HI MattE,

I finally ironed out the bug, breaking the custom menu for the RAF team, at least I hope and if find some time, I will rework the Carquebut airfield today.

Currently you can only start a mission which is selected randomly. The pilots back then didn´t have the choice either

, and both teams can start a mission, but only 1 every 60 minutes, so all players can concentrate on the currently set mission objectives and no one can choose their favourite (most points / easiest / what ever reasons) mission.

The available planes a team has, now depends on their scores and currently I am also working on a "supply system", which shall enable the players to order certain rare types of planes. The supply will finally be also the winning criterium of the "Kanalkampf" scenario.

Maybe you are referring to the circle-spawn-method I described here?

That works and I first designed all our airfields that way, until I found out that blocking spawnpoints prevents the game from using them. But the problem is, I like to begin my flight in a hanger or under a camo tent...

For the detailed describtion:
Some hangers are not even with the ground. Their floor is a little higher f.e. 20cm. But the planes spawns at height 0 over ground, so the wheels stuck in the hanger while spawning. If you don´t move no problem, but the sligthes movement will cause your plane to jump up (to get on the floor hight) and explode either at the ceiling of the hanger or because a collision was detected, due to the wheels stucking in the concrete.
