Make sure you have set the player, and be sure that any units placed, basically anything with AI in it like a vehicle, plane, or ship is linked.

Anything not linked wont show ingame.

Lastly be sure to save the mission name with missionname.mission and save it in the

C:\Steam\SteamApps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad\data\Missions

 

From another post in this section:

Try this:

1. Close IL-2.

2. Delete file mtreecache.eng in your games folder under /data.

3. Open IL-2.

 

 

Also from the Mission editor manual page 192:

 

Mission Start Problems
Cannot Find a Mission in the IL-2 Sturmovik Singleplayer Missions List
If you save a mission but you cannot find it in the IL-2 Sturmovik singleplayer missions list,
check the following:
• The mission name in the "Name" field of the Mission Properties Dialog (pg. 208) may
be the default ("My Mission") or it may be the name of an old mission that you copied
to create the new mission. The Name field value is shown in the IL-2 Sturmovik
singleplayer missions list. If you leave the Name field blank, the mission list shows the
mission file name without the .mission suffix.
• You may not own the version of IL-2 Sturmovik with the map being used in the mission.
• A singleplayer mission may have "Deathmatch" selected in the "Mission Type" drop
down list of the mission properties. Select "Single" instead.
• You may need to refresh the IL-2 Sturmovik cache files that store mission names.

To refresh the cache files, do the following:
1. Close IL-2 Sturmovik and the Mission Editor.
2. In your games folder, under the data subfolder, delete the files ctreecache.eng
and mtreecache.eng.

Important! Be careful not to delete other IL-2 Sturmovik files.
The cache files are rebuilt when you start IL-2 Sturmovik.

Note: If you save an existing mission under a new name. You can avoid the cache
problem by changing the Name field in the Mission Properties Dialog before you save
the mission.
