You don't need to use mini tweaker. Just open the airstrike.cfg in notepad.

If you see close to the end of this file you see the following lines:
Quote:
Default Air Strike Probability
Enemy Air Strike Probability Increase on Radio Messages Sent
Friendly Air Strike Probability Increase on Contact Report Sent
These are the settings after installing STANDARD VERSION of my mod:
Quote:
Default Air Strike Probability=5
Enemy Air Strike Probability Increase on Radio Messages Sent=30
Friendly Air Strike Probability Increase on Contact Report Sent=90
These are the original settings in the unmodded Silent hunter 4 - 1.2 game:
Quote:
Default Air Strike Probability=10
Enemy Air Strike Probability Increase on Radio Messages Sent=30
Friendly Air Strike Probability Increase on Contact Report Sent=70
Try to change the Default Air Strike Probability to somewhere between 5 and 10.

If you would like to change the general airtraffic around japanese airbases (aircoverage areas), you have to change some other files.
You can use notepad to edit these as well.
The files that needs to be changed to add more traffic to areas with aircoverage go to the following directory:

DATA/LAND

There are three files that you have to look into here.
These files are:

DATA/LAND/LAB_SmallAirBaseJP/LAB_SmallAirBaseJP.cfg
DATA/LAND/LAB_MediumAirBaseJP/LAB_MediumAirBaseJP.cfg
DATA/LAND/LAB_LargeAirBaseJP/LAB_LargeAirBaseJP.cfg

Opening one of these you will see something similar to this:
Quote:
[AirGroup 1]
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19401225
Squadron1Class=A6M2Zero
Squadron1No=2
There will be several Airgroups in these files, change the squadron numbers to increase airtraffic.

The text I highlighted in bold represents the number of squadrons on that type of airbase. The higher number - the more airplanes will cover that airspace.

See the readme to see what I changed these numbers to.
If you have problems finding balanced settings you can try to reduce the numbers slightly from the original SH4 settings instead.
If you have a backup, of course

Did this make sense, leovampire?
