! Would you consider putting a tool in the sim that would allow players to create custom formations? There were so many different SOPs and methods of organizing air wings on all sides. Rather then try to include a limited selection of formations in the game, allow players to create there own and make them exportable files as are aircraft skins and missions. That alone greatly expands the possibilities for much more epically scaled missions. Such as the London blitz campaign or simply the recreation of a red star formation with a flight of Yaks for a victory parade over Moscow, for example.
I spent the better part of a year trying to make a large bomber formation in 1946. Its proven impossible in the current version of the sim...
