A lot of coding going on, and very little typing and posting pics here to peak our interest in this thread. That is a good thing right??? But it just doesn't feel right??? confused

We took 2 weeks off at Christmas for the first time in a very long time. There are just 2 of us, and we are flat out trying to just finish it then we can test and post pics and videos whatever. You are right it doesn't feel right we are knackered beyond belief.

Pol, just you and Winder managing a project like this is a little beyond amazing. Micro$oft probably has a whole team on theirs, and WOFF is spectacular, even though you are limited by their 20 year old code! Good on you two!

That's why I try to be understanding with the bugs. It's a whole lot easier to criticize code than it is to write it! Besides, you guys respond so well and so quickly.

Hang in there, my card will be ready!

How much longer do we have to wait! cuss And hurry up with that score Matt! Something melancholy yet dramatic and uplifting, sombre then joyous. Lots of minor keys with augmented and diminished inflections and ....

Oh I'm sorry, forgive me. I'm just getting antsy. My apologies ....

Take your time guys. Just hurry up please or I'll do this .... bananadance

Here's some more of the features coming in WOFF BH&H2 to keep you going. Getting there...


Ace Aircraft slots (3) are now allocated by Rank - either from a "Rank file" (if existing) or as interpolated from the Aces Rank in the main ace file


AI squads 'regular pilots' now use their three slots of aircraft differently from mission to mission, and is rule based. e.g. Esc 62 (a dual role Self- Escort squad) will sometimes be seen using Strutters or Fighters depending on the mission!


Both Ace Rank and Ace Aircraft (including skin specification) historical Database files now supported, in order to track Ace Rank and Aircraft over time and allocate these as per historical research.
If an Ace is using an Aircraft from this Aces database, it is indicated in the main campaign GUI - "Active Airman" - next to the Ace's aircraft type by a '(*)'.


Player can now elect to override the aircraft allocations that are normally based on the AI pilots Rank. This is done in the Aircraft Inventory/Workshops interface accessed from the main Campaign GUI.
Overrides are visible in the main campaign GUI - "Active Airman" - and are indicated by a '(!)' next to the AI Pilot's aircraft type.
The player can only override normal AI Pilots - NOT ACES.


Player can now elect to override his own aircraft allocation that is normally based on his Rank provided the squad has alternative craft historically assigned.
This is done in the Aircraft Inventory/Workshops interface accessed from the main Campaign GUI.

(Note: for the previous two points, overrides remain in place until the craft selected by the player is no longer available to the squadron historically i.e. when they get sent back as trainers.)



Aircraft allocations are now shown in more detail on the main Campaign GUI - "Active Airman".
Indications are now included such as when there are insufficient aircraft to assign to the pilots or whether the AI pilots craft is in for repair and so on
If an AI Pilot cannot fly due to lack of default aircraft, or because of aircraft in for repair, the player can override the AI pilots allocation as above and provided there were other types of craft available to the squad historically,
and they are available in store, the AI Pilot can be rendered fully active again.
A tally of 'Grounded' pilots is displayed to the player.
Note: Aces always have aircraft available to them and thus are always equipped irrespective of losses or damage sustained.


Implemented the ability to 'Restore' a deceased pilot's Squadron in the Pilot Dossier GUI - Logs/Claims/Victories are all reset to 0 - player has to set up a new name rank, dob etc.


Optimised the Squadron complements to better reflect historical squadron levels - Existing Squad pilots will automatically adjust to historical squadron levels over time (pilots will transfer in or out each day)


Squadrons now attempt to always put up maximum complements from 1917 onwards.


Player Squadron State is now implemented.
The Squadron state is either:
'Operational'
'Working Up' - preparing operations at forward airfield.
'Forming Up' - for example at St Omer waiting for squad members to join (normally only for a few days).
'Settling In' - after a transfer to distant airfields.
'Deploying' - commonly to France
'Departing' - going to an Airfield in England closest to the coast of France to 'Deploy'
or
'No Operations' - due to loss of aircraft or other historical issue that prevented the squadron from operating on that specific day historically.
This status is displayed top left of main Campaign GUI.
This only applies if Campaign Mission Frequency in workshops is set to Historical - any other Campaign Mission Frequency setting overrides this functionality (O/R)

Squads that are not operational, due to one of the above reasons, will now no longer appear as an enemy squad or other friendly squad in the mission region of ops.
This is irrespective of workshop settings.

This is exciting stuff! Does that mean you are ready to take my money?

The connecting rod out of my brain, my brain,

This all sounds amazing Pol. So much work both for eye candy and what's under the campaign hood. Should be spectacular.

Those are some great options and improvements Mr. P. They'll add greatly to the realism and flexibility of the game.

Thanks for the update.
