Waypoint touches land................
Why????
Lets add some increased awareness into naval operations and disable waypoint touches land and allow it, if course not changed, to run ashore and beach itself...
Whatdya think

I think unsavory people would go around beaching CV's all over.
-
true...But it would be pretty cool.

Can we get the ability to emplace land mines of enemy .... and friendly.... airstrips too? That could be.... what was the word....oh yeah.....fun?

A carrier has a complement of officers who's sole job is to keep the ship from running into the ground. And a screen of ships all doing the same thing as well.
I don't recall a single instance of an accidently beached Carrier in history. Could be wrong though.

No, but I seem to remember when they were towing the BB North Carolina into it's position as a museum on the river at Wilmington, it got away from them and took out a dockside restaurant? Or maybe I'm thinking about a different ship?
Halsey managed to get part of his screen sunk in a typhoon too, now that I think about it.
But, CV's too easy prey in the game now. Need not make it harder on them.

Halsey sailed into 2 typhoons.
But I'm not gonna get into Halsey.
Read "The Battle of Leyte Gulf" by Thomas J. Cutler. Thats a pretty good insight into how things can go terribly wrong through the slightest of mistakes or misunderstandings.
