I did a quick look at my Allied shipborne seaplane, the Kingfisher, and it worked fine during a test mission with it patrolling over a group of Jap ships. Took a nose dive towards one of them and dropped its two 100 lb bomb's as expected.
So, I'm wondering why I couldn't get the plane to spawn from the BB Alabama when I had it in my test mission the other day?? The Jap Catapult ship was spewing out Pete's and Rufe's several by the hour....but nothing from the Alabama?!? Going to have to check some detection parameters to see if there is something different for an Allied response, when compared to the Axis response. I wonder if the same Alabama would hold onto its planes when a detected U-Boat is in range??
