I was wondering if there is a way to limit the amount of static airplanes at the airbases from the map you fly on?
Sometimes the airbase is filled up with way too many static planes, I would love to adjust or limit that.
Anybody knows a way how to do that?

Thanks in advance.
My very best regards, Kodiak.

Lowering graphics settings I believe limits / or has no static jets

Each airbase has an airfield ini file that has the parking locations for the jets - so that can be altered for each base potentially.

If you have the mission editor, there is an option to turn off static airplanes at airfields.

Oops, I have the missioneditor but forgot about the option of turning off static planes, lol.

I posted this also on the CA forum and Wrench told me about the option of editing the airfields ini files.
That is the solution I was looking for.

Here is his quote :"1) remove the airliner's aircraft folders via a rename or deletion
2) extract ALL airfield inis from relevant terrain cat, and adjust ParkingChance= percentage down
3) Options --> Graphics ---> GroundObjects --> adjust down"

Just so everybody has the knowledge now also.

Thanks to everybody!
My best regards,Kodiak. wave
