How to see advanced setting descriptions and how to set default altitudes?

[Skipper-]

1. Can I set default mission altitudes, so that I do not have to manually set every mission?

 

 

 

2. Why can't I see the descriptions of the advanced settings like in Requiem's tutorial video (link here and screenshot below )?

The descriptions now display when you hover over the parameter name.

Thanks, didn't spot that.

Is there any way to make the middle section with the numbers shrink and enlarge dynamically according to the window size?

I figured out how to fix the UI to 1920x1080 but how do I set standard altitudes? I cannot find that it in any of the config files.

Thanks

There are no standart altitudes, AFAIK, the altitudes differ depending on the aircraft type and mission type. For example, for fighters you have high altitude patrols from 3k upwards, and low altitude patrols in around 1500m. But it is not like in the game's career mode, where you are always flying the same altitudes. Which is in my opinion the much better way, as the IL career mode completely misses flexibility. You are flying missions in the clouds, where it doesn't make any sense. In PWCG the missions are usually below or at least 1k above thick clouds, and if they are not, you can customize your mission altitude. However sometimes the clouds altitude changes then, too.

What Yogi said.  Altitudes are in a range, a wide range for fighter patrols, a very narrow one for dive bombers, etc.
