Hi everyone,
I've just submitted the updated files for London Ruft V1.1 to Bliss for his review etc.
The easiest way to check which version of the mission you are flying is to check the briefing - you should see the name 'London Ruft V1.1' if/when Bliss loads the new version.
I've made a bunch of changes in response to feedback (thank you to those who provided some) with some of the main ones being:
(a) removed all the cloud objects - Bliss thinks these may have been the cause of the invisible bug issue. Hopefully Bliss will be able to get Salmo's random time / weather script - thanks again Salmo - working so there will still be clouds in the mission. But the big cloud objects wont be present in the updated version. Maybe one day....
(b) removed the AI aircraft that ummm, <cough cough> i inadvertently left in there by mistake
(c) removed a bunch of AI moving vehicles (trains and fuel convoys and some tanks) to reduce the number to less than 30
(d) placed some more flak (bofors) on Gatwick to make it similar to Canterbury re flak / AAA
(e) included the location of the Tiger Moth agent insertion / downed pilot pick up areas in the Allied mission briefing. At present these arent scripted so you wont get any points but i think some players might enjoy the challenge of flying thru enemy territory and landing/ taking off in a small field to simulate inserting agents and picking up downed pilots. Down the track i hope to be able to use some script magic to allow points to be awarded for successful completion of this mission and perhaps bomber resupply missions into Gatwick and Canterbury which might use a similar script.
(f) Removed the PRU/ unarmed aircraft and replaced them with armed variants.
(g) And a few other tweaks.
After its loaded if you have any further feedback pls dont hesitate to post. In particular if you have the invisible aircraft bug in the V1.1 version pls let me know and i will investigate - i'm hoping the changes i made might have gotten rid of this issue but only time will tell.
And lastly. Once again a big thanks to the various people (Reddog, Philstyle, Salmo, Bolox, Swallow, Spiritus M, Bliss, Wolverine, Freya et al) who have directly or indirectly helped me thus far and continue to help - thanks for your help and patience.
Ezzie
