After I follow the directions of creating a mission, how do I know in BoS which mission is the one I created? I don't recall getting to choose a name for the mission.


The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.

It's called <name of your pilot>-<date>-<type of missions> i.e.:

Hmmm, that was created and it is visible in my missions folder as a .eng and .mission file. Only when I click on Missions when in-game, it does not appear there.

Does it open in the Mission Editor? Maybe try creating another one from a different career pilot. If it still doesn't work, you could bring it up in the Official forums. Pat posts there and PWCG has it's own sub-forum.

Hah! Solved it. First, I chose the wrong planes I owned. Then, I started getting the error that my squadron does not fly a plane I own. So I chose a starting date that included a squadron with one of my planes available.

Thanks for the prompt responses! smile

By the way, what do you select if you like starting your plane's engine instead of it already running?

Not an option, unfortunately. frown

IIRC, I think there is no start parked option due to the difficulty of dynamically setting up AI taxing. At least I'm pretty sure that's what Patrick stated in the official BoS PWCG subforum.

That's pretty much the case, yes.

Makes sense. Too bad, would have been a fun option if feasible. smile
