As we begin the new year I’ll be happy to see any improvements that Daidalos bring our way as always!

But for what it's worth, my personal number ones on the wish list are still the same as last year really...

Aircraft: Heinkel He 115 (non-flyable is fine)

Ship: USS Ranger (CV-4)

Gameplay: More realistic AI behaviour in general is always greatly appreciated if someone has the know-how to do it. Plenty of room for improvement still, as often discussed in the forums.

Functionality: Not so important, but I haven’t mentioned this before. Having a Full Mission Builder that forgets where you were on the mission building map every time you return from play test mode is really annoying when you’re fine tuning missions in the far corner of a larger map. It would save heaps of time if we had an FMB that automatically returned to the same location and zoom on the map when you exit the play test mode. I don’t know if that’s a difficult ask or not.

Thanks anyway, and happy new year!

1. Waypoint headings for the way points in FMB.

IE---- I want to build a mission, and I want my ship on course say 135 Degrees
Currently I have to put in the ship, on what my best guess is to 135. Then put in an aircraft over the ships waypoints, save mission, go out, launch co-op, pick airplane, see its waypoints. Oh.. Its 117 Degrees. Go back out, pull up FMB. Adjust ship a little more to the south. Move aircraft waypoint to match ships again... and repeat and repeat and repeat. A very time consuming process.

2. New loadouts:
for SBD-3/5 ------ two 100 lb bombs on wings with one 500 lb under center
For B5N2 ---- one 800 Kg bomb
two 250 Kg bombs

3. More players

Ship convoys!

We have land based road columns. It would be great do have something similar for the ships. And it would makes it alot easier every time you want to add a convoy of ships instead of having to make it ourself one ship at a time.

I agree wholeheartedly. Probably, the feature one of the most desired by mission makers.

And if you've got the code to do ship convoys (to make ships "follow the leader" while in formation), it would be easy to program simple movement patterns for the convoy, like zig-zag, or left or right turn, as well as straight ahead.
