This is really really cool, just flew a sortie attacking British columns as they advanced towards Boulogne ^^

Only problem I seem to have is no friendly or enemy aircraft spawn..

English have landed in France and move to push German back.
This is a game for 1-20 people who want to fly all for the one side or PvP with some AI Also Dynamic Ground units.

Dynamic Ground units spawn in random vehicles and armour of groups of 4 and will attack closest enemy bases. If they destroy enemy the airodrome will change to the attacking side.

This mission runs on Repka #2 server now.
We left map icons ON for a couple of days to make it easier to spot ground targets. Other settings will be adjusted in the future for more realistic experience too.

Captured BR-20s are given to red side to compensate for limited amount of flyable red bombers.

No AI airgroups spawn unfortunately atm.

Please leave your comments here.



Thanks again for the mission!

Glad you guys like it. I have some free time tonight so will look at the Spawn issue.

I am sure it is just a minor thing.

Will fix, test and post mission on here tonight around 10pm Melbourne Australia time or earlier if possible.


Now where is that next game patch

[Ataros]

Here is an update from Repka №2. Looks like blue are going to capture some red airfields soon.



Could you please include some changes to the mission if other players do not mind them.

Ground units - remove ambulance cars from vehicle lists. I saw 4 medical cars attacking tanks once.

Planeset - move BR-20 to red side (as if captured units) to compensate for limited amount of flyable red bombers. Remove Spit-2 and Bf-110C7 for balancing purpose. We can do it ourselves of cause but it would be a waste of time to do the same changes to every version of the mission.

In case there are some AI fighters in the mission make them 2-engine only. From feedback on the server we learned that players hate fighting a single-engined fighter only to learn in the end it was an AI but not a human pilot.
Many prefer not having AI fighters in missions at all, only AI bombers.

What happens when no red airfields are left in France? Can an end mission message be printed on screen and original mission (frontline) reloaded to start from beginning?

Thank you for your mission and for helping fine-tuning it.

Another feedback I just got from players of Repka 2 server is that supply trucks and fuel trucks are attacking enemy positions in front of tanks that looks a bit strange. Probably it is worth to exclude unarmed vehicles from ground forces completely.

ok I have upload all the changes as put forward by Ataros.

See Page one for zip file

All changes relate to the HC7.mis and HC7.cs and all missions in the HC7 folders

Hope this is better for all the Repka server flyers.

Cheers! from Melbourne

I notice some pretty sever lag/rubber banding of the ground vehicles. I flew a 110 last night and strafed a few columns. The object I shot at did explode, but several meters ahead of where the object I shot at was. Like it just warped ahead to explode. I did have a near 200 ping but other players aircraft and ai aircraft do not have that odd warping effect that the ground vehicles do.
