jatzi -> Issue with adding new squadrons (1/6/2022 4:34:34 PM)

I'm working on a mod and I've added 6 squadrons, 3 to the Dutch and 3 to the commonwealth. All are set to appear at the start of the game and only the dutch squadrons are doing so. The rest are all appearing 2 days after the start of the game. I can't figure out why. Anyone have any ideas?

Screen shots help

He doesn't have enough posts....GP

Ah I was wondering why it wouldn't work. How many posts do you need before you can post pictures?

Also, I mean they come into the game. If I were to put the squadron on a carrier it'd come in at the start as it should on the ship. But when I have it spawn at Rabaul it doesn't come in. A note, it's a new aircraft and a new HQ. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

EDIT: Ok so I switched the squadrons to the US, the HQ and base as well, and they showed up just fine. A note on this mod. It's a mod where the British kept their alliance with Japan. In order for the British to fight alongside the Japanese I had to switch all their assets over to the Japanese. So there aren't any more commonwealth bases, units, ships, HQ's, air groups, nothing. Leaders. I wanted to include the Germans a bit. This is who I was adding to the Commonwealth, I wanted to have them be a separate group from the US so I put them under the empty Commonwealth. I can just put them all under the US, it's not a huge deal but any ideas on what could be happening here. I put in an HQ. I made the base belong to the commonwealth under a commonwealth HQ. I put in a leader to fill an air group. Not quite sure why they're not working. It' not an issue with the air group itself I think, or the aircraft, because they spawn correctly under the US banner. Lack of pilots? But the commonwealth has trainee pilots right?

Check the appearance date....GP




jatzi -> RE: Issue with adding new squadrons (1/6/2022 8:44:02 PM)

It's correct. Read my edit

You have the Brits side with the Axis and the Germans side with the Allies? What's the background story to this constellation?

As for the error - screenshots or the scenario files required for help.

So the USA will be fighting against the Allies? Is there peace in Europe with the USSR attacking Japan and the USA is allied with the Soviets? China under Chiang actually made peace with Japan in 1937 and agreed to allow/help Japan take out the Chinese communists?

I think you need 10 posts in order to be able to post screenshots.

The mod does sound interesting, it doesn't make a whole lot of sense historically, but from a game scenario point of view, it could be fun to play.
Though I think balancing this scenario will be a nightmare.
The US in stock is probably not strong enough to fight Japan and the Commonwealth at the same time, especially in the early game.

I don't know the first thing about modding, but the two things I noticed is that the nation "Commonwealth" normally only has one squadron in the stock game and they don't have a pilot pool in the "pilot replacement" menu.

And it's a fleet air arm squadron, as well. No 1844. It should be a UK squadron.

jatzi -> RE: Issue with adding new squadrons (1/12/2022 4:39:09 PM)

Everything works if I make the squadrons, and the air HQ, US Army so I'm just doing that. When I get around to leaders and pilots and whatnot I'll add some to the British and try again but if nothing works it does work with the US Army. I don't think screenshots would help cuz the squadron is set up correctly. It spawns in, fights, etc.

The USSR isn't involved
