4-12 wish list (Merged)

Just create a lineup where you can easyly see your companions on the strip set a good side wind and watch how they easily hold direction, whilst your only chance is wheathercocking.
Just give it a try:

One mission where you start at the runway. Allyour companions are able to take of, you only turn into the wind. Maybe its better with pedals and one sided breaking.
The other mission is the sabe, but you start out of the box and your goal is, to reach the runway and try to start.

Good luck

Since the difficulty menu now has several sub pages, could you stop it from resetting to default with every new campaign?

Also, wish you looked into the following issue: it happens quite often that when I switch from autopilot to manual at the moment of encountering enemy, it turns out that my aircraft has partially lowered flaps, which are stuck in that position.

Since the P-36 is getting some love and the Finnish version will be flyable, perhaps TD would consider non-flyable variants of this ubiquitous early war fighter. Most of these models just require trivial FM/DM tweaks.

China - H75M - with fixed landing gear. It could also double for the H75N used by Thailand against the French and Japanese.

France/Finland - H75A-1, H75A-2. Captured survivors of the Battle of France were later sold to Finland by the Germans.

Great Britain - Mohawk I-IV. Basically, just H75A1-A4 from French stocks, but with slightly altered throttles and Vickers .303 machine guns. Could just be a loadout option for the H75A1-4, but also carried bombs. Used in East Africa by SAAF. Used by the RAF and RIAF the CBI until 1944.

Finland - 1942 upgunned H75A, with 1 or 2 .50 caliber MG in the nose and 2-4 0.303 caliber BMG in each wing, or the 12.7mm Berezin UB or LKk/42 heavy machine guns. Might possibly just be a loadout option for existing H75A-4.

Netherlands/KNIL - 75A-7. 1,200 hp Cyclone, 1 0.5 caliber MG and 1 0.303 MG in the cowl and 2 .303 MG in wings, or 4 .303 in - two in nose, one in each wing). Provision to carry up to 6 50 lb. bombs. Used extensively during defense of Dutch East Indies against the Japanese.

USA - P-36A-3 mounting four .30 in (7.62 mm) machine guns in the wings in addition to nose armament. Served at Pearl Harbor, scoring two of the first U.S. kills of the war.

As an avid offline player, my only major wish besides more planes would be more dynamic campaigns. I, for one, would especially love to see dynamic campaigns for the Italians in North Africa, American fighters and bombers in Italy and the East Indies, the Americans and RAF in Normandy, and dynamic campaigns for our new planes such as the Il-4 and Pe-8

There's lots of good content at web sites like Mission 4 Today:

But, you're right. Nobody seems to have developed missions or campaigns for the new flyable aircraft.

Official missions, which showcase the new aircraft in their historical context, would be welcome.

Any requests?

Here are a number of user made dynamic campaigns:

The campaigns done by me require the new DGen by Asura.

If I were greedy, I'd say there there should be a least one mission for every player flyable plane in the game.

Realistically, maybe just a few missions for the new planes since 4.10 that many people aren't familiar with, with realistic formations, operating altitudes, objectives and opponents. My top picks would be the new He-111 variants and the CW-21.

He-111-6 and -12 Torpedo/Fritz X: Shipping Strike in the Gulf of Finland or off Norway.

CW-21: KNIL vs. too many Japanese (A6M2 and/or G4M) over Malaysia.

CW-21 or H75A: Hypothetical China, RAF or RIAF intercept against too many Ki-21/Ki-27 or A5M/G4M over Burma.

There might be enough material for a short CW-21 campaign...I'd have to look into that.

I do have to ask... you do know that we put together a half dozen to a dozen single missions featuring some of the new aircraft for the last couple of patches, right? The Hs-129 and IL-4 in particular get a bit of attention.

There isn't much in the way of historical scenarios that could be done with the CW-21. They had a short combat career and not exactly on any maps we have although the Singapore map could provide some limited possibility. It's mostly a hopeless fight where the players side looses all of their aircraft

We definitely need new dgen campaigns. I wonder if there is a TD plan to improve DGEN and to create some new ones? That would be nice...
