In the Guadacanal scenario I am playing allies against pbem opponenet and noticed a great new plane, the b17 F, as in FRICKIN GREAT!!!
ok, now I would love to say its my imaginary rocket boosters, but unfortunately the other scenarios actual do not support the great flight charactoristics!
Range 25,32, ceiling 37,500 feet, crap I am going to bomb Truck from PM!!! lol
just thought you would want to know this, we did not fool around with the editor, the plane does not gain payload, at first thought it might b a 29, but cannot seem to find these anywhere else.. thanks guys for a great toy, AE!

I assume you meant to type "Why in the world...."

Have no idea. I wasn't the OOB dude. Its probably just a simple typo that was corrected in more recent OOB updates for SCEN 1.

ok, so the differnett scenarios somehow use differrent planes? I guess I do not understand how that works, assumed, incorrectly, all the scens pulled from the same db

Each Scenario has it's own set of OOB files. "Ideally", if all the OOB files, in terms of values and slot #'s are the same, one needs only to rename updated SCEN 1 OOB files to the respective scn #'s of the others included in AE and wellla, the scenario is updated..

Guad SCN 4 however was mostly laid out well before GOLD so retains some of the old slot #'s used for some device/classes...and also has unique production values being a small non-industry scenario. Short and skinny is that to update SCN 4 requires manual input which i havn't had time for up to this point but will work to achieve for the next patch.

Nik,

THanks. The GUA scenario is a great scenario to play for short games. Lot of replay value in it.

I was really surprised to see this plane type that could fly from Nomau to rahbaal and bomb it and return.. in 1942!!!
thanks
do I need to do anything else to have this bug listed for fixing in the future?
