Carrier Task Force ATO
-
Hi,
I’m currently flying a Korean Strong DPRK Iron Fortress campaign. A couple of hours ago american reinforcements arrived at the szene. The carrier group is visable on the map and it’s squadrons can be seen at the top of the Order of Battle. By now the AI didn’t use them and I’m not able to setup flights for the F18s or F14s. It Ends always with a “Bad Timing” message.
Is there a Workaround to setup the carrier squadrons correctly? I simply want to Task AI flights for the carrier squadrons not to do some carrier ops myself.Cheers

Maybe a Picture is better than words. Inside MC the 3 carrier squads are not assigned to a airbase. I tried to relocate them to the Kennedy carrier group but after doing so all flight plans from carrier based squads started in the lower left Corner of the theater.
Any ideas? Or are is it to early for the F14/F18s to operate on Day2 (carrier not in the right Position)…. -
Not sure about the exact issue with the carrier, but i’ve noticed that the reinforcement squadrons might show on the list sometime before their actual activation time set in the campaign files. But you can’t task them until the given time.

There were issues with the carrier and the squadrons assigned to them, as you found. I fixed them and now you should be good to go with this file.

Drop the file into your \Falcon BMS 4.32\Data\Campaign\Korea3 folder and overwrite. If you wish, backup up the save1.cam file first.
If you receive a bad timing issue, advance the takeoff time about 15-20 minutes. Make sure if you make multiple flights from the carrier of the 3 different squadrons that their takeoff times are at least a few minutes apart.
You have to start the campaign over. One thing I found weird also, is the carrier and squadrons are present at the beginning of the campaign but you weren’t seeing them til later??
Iron Fortress is tough…Good Luck!!
