Yep, we already worked that one out, it should be off now.

Thanks for a great server! Had a lot of fun there today. There were as many as 20 people sometimes I think.

Can we have some ships put into mission in the middle of the channel and give fighters objectives to protect them. This way we can meet each other easier. The map is huge for 10 - 20 ppl atm.

Another thought is that Spit IIa is better than 109 in both power and turn rate historically iirc and ingame. Therefore 109 can not neither outclimb, nor outrun, nor outturn this opponent. Maybe we should limit availability to Spit Ia only. It has turn advantage but 109 would have speed advantage. Let's do some tests.

Ships in the channel would be awesome.

back up again, blasted thing keeps shutting itself down. The hardware and server are fine, Rise of flight server is ticking along fine, just the CLOD server keeps closing down with an error in fact it doesn't close down, it just stops the connection by the look of it I have to manually stop the battle. So whoever is typing in \ please don't

Can't use keys or values with a \

What that means I don't know.

The wrinkles will get ironed out. Thanks for hosting this wonderful server!

There are ships in the channel already (v1.3). I could put some in the centre, just as a point of reference and interest that might draw people together.

Limiting the choice to Ia is simple enough.



EDIT: I posted v1.4 to the Syn chaps -

Changes:

*Medium tankers placed in centre of English channel with intentions to focus some battles.
*Adjusted Northern Fighter spawn (along the South coast) so that you no longer spawn in hangers with closed doors.
*Updated Fighter Spawn description to give location of tankers in centre of channel.
*Removed Spitfire IIa for balancing reasons.

Got one hangar with Stuka! Few minutes after that came connection timeout...

Yeah, I think it's really buggy right now (along with everything else about the game )

But I just checked the bandwidth usage and it's pushing around 8mbps of upload speed, so there must be a decent amount of people in there.

Are you able to reconnect?

Only tabs at the bottom are Exit, Start recording, Options, and Plane. Sorry, first time online in CoD and I'm completely lost!

Hi cheesehawk,

It sounds like you are doing everything correct minus one step. After you've selected your army, selected your airfield and setup your plane configuration, on the same menu for your plane then you have to scroll all the way down and there's a button that should be clickable called "create" If it's not clickable you've chosen a plane or field you can't spawn from. After hitting create you should immediately spawn.

Hope this helps.
