Some scenarios for sure expect you to use all VLADs you can carry. I just don't get why VLAD shallow goes for 600ft !? What exactly is shalow on that ?
I would make all shalow-ones go to 90ft, all deep-ones to 800 ft.

Btw. how do I make helo to reload buoys ? They somehow don't want to do it .. or wait .. maybe they need just more time, right ?

Well having the same settings of deep and shallow for all the buoys is a big step backwards.
Right now you need to know the evironmental conditions of the operations area as to decide which buoys (and deep or shallow) to take.
It adds to the realism.
Before 1.03 one only took the vlad and dicass (for any type of mission) and the difars never entered the equation.


You can reload the helo, just go back to the frigate.
