Why not ban?  http://taw.stg2.de/pilot.php?name=666GIAP_Chimango why does flying continue? 

 

When you are banned, and 10 min after mission start, the opposite team has players number advantage, you can still fly. It's a kind of balance for known players number problem.

Yep, there is still room for improvements. The closer to the front line you are the lower probability of capturing is. Added to my "to-do" list.

[AlphaMale] Cause i got a call from Rodinu! "Come my HSU, it's 16 of them" An hour later, 6 LW planes were part of the soviet landscape!  If i had a FW you'd all be dead[/AphaMale] ?

What is it with people not knowing how to record or take screenshots? its terrible to look at

[Aero*Bohemio]

Haha true; in my case it's lazyness...cause  being an informative screenshot i just take it with the cellphone as is faster to share with my squad mates over our whatsapp group, it wasn't taken for the forum...but JG8r post gave me an idea ?

 

PS. even if is not great quality, KG200_Achilleus video it's amazing, first time i see that in il2, it made me remember this:

Yes! Precisely, I was very confused when my gunner said “target destroyed” without firing a shot and my bomb didn’t hit the ground target. I only figured it out after I landed, looked at the mission log, and saw the 100% damage I dealt you in one second. 
 

That’s some dedicated target defence from you.

It happened just about a sec before a “bomb” hit your Pe2 from bellow...;)

and just before that, i saw a black torpedo come on me and i thought for a sec...”pfff it was close”...

i guess it was the bomb time delay or the lag that make 1-2 sec to boom...

lol

look from my “point of view”...:)

Hi All, I hate to bring up a subject that has been covered many times before, partially due to the rules changing over time.  Tanks.  Do the stats matter regarding tanks available.  I know it's no longer a win condition on it's own, but this evening we took the last tank icon off the Axis side of the map and the stats show allies have destroyed 814 of 800 Axis tanks available.  The new map rolls and spawns a new Tank icon, with the stats showing 814 destroyed of 800 available? How can they spawn tanks if none are available? I would fully understand if their depot built tanks and their available tanks increased but that didn't happen here. 

Please help me understand?

To expand on that question,

@=LG=Kathon On/after mission #201, the Axis ran out of tanks, 814/800. Next mission, #202, a new tank column spawned.

Maybe fixes are for the next campaign? Anyways, thanks as always!

 

 

[AKA_Relent]

Kathon has mentioned there was a bug in the script.  I.e. it was generating the tank column then checking the # tanks destroyed against the max, instead of checking the counts first.  So he’s aware, but it’s not clear when it will be fixed.

you had 3 guys on you that have seen you disconnecting when we started shooting at you, that excuse is pathetic, not like you took off about 3 min before and you had things not running    not even close, but surely i'll try that exploit next time, i learn new exploit every day from smart guys like you! enjoyable.

and admins, why dont we add that ALT-F4 trick in the manual too? that could save the last life to a lot of people!

thx for very good news

[2/JG26_rudidlo]

Hi,
can someone explain me how airfield supply really works?
Before Moscow_North #208 mission map, Kalinin airfield was damaged 63%.
As I read in manual, Ju-52 supply airfield by 7%. I flew with my friend 5 times to supply this airfield from airfield which wasn't damaged. I expected Kalinin will be restored to 0% damage, if it wouldn't be attacked.
How surprised I have been when I found that in Moscow_North #209 Kalinin was damaged to 64%. So the supply doesn't work? I have noticed only two times during the mission that there were soviet planes above airfield. One was shot down by AAA, the second one was too high.

So the supplying works or not?

[-=PHX=-SuperEtendard]

 

@1stCL/rudidlo There are two stats for the airfields, damage level and supply level.

If an airfield has damage it will "heal" inbetweeen missions using supply level. If an airfield has 0% supply it wont be able to heal damage anymore. With the transport planes you increase the supply %, so there what you did was increase the airfield supply level to 70%, then in the next mission it used some of that to reduce inflicted damage. The problem is that most likely it was attacked during the mission and the damage increased, then it would have healed and go down to 64%. I don't know how much damage do airfields  repair in between missions.

@-=PHX=-SuperEtendard Thank you for explaining it to me. I've looked into the manual and there is not mentioned difference between damage and supply level. Just the note you can resupply airfield damaged more than 0% from airfield which is damaged not more than 40%.

Yes

[Aero*Bohemio]

TAW admins, for future editions i suggest it should be forbidden for pilots from an active squad registered for one specific team, to create another alias and fly for the opposite team specially when that team outnumbers the other one like now 19v5 or like the other day 16v1. The so called "to balance numbers" doesn't apply here at all.

 

In my opinion if you are resgistered in a squad and you fly missions in the team your squad registered, you should stay in that team for the whole campaign and if not, at least stay there for the whole map, and only can switch sides when that map is over. I don't like people checking how we fly, what we do, the info we share in chat, and then they go jumping from team to team every other mission

PS. hey @SCG_FeuerFliegen ; how does it feel to be shot down by a guy from your same squad (SCG_Gustav_Hagel) who changes to LW even when they outnumber 21v7 VVS and waits for you over his AF/depot? https://taw.stg2.de/pilot_sortie.php?id=47261&name=SCG_FeuerFliegen

Hi, 

The Kalinin airfield was damaged to 64% during the mission #208 so it's damage level was increased from 63% to 64% ( one hangar was destroyed by Pe-2 ser.87 so it wasn't too high).

Hi, @=LG=Kathon, 

as @-=PHX=-SuperEtendard explained, there are supply levels and damage levels, but it's not clear  when you read the manual. There are mentioned just restriction about damage levels for airports from which you can supply and airports which you can supply.

You are correct. The website manual is a bit outdated but if you look through the change log, I believe it says the AFs cannot be repaired during the current mission if it had been attacked (even if a single hangar has been destroyed and the defending team supplied it in the current mission, damage to the AF will still increase). Also, as pointed out earlier, when you supply the AF, you only increase its supply levels which, in turn, will be used for repairing purposes. Supply missions by air will also not work for AFs that have more than 85% damage I believe.
