FFG in-flight helos

[SeaQueen]

How far away is the inflight helo? If it's beyond a certain distance you won't get a link to the helo, so you can't control it.

Like I said, it works from time to time, even without changing any parameters. I have the newest DW patch, and the problem remains the same despite the LWAMI mod patch number. I figured it might have something to do with the helo's tactics (transit/transit search etc).

Can't remember if I have used this in any Future Fleet missions currently in Bill's site, but it seems that the majority of designers don't have this problem. (Should I perhaps make the helo a controllable platform? This may cause some problems in the solo missions that I make.)

I guess I'll just use the helo as intended, and if somebody other has the same problem during gameplay, remove the in-flight helo option. I'm currently in play-testing phase of 7 new FF missions, and in a couple of them it would be nice to have the helo already in the air.

Thanks for the answer, anyway.
