I looked the list over  and  see  a drop off  of many aircraft  in game.   There  are players that maybe don't have all of the DLC   so including some in there  might be nice.  Several planes that used to be available for most sets have been curtailed to less than half the sets,  sometimes 3 sets.   The  removal of all the planes is going  to be a sore spot  with  many.  I was surprised to not see the duck in game,  I looked over the list,  it's only available for 3 out of 15 planesets. Duck Disappears when all of the Russian Aircraft go missing . 
 

In addition to the lack of many  planes,  imagine if you will the irony of playing a campaign  on the Moscow Map,   and there are no Russian Planes to be flown, except for the Li2 for paras or supply ?   Now that  is lunacy.  There are many   that will wonder at the lack of Russian AC after Set 8,  they all disappear.   Now I don't fly the allied side  but If I did and I   might not be happy at the lack of Russian Aircraft in game,  to be all replaced by western  allies aircraft.  You know, the war in the East did not end when Normandy landings happened.  There  was still almost a year of hard combat in the east that got  the victory over the German Army,  that's where the vast majority of German soldiers died, not the western front.   Please put back  several Aircraft,   give the Russians their IL2's and all of the Yak Fighters they like,  and the PE2  is a good attacker as well.

Plan is to go back to map specific RPS we had some time ago, so no western front planes on eastern front maps and vice versa.

So  if the maps  started with  eastern front, say  Kuban.  If after 8 planeset changes would a winner be declared and planeset 9 would then start a new western campaign ?   When say   the  western campaign started, set 9,  would the same happen for those maps, declare a winner after 8 planesets if 1 isn't already won ?.     Also,   a slight  question  on planes.  Why limit the  HS129,  it served for awhile in the east   and also,  if the Mosquito is at temps and front airfields,  would it not be fair to have the ME-410 there as well instead of just the rear ?  The mosquito should be in the same cat., both have good firepower, the molins 57, that was on 17 planes total and never flew over the continent aside,  they are very similar and firepower is matched

No. The planeset just rolls over until the map is won.

Like said, the sets go roughly along the DLCs.

Yes, this was an error. The 410 should be in front fields too.

There was a hiccup in the RPS definition. Should be up shortly.

Server is now running separated plane and tank sets for Eastern and Western front maps. There is possibility to go into map-specific sets too, if needed. Sets info updated on stats site.

Good afternoon!
When it appears on the server, it says that I jumped out of a serviceable vehicle. Most likely it was, but it was by chance when I started flying in a VR helmet, due to accidentally pressing the ejection button in the blind. That was about a year and a half ago. Now I can't fly on the server even after completing the supply flight. Is it possible to fix this, remove my ban? Because I have been loving and flying on your server for many years. The nickname in the game is - 712th.

For anyone reading this, the issue was that the supply flight was done to an airfield that already had full supply. It needs to be done to an airfield that is in need of supply.

Thinking about adding stuff to tank gameplay:
1. Capturing the CP would enable the capturing side to open a forward base at the CP. The capturing side needs to drive specially named AA vehicle(s) to enable spawn, RRR, and defences at the CP.
2. After CP has been captured, it would be possible to continue the attack to disable the enemy's frontline tank spawns for added bonus in frontline advancement calculations or some other effect (perhaps forcing mission rotation).
3. If there are enemy player tanks within a certain radius of a tank spawn (frontline and forward base), players will no longer be able to spawn from there.
4. Possibility to repair or destroy bridges by driving an "engineer" AA vehicle next to the bridge and waiting for some time.

 

What type of defences should the forward base have? Should the defences respawn automatically some time after they're destroyed or should players take care of respawning them by supplying the base? Should the tanks at the forward base spawn be restocked automatically or should players take care of the restocking?

 

The frontline tank spawns currently have only the RRR vehicle. What kind of defences/structures should the frontline tank spawns have with these changes?

S! @LLv34_Temuri

 

I apologize for being up to date with all the features of your FVP server, but have the features you had in mind been implemented in the meantime, or are they still in the planning stage?

I wrote a Python script to more or less automatically extract and create RPS in the style of how it used to be in the webpage, here are the images for both fronts and the Python script for generating them:

These haven't been implemented.

Thank you. Immediately noticed that gap with the Yak-9. Need to correct it.

How can an enemy pilot jump out over your runway and still be healthy and not captured in the statistics?

The chance to get captured is a function of distance to the frontline(nearest point to the side who bailed out / ditched). You can bail 100km from the border and manage to get away, but it is highly unlikely. Distance to airfields or other target objectives doesn't affect this currently.

As I understand it, you can drop bombs and jump out. You'll only get a reduced coefficient. If this is the case, it's a strange decision.

What  is the reason that the HS-129  is  only available for a very limited # of sets  ?  It was in action in the eastern front in spring of 42 ?     Long before the hurricanes in russian service had  any  armament larger than the .303's

What is happening to the map? Why has it changed several times and then returned to the map that has been unchanged for three weeks?

Who can tell you? is there only one card valid on this project? Will there be no variety?

We haven't made any changes to the rotation. Maps that are in the rotation are:
- Kuban

- Stalingrad
- Moscow
- Rheinland

We've been flying on the same Rheinland card for a month, and as soon as the card changes, it's switched back to Rheinland. So I'm saying goodbye to this project.

Don't. Finnish server is the best server in this game.

There has been some problems with the latest RPS change, that has caused some crashes that made the system skip maps. They are being fixed.

Yes, and there are 3 people online!

The FAQ  page with the mission time remaining, etc   says  set  10.   If you go into the map, we do not have set 10,  but we have set 5 as the IAR is still in there,   109G2,  190A3  and no HS129.    I'm still not sure what the problem you have with the HS129 being used much earlier,   wasn't it deployed to the Eastern Front in early spring of 42 ?    For a fact, the  Hurricanes had 303 MG's only until dec42/Jan 43 at the earliest before the Russians started putting 2  20mm cannons and 2 hmg's on them.    Seems very suspect in your application of when planes are in game.  You should use historical dates,   or at a minimum,  not delay AC past the date they were being used in combat !

I like the whole idea of separating the maps and plane sets.  Hopefully we'll see the addition of maps too.  It has to be a lot of work for you, so just want to say thanks.  Just keep working through the bugs.  Cheers!
