LOL

I saw that too but thought surely he must know

Yes, but i can't choose the skin myself, that's the difference.

Would love that to be a stock feature though.......

We are referring to the fact you were talking about automatically changing the skin for the map in your earlier post.

Also

You can select the skin as the default skin for the map in v4.11.

Precisely .. make it so there is a default .. and a variable slot .. even if there is only one variable.. and if that is set to say 0 in the config file then it will automatically use the default .. but if set to 1 it will use whatever custom skin you have selected.

.. and guys just be absolutely clear on this .. I use mods .. I like some of them .. but IMO as I have said .. the future of this sim lies with TD and their work.. whatev4r mod pack tat makes itslef most compatible with the stock sim will be on my HD .. but the work that TD does isn ivaluable to keeping this sim alive and IMO if it were just left solely to the mod community we would have even more fracturing. The fact that there have always been dedicated stock servers on HL says a lot .. the fact that there are more now ... and that they are being utilized says even more.

It looks like the automatic skin selection for static planes might be dependant on the type of aircraft, it might be that there's no skin for it because it was never used in that map/theatre.

Certainly a manual skin option for static aircraft/vehicles would be preferred so we can place stuff in there with a winter/desert skin on it
