Test Runway 4 - benson - 10.07.2008
I would like to try to alter one of the stock maps. I've done a search but didn't come up with anything. Would anyone be so kind as to quickly explain to me the principles behind using Test Runway 4 to alter aircraft positioning on the airfield? Thanks in advance.
Regards

...if you mean altering as mission template then its pretty simple ...
view .... objects ....stationary ships.... test runway 4
place it on full flat ground ( you may test this with tr3 ) in 3d mode you may see white markers on runway edges ... rotate with num 7 ..9 ...1 ...3
setting take off / landing:
just assign desired waypoint as "set target" and landing/take off for flight ( the same as with carriers )

I placed the test runway 4 on an airfield in FMB so I could start on the ramp, and I did. Problem is when I taxi and turn off the test runway onto the taxiway it's like rolling off a 2ft curb and I groundloop.
Then if I make it I still have to takeoff over this huge speedbump, since it usually overlaps the runway. Is this the only way to start on the ramp? :? Just a little annoying.

these test runways are basically aircraft carrier flight decks on land or sea
so you are acted upon just the same as with a carrier.....no going off the edges :wink:

Well that doesn't help much.

Ok When I made my Campaign "All the Kings Panthers" (Part 1) War in Europe I used the Test Runway 4 in order to have the pilot SPAWN in a hanger, and then taxi where ever he'd like to the Runway.
The way you do this is to completely cover your airbase with Overlapping Test Runway 4's.
It works, if you would like to see such in action, or simply open my Campaign up and look at how I did such then Download this Campaign, and check out the first Mission.
