There is something with WITP Air Operations who is a bit off, and I wounder if it is fixed in AE.. or it maby is a sulution for WITP 2 instead.


Why can one not Send an Air Strike from point A to attack targets at point B and then land at Point C.

It could be ie. a Fighter Escrot flying from point A, but who does not have enugth range to get to and from target, so they need to land at an airbase closer to the target before making the return flight. ??

Is the Game Engine preventing this, or can it be done in AE ??

Just rebase your squadron and perform the mission from the new base the same day.

Probably not close to what happened in real life when squadrons were rebased. In real life I'd expect a couple of days delay before they become active again, so this is a free benefit of the program IMHO.

Actually Staging throug Port Moresby can be done just as it was done.
Day(turn) 1: evening - planes land at Port Moresby after flying for few hours from Australia. Refueled, armed, prepared. Crews fed and send to sleep. (Just what you do with Transfer to base)
Day(turn) 2: morning - pilots fed again, briefing and leaving for mission in the early morning. Return the same morning.
Day(turn) 2: evening - as clouds appeared ovee Owen Stanleys, almost no missions were flown against northern side of NG. Repairing planes.
Day(turn) 2: evening - planes and crews fly back to australia (transfer back to australia).

There is only nuissance in game: Damaged planes are not flying back (make sense when half of the wing is shot up, but make no sense with few holes in the fuselage).
