Our idea is to add a fighter type and a Bomber type. We have the JSF wich is both. So Im thinking of leaving the JSF as a third option (and very expensice BTW) and have the other two. Or use the JSF as one type and use the most voted one as a second option.

Please tell what you think.

Thanks!

If you're trying to create an aircraft carrier which lands and launches planes in the same fashion as an Air Field, then you'll likely find that it won't work. The ObjectCreationList or any other module tags appear unable to update the location of the carried units when landed and the carrier is mobile. You may need to rethink the technique that you use for this.

Friendly warning !

Haha, it's never been a problem for me perhaps you should adjust your cookie settings! I'm unsure of whether you'll be able to do that either, one possibility is to spawn a returning projectile object however, and I believe you can have the spawned object with a ranged weapon too. I've never tried it, but it's worth a shot I reckons.

Make it work like the drones for USAs tanks, not sure how to get them to launch though.

what about using raptors and auroras i dont know how that will work but i have seen that in another mod once i dont know so wery much about modding anyway but it is a sugestion

[ajsarge]

Hehe, you do know that the F/A-18E is a multi-role ? Both bomber and fighter. The F-14 is actually a milti-role, but it is more air supp... fighter. Another idea is to make the JSF a fighter-bomber unit that costs around 1750 credits. That way the JSF is the USA carrier super weapon. And thanks for using my F-14 idea!!! (or at least looking at it)

PS: The F-14 moving wings are unable to be done, so just stick them in the extended posistion.

Honestly, maybe the answer lies not in making the carrier mobile and functional but by making the airfield mobile. Than just change models.

clap clap clap clap

[juanmanuelsanchez]

one of our modelers though of that ... in fact I have the model. I will ask Zack if we will use it.

How about this:
4 MH 53 Transport Choppers
Add marines as units so like 50 of them can be on board the AC,as crewmen or as boys ready 4 an amphibious landing
Planes
4 S3B Vikings as anti-sub
8-10 Navy JSFs
and maybe a few Super Hornets

[Paladin327]

These ideas are good, I like the F-14 idea, and add helicopters to the carrier, like a sea king, sea hawk, or a CH-53 that carries like 8 troops to battle and possibly like an assault ship with like helicopters, harriers and troops in hover craft and im just talkin on and on and on arnt i?

[phyco1942]

nlln have u got any screen shots of the air craft nlln

[juanmanuelsanchez]

if you mean ingame the carrier is not coded and will not be in V5. Sorry now if you want to see how it looks like you can go to our tech tree there is a 3d view of it.

See ya !

[Paladin327]

I gots 2 more ideas, an aurorora model, but slower, and doesnt have one big assed bomb, it has 4 torpedoes, and if sea mines make it in, an E-2C hawkeye plane that detects stealth. also, how about a thing where you can select what planes/heicopters you want on the carrier

[Paladin327]

how about for the AF gen's carrier, since he doesnt focus on the navy, how about naval king raptors? hey? hey? hey?

[Marcjs]

u know i dont think there adding a aircraft carrier anyway
