Hi

I have searched on this but couldn't find anything relating to it.

Is there any way to set up the free flight missions to start on the ground?

Obviously, I understand that I could just make a mission using the builder but I generally don't have the patience for that.

Is there a setting that can be tweaked to achieve this?

Thanks!

Use the "Cross Country" in the single player missions, it's takeoff from W England, as a RAF plane, but no AA so you can pick any plane (incl German/Italian ones) without being shot to pieces. It's a ground start.

In the previous versions of CloD the Blenheim in this mission respawn with engines OFF, now respawn with engine ON.

I try edit the mission file, but only when ticket "Start parked" or someting I get engines OFF, but plane dont respawn on the strip, respawn on some area far.

How I get: plane respawn in strip, whit engines OFF (like in old versions)?

Sokol1, When you tick the "start parked" you do just that, your aircraft spawns in a parking area where it will need to be taxied to the strip.

The only way to start on the runway itself is to spawn with the engines one (perhaps some scripting could help but I don't know any).

The parking area is not far from the runway, just start her up and taxi!
