Aircraft - The Ongoing Saga

[Red Devil]

I think I have found a solution to the constant crash diving to avoid multiple bogeys coming in, usually right at you.

Confifure the air.cfg file to these numbers and you will still get aircraft but on what is probably a very accurate frequency.


[AirStrikeSettings]
; AirStrike Creation Parameters
; Airstrike Session:
; 1. Compute airbases in range according to their aircraft maximum ranges
; 2. Compute air coverage factors on allies/axis/neutral on the target zone
; 3. Compute airstrike probability from each base
; 3.1 check number of aircraft that can strike at that range and conditions, and compute a coverage factor based on the range of each aircraft type
; and detection area around submarine ( 10 km radius )
; 3.2 multiply coverage factor for the target area with :
; - current airstrike probability againt that side
; - nigft factor ( if necessary )
; - airbase competence
; - close to airbase factor
; 3.3 check probability for airstrike
; 3.4 add more aircraft probabilistically for a large target

Use that with RSRD it could really screw things up, so always be careful what mods you play with. Also, depends on the last mod you run that effects air settings. If you use those settigs say for stock, then run RSRD over stock, RSRD will reset the parameters.

Probably work with stock alone OK.....

Thanks for that piece, I still meet planes, and on occasion after combat, but then radar picks them up and I go down for 5 minutes. But nowhere near the frequency of the original text.
