Yesterday I drove my tank to the map room in town, stopped and exited. I got a you crashed message even though I had stopped on the brick pavement. Are we not able to get safe landings in town?
-
Was the "End Sortie" text green?
-
No it wasn't but the base wasn't flashing
-
I spawned a 262 at an airfield. It was one of the taxiway spawns. I didn't start engines or move the jet, when I hangared I got a ditch with loss of perks. Don't hardly seem right ya know!
-
Which airfield and spawn point?
Aircraft should spawn to the runway or hanger.

On some of the Huge Airfields you wont actually spawn to the runway but next to it. I remember seeing HiTech post about it somewhere.

Thanks, I haven't run across that yet.

Found it!

I hadn't considered this, i'll either put a safe pad on them or move them to a runway.

That is what so many people don't know after years of playing ah2 where you always spawn on a runway. Some ah3 spawns are not on the runway.
Also note the small airport ends of the runway may not be a safe tower-out position. I think it is just the big pad end of the runway but not sure.

I don't mind not spawning on a runway but I do think the spot you spawn onto should be safe to tower from without it being a ditch.

I just got a ditch when ending sortie on the taxiway in the TA. Is towering out on the taxiway now not a successful landing?
I have film and screen shot if needed.

Some of the aircraft spawns (directional) at the bases set you up to takeoff in way you hit a gun position on takeoff, or some have you hitting a barracks or hanger. If I select "NW" I would assume it was a standard direction for takeoff and no obstructions would be in the way. That is not always the case. :headscratch:

On the huge airfield, some of the spawns will spawn you, sort of, next to the runway and not directly on it. It is designed that way.
