Am I Missing Something Here?
« on: March 24, 2011, 02:04:36 AM »
  Tonight I wanted to up some AR234's, but it says I don't have enough points.  Are they charging per plane (drone) too?  I tried just one plane and no drones and it still says that I don't have enough.

They are charged per drone.

But I don't know why it did not let you take a single up.

Right, that's what I don't get.

That was about my 3rd time trying to get one of those planes.  First I tried formation, then no formation, then formation again.  Then I said to hell with it for now.

When you click it, it'll give you the message. Click no drones, then click 234 again.

regardless if he had enough perk points or not, would it not still show the Ar234 in the hangar ?

he has the Ar 234 highlighted but it is showing a B17 .......

It's what you get when you select a model you don't have enough perks for.  Cursor stays on perk name but you can't see or drool over its 3D model.

The perk price shown on the clipboard is a snapshot at the time you enter the hangar.  Perhaps the arena numbers changed significantly while you were in the hangar and the price of a single 234 went up enough that you couldn't get it.

I just landed a sortie with B-17's.  The AR-234 image never displayed in the hanger.

I tried this again today.  This time I was allowed the single Ar-234, but not the formation.  I understand that one. ( I don't got enough for all three)

Could this be an error on my behalf.  Absolutley.  But it does not show the plane you want to get, even if you're too broke to get it.  That's why you see that B-17, after I was trying to get the AR.  Seems like we should be able to see what we can't afford to fly, lol.
