Coop Spawn Point Glitch | Forums

I have a mission, created in 2.04, on the Online8Island map, which has two flights of 3xP-40 taking off from the airstrip on the north island. The takeoff waypoints for the two flights are snapped to separate runways, and when the mission is flown, each flight spawns on separate runways, as intended.

I copied this mission over to 4.08 (same thing for 4.04 too), and without changing a single thing, when the mission is flown in 4.08, both flights (all six aircraft) spawn on the same runway. I can't get them to spawn on separate runways as they did in 2.04.

Why would that be?

IIRC that is the legacy of the carrier AI which came with PF. Apparently it was the price Maddox Games had to pay for introducing carrier ops ... *shrugs*

Ahhh, that explains it. I was wondering why, even though the waypoint snapped to another runway in the FMB, in mission everyone started out on the same runway. Pity they couldn't have written the code better for the carriers.
