What's going on 'ere then?

[Gooseh]

Just been testing skin assignments for PWCG 16.3.1. 

 

I Edited Escadrille 2 recon squad to utilise the Frenchy style British planes I made. This unit flies FE2b, then Sopwith Strutter (2 seat) RE8 then DH4. 

 

1st March 1917 squad is assigned fe2B and Strutter...all is as it should be.

 

Move on to 1st May 17, and we should have Strutter and RE8 and for some reason, I now have a Strutter B instead of the 2 seat version?

 

In the plane file 2 seat Strutter is coded 102120 and the Strutter B (single seat scout version) is coded 102121. So they are different planes completely.

 

Esc 2 planes are listed in the squadroninfo file as such:

            Plane
            {
                Id = 102131;   FE2b
                StartDate = 01/08/1915;
                EndDate = 30/04/1917;
            }
            Plane
            {
                Id = 102120;   Strutter 2 seat
                StartDate = 15/02/1917;
                EndDate = 15/08/1917;
            }
            Plane
            {
                Id = 102160;   RE8
                StartDate = 01/04/1917;
                EndDate = 15/04/1918;
            }
            Plane
            {
                Id = 102110;   DH4
                StartDate = 15/10/1917;
                EndDate = 01/12/1918;
            }

 

So there is no single seat Strutter listed there....so how is it appearing? Where is it coming from? Any ideas?
