Change planes mid-mission

[Muff_Huggar]

As I understand (being a newcomer to the series), you can't fly off on a mission, return to base to get refueled and rearmed and then fly off again. I wondered if it would be possible to have a new fully loaded plane spawn after you land that you could just jump into and and re-engage in the attack?

For multiplayer missions, see "Replenish or Change the Planes Available In a Multiplayer Mission", on pg. 115 of the mission editor manual.

I wasn't specific enough. I was thinking of Single Player. One of the reasons is that in Flying Circus you can only have two bombs. So that limits the damage you can do to some ground targets. I get around that by flying with unlimited ammo, which is really unrealistic. I guess I could stay with unlimited ammo and just return to base once I've dropped the two bombs and 800 rounds to simulate refuel/rearm. I am way way way too crappy to fly online, by the way.

In single player, no at that moment.

 

For what you want, you have to do a deathmatch mission, and play it as a multiplayer mission that you host on your computer.

You’ll have four bombs with the Sopwith Camel soon, and a hell of a lot more with the Brisfit and Halberstadt in the final release

Certain people like to whine and moan that re-arm/re-fuel isn't needed...and it isn't really.

However it would be of realistic use in some cases, even in WWII for the Po-2 re-armed and refueled in minutes all night long.
