But that's all it signifies, is an airplane RGG.

The little "text file" icons you see are note icons that are input for "markers" while the file is being built so that the author (lurker?? traveller??) didn't have to "Merge" files each time he wanted to find a harbor or some other location important to the layout of the assets. They do not show in the game. The gray lines are actually two things that you have ticked in the "Performance" menu. The one is the "Show random instance pathway", which shows the "route" that a spawned unit will take, and "Show random instance parent", which is a straight line from the Green circle, back to the "parent" square RGG icon origination spot. It also looks like you have "Show random instance name", which is the light blue names polluting the screen. One thing to remember about the names, is that the name will have a spawn number designation, such as a "base" RGG name of "41a_Palau_Bohol" would have a "suffix", such that the first spawned is "41a_Palau_Bohol 01", while the 20th would be "41a_Palau_Bohol 20". Use the "base" name to find the unit in the file.

You can run the "Simulator" without any of that on, if so desired, and when you see something interesting, you can pause the action, and then click on what you want to see on that "Performance" menu, and it should update the display. You can click on the "Hand" icon and "left-click and drag" the map as you want, zooming in and out at will, and the screen will stutter as you do that, but you can also pause the action and do the same.

thanks.
so red lines are aircraft from either an airbase or an aircraft calendar. got it.
new question that just popped up: in TMO 2.5 with RSRD, will IJN aircraft carriers spawn aircraft while i am attacking their convoy/taskforce? i know in the Stock game they never would but in FOTRS-U they do.
