This is the version from my notebook, and not heavily tested.  I used this to start identifying aircraft numbers (then discovered that is easier to do with Arena Settings...anyway...)

All I've really done is change your P51 into an F4U-1.  Other changes may have gotten included accidentally.  Use the (Test) mission to fly the F4U, and use diff ti figure out where the change was made.  Very near to there you can set up how many friends you want flying alongside...  :)

<edit>
Ending up with a PT on the runway was a highlight of testing.  Findoug out I could put a B17/24/take your pick up against the P51 was an eye opener...great way to test your buff gunning.  There are some bugs, but this is going to be an awesome addition.

OK, puck, since you're letting the cat out of the bag* -- which entries in that file control the planes selected, the number of planes, and so forth?

I've still got some work to do, but I'll try to post a primer tonight when I get home from work, SWMBO ack permitting.

<edit>
What I REALLY want to do is find out where skill factors are coded.  That's going to be the hard part, mostly because I don't know if they're even there.  I have most of the easy stuff figured out.  Pyro, wanna throw some hints at me?  :D

AI skill factors are not there.
It contains load out, number of planes, formation types, and routes. What to do on route.

Thanks...you just saved me several hours of trial and error.  May have to take this afternoon off to nail down the rest of it (96 airframes to catalog...)

Seeing two AI planes fighting each other was quite interesting. Actually I saw a better fight than most of the time in the MA's ;)
It ended up low and slow on the deck. Green AI was steadily gaining, but did't shoot until only 20 (!) yards away. Then it flew right through the enemy plane without any sign of collision damage. After a few more maneuvres my artificial teammate hit the water and I got a proxy kill on hit  :lol

I think this is going to be one of the best additions to the game, it's gonna give you all the practice you want in learning a new plane, other then going into the MA or TA and doing it there.  I think alot of people are going to use it to improve there bomber gunner skills as well. 

Plus this will give the new people starting out a chance to get use to flying the planes before they head out to the MA.

One other thing, will there be the ability to use the A.I for GV vs GV fighting, or even GV vs aircraft, like using the Flak against aircraft?

Text works.

Gosh, with all this being done I should just write a bash script to create mission files.
