I'm Back! - Do Planes indicate carrier groups?

Schlageter-JG26 · 03-09-09, 09:40 AM

Just getting back to this wonderful program.

I'll be catching up on mods since I started playing with fatigue, boat speed and guns way back when. Hope to find some cool stuff out there by now!

Btw - Sorry to read of my Connecticut neighbor passing away last year.

But here's a question - it is March 27th, 1942 in my new campaign. I have just begun my 3rd sortie and have sailed out so I am just SW of Midway by a few hundred miles. Contact inbound reported... very fast... aircraft... ENEMY!!!!

Does the game have random flights that far out from the Japanese mainland, or does it populate flights within a radius of a carrier fleet?

Do I have a carrier fleet somewhere within reach and a full complement of torpedoes?

Also - does the game put fleets in approximate locations based on historical data?

Or should I watch where the plane goes when it leaves and follow that angle??
