Help Please

[Wagger]

First of all I would like to thank everyone for a fantastic fun night. II/JG27 had a great time flying with great people.
Now for the real reason of this post.  The old saying, There is no such thing as a stupid question, applies here.

I have been assigned by my squadron commander to get stats for last night to post for our squadron and other units in the axis.  Now the events log has been very helpful, but I need some clarification on a couple of points. 

1.  Are sorties listed per plane or per group.  We had 10 pilots with 11 sorties. (Here is the situation. Took off with 10 pilots and all returned to base and landed safetly. 9 refueled/rearmed and took back off. Now should there be 2 sorties or 19 sorties.

2.  Can a stats category for number of aircraft lost be added to squadron stats.

3.  Can a stats category for fratricide be added to the squadron stats.

Well, not per plane, but per pilot. You have viewed the logs?
You should see your squad listed in the logs.

1. If they all rearmed it would be the same sortie.
2. Not sure what your asking. 
3. Kill shooter is off. If you shoot down a squadie it will give you that kill and it will show in the logs.

Now I just need to delete that entry where you shot me down.

After checking maybe this is my problem on sorties.  If after someone lands with their squadron they exit their plane and up again as a gunner on another plane does that count as  a sortie.

I understand kill shooter being off.  What I was wondering is can a category for fratricide be added.  This can be used as a teaching tool as to the importance of Situational Awareness.  In final tally for events it can also show how much effect we possibly had on our own mission results.

Planes lost category by type.

And please don't erase that kill.  They come few and far between.  Besides without my glasses I can't tell who it was that I shot down.  And you are?

It will say they landed. Then it will say they joined someone as a gunner, so I guess it would be two different sorties. If you track your own squads stats it is up to you if you want to count is as a 'sortie'. As far as the log parser goes that is academic.

What I was wondering is can a category for fratricide be added.  This can be used as a teaching tool as to the importance of Situational Awareness.

I suppose they (forHIM and 68Lurch manage that end of things) could add that in, but we don't have plans to add that in.

Planes lost category by type.

No, just type used by plane type in the Summary of the event.

Thanks for the help.

Also, if any of your pilots disco'ed and they re-up, I believe it will show a second sortie

[Wagger]

Never thought of that one.  Buy the way if you do disco who is it that you check with to get your life back so you can reenter the fight. Is it the CIC or who?  And what is the channel in the buffer you use to contact them?

[gyrene81]

The answer to your disco issue can be found here:

http://ahevents.org/fso-related/fso-rules.html

- Anyone who crashes on take off or has a mishap may reup without asking but only in the first 15 minutes of the frame, and only if you have not been engadged by the enemy.

- Fields close 15 minutes after the hour except for discos.

- Discos may reup up to 30 minutes after the hour (if there is no enemy engagment).

In some cases it has been either the CiC (on whatever channel has been designated for the event) or the Host CM of the event in channel 200 that has been contacted for re-up permission beyond the initial 15 minute limit.

[daddog]

You have to ask the hosting CM. The guy in the blue text. You can tune to 202 text and ask. CiC's don't (unless they are a CM) have the tools to open or close fields. More than likely the CiC would just point you to the hosting CM.

Thanks. Thats where my confusion came from in one of the snap shots events.  One person said contact CIC and one said CM.
