Static airplane second query

[Ala13_Kokakolo]

I am trying to create a mission in which an airbase is attacked. If I populated the base with ju52 (airplanes) they have gunners and they attack. If I populated them with static (but linked) objects, strafing them has no effect. I have been flying missions where I attack airdromes and I can strafe landed planes with no problems. What do I have to do to achieve that result? Cheers.

Set durability value for the static plane block to something like 500-1500 and they will explode like in Chuck Norris movie. Static planes will not have active gunners tho.

Ok Cheers. I will try tonight. I am trying to create a mission with tanks against atillery... I am running into A LOT of trouble. This FMB is the least intuitive thing in the WORLD. It is exactly the same as my ex, whatever I plan, it came out the opposite I intended.

If you get a chance take a look through the shared groups section here or look at some smaller missions to get an idea of how they work. Somewhere I remember that there has to be a height set for artillery to engage. tagets

From pg. 54 of Prangster's Mission Building Guide:

 

"Guns can only shoot at targets they have a line of sight to. By raising the Attack Area to 500 metres the guns can now see the area they need to fire in to."

Best wishes, and roses, for those of us still looking...
