No runways at airfields in Karelia 2
« on: February 14, 2015, 12:40:53 AM »
Hey, we landed multiple aircraft at A1 in the FSO event that counted as ditches as there were no runways to land on.  Wont these count as landings?  I also have film of Shakey61 going to the rearm pad and getting hung up on an invisible gun emplacement, shouldn't this also count as a good landing?

Yes  if you landed in a hanger but we didn't realize that until we ditched and told all others to make sure they were in a hangar at the V  Base,  but there are no hangars to pull into at the Airfields

If this is the Karelia map made by Kanttori I think I recall him saying the dirt fields are 'all runway' for historical accuracy. If you're talking about MA maps then IDK.

Karelia dirt airfields don't have runways as MrRipley said. If you get a ditch inside the area surrounded by hangars, it's a glitch in the settings.

Rip, there's no Karelia on MA, just FYI.

Field A1 has a "Y" shaped dirt runway. There is a re-arm pad at the end of the main leg, and one on the left fork. Many players, myself included, landed safely on the dirt runway.

Not being certain of anything but the rearm pad, I parked there when I towered.

I had to turn my graphics up a notch to see the dirt runway.

No field should be hard for anyone to see if game is set to lowest graphics setting.  If that is the case, that is a map maker error and should be corrected.

Grass and dirt runways are hard to see, no error there :)
