No Ditch For Landing at Strats
« on: October 14, 2014, 12:26:47 PM »
Title says it all.  Landed at Strats three times now....fuel farm, hq, and ammo.   Stopped on pavement intact.  Ditch.   Makes no sense.   Can we change this?

Why? Did someone tell you strats were bases and their roads were runways?

Apparently you aren't but I still think this is a rather useless wish. Tell me what it accomplishes.  :D

A "runway" object has to be assigned to a field #

Strat objects are assigned to countries or zones within countries.

I think it's just a question of tile being used. Until very recently (last year), we had been able to land sucessfully at the HQ. Since the HQ artwork was redone, you can't land there anymore because the new town there doesn't anymore have the same 'pavement/concrete' as towns or bases do have

You worried about score or something? Just bail after your package lands and re-launch.

The AH3 HQ picture Waffle posted didn't have anywhere to land anything. I wonder if AH2 complaints at this juncture are over things that may not exist in the new version? That picture doesn't look anything like AH2. If AH3 will be the next release, and AH2 as is, is stable, maybe a little irritating. Why expend energy needed for the next version release HTC doesn't have to spare with it's ultra tiny development team?

Personally I try to land on the big factory building just to see if I can pull it off.

If so, he's fighting the wrong battle, as ditching doesn't impact K/D at all.
