Version 2.40 of Gunship! Tactical Reference improves the Custom Platoon Builder dialog by adding the names of the units and platoon you're building (see picture below), rather than your having to remember what # goes with which unit/vehicle/platoon. You can also type in a new unit/vehicle #, then click 'Refresh' and instantly see the name of it, to make sure you typed the right #:



Above, I've created a transport platoon consisting of an Osprey and Chinook, accompanied by a Kiowa with .50cal cannon as fire cover. Since it's a flyable platoon, I can pilot the Kiowa and fire its cannon.

Here's the main screen:

Brilliant work WB!

Ah, thanks. ltns, BTW. Well, a few years ago I got out of gaming and modding because some other things took precedence, but now I have some time off, and am playing Gunship! again, and improving my tools some. It's been fun.

I've uploaded version 2.51 of Gunship! Tactical Reference Browser. It adds the ability to reconfigure the CH47 Chinook's armor strength, weapons, and infantry on-board. You can also reconfigure the OH58D Kiowa's armor strength and weapons:



Also, the readme.txt now explains better about the Kiowa. The Kiowa was always in the stock game but was not included in any platoons. You can, though, click the 'Build Custom Platoon' button in TacRef to add it to a platoon as vehicle 59. When you do that, TacRef also corrects the top speed and acceleration factor to be more accurate, but doesn't change the weapons loadout, which, in the stock game, consists only of 2 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles. You can, though, reconfigure the Kiowa's armor strength and weapons using the new screen above.
