Thanks a lot!
I find it very difficult to finetune a missions not having ext.views ON. That's why we are running Repka with views temporary. I wish we could have an admin entrance to a server with ext.views.

HI Ataros,

AT the moment we are trying to get the mission to run smoothly and so far with the latest patch (14550) things are looking better.

As for the script.... well I have kind of pinched yours, made a few simples changes and have it running at the moment. I made my own submissions.

The mission itself is extremely simple and was originally created just to test the FMB really....that was 2 weeks ago! Still struggling with scripts, Spawning in hangars (though by using airfield points I have got rid of that to some extent) and despawning AI aircraft.

Once we have something stable I'll be happy to put it online for all to see.

Did you manage to get them working? Only 2 AF points are used in my missions and then players spawn on an AF radius due to bugged AF points I think.

Well, Bliss has gone hog-wild on the server and we are currently running a mission with at least some 300 ai in it. Come in today and give our server all it can handle.
Much appreciated!

Well I had over 1500 Bombers in the air at once on there, but the loading times were about 5 minutes to get in. According to flashy it was still smooth. 300 different bombers going to target should be plenty though.

Tried your server last night- had some fun but ran into a gaggle of 109's that circled just off the coast at approx 1000ft. I chased them at full throttle and managed to down three of them.... and no reaction from them other than to move their circuit overland.
I couldn't keep up with them so i let them go and headed back to base. Just as i was about to land i had a major screen freeze and (I think) slammed into the ground.
This was the first time i've had problems on your server- never had a screen freeze like that before.

you guys are nuts!!!! remember gentlemen a chain is as strong as its weakest link...your server maybe able to handle it but i doubt most people will be able to deal with more than 50 AI in there view at any given time ....but lets hope i am wrong

Thx all for flying on the server! Seems to run ok. Some lost sound though, including myself. Mine came back eventually.
