I agree. Having recently fallen in love with the Stuka, I've been looking for more things to blow up. The radar is nice, but it just doesn't blow up like fuel truck.

In my experience, you can add dozens of ground objects with virtually no impact on performance. With your server hardware, I can imagine that number reaching the hundreds.

Edit: Also, if you guys need any help in the scripting department, I'd be more than happy.

Points noted guys, I am no mission builder, I just try and keep the server running, Flashman built the last mission, but I think he has had to go lay down in a dark room for a month after trying to get it to work properly

Really think its time to take another look at how we dom missions. Maybe we all got a bit excited with ai planes moving here and there and lost the idea of static ground targets to bomb. Blissy is back from tour this week and I can assure you it will light the fire under CloD as far as SYN goes. He will im sure have plenty of new missions running with plenty to bomb, strafe, protect whichever floats your boat. In the meantime if anyone wants to run one of their missions on our server including thier scripts then buzz em to me or blacky...we will put em up in seconds

I don't know if this has been brought up before or not but it is about time that it get's mentioned.

How are, or are there already, stats coming along? Something tangible to keep up with to give you that extra incentive to make it home alive. Something along the lines of what is available in 1946 is what I'm talking about.

In game, there's a simplified statistic, but you have to set it in Controls. Not sure how long it keeps though, I logged off, came back a couple hours later, and it still was displaying the kills from my previous sortie.

Jed, excellent idea, I think I have one almost complete, a bit of tweaking here and there still. I'll send you guys a PM when I'm done and let you decide/critique/have your way with it!

if the stats are staying on the server than perhaps FBDJ is not far off

S!

Hmm...did you miss the point cheesehawk? or am i missing the point?

i think he means a rework of the stats that we have currently in game..

The whole create another aircraft as soon as your shot just gets annoying when you see that..every aircraft i shoot down is AI!, you never know who your dueling with, everytime i see someone who has a score more than 6/7 kills to 0 deaths i presume is jumping ship when they get in trouble...is this done server side or is it implemented into the game?

The statistics I am talking about would be server side and be specifically for that server only to compare stats amognst server users. Much like FBDJ is for 1946. I don't really care about "points" so much as kill/death ratio landed mission % and stuff along those lines. It would be nice to keep up with a "virtual career" on a specific server.
