update pls

The module should've give a stat multiplier rather than a flat bonus

Hey there, I cannot seem to find the area to research IR missiles.

Would be nice if you could make customized Airship designs. Fill 'em up with guns, bombs and armor. Turn them into something akin to flying battleships.

The secret weapons section seems to be entirely missing

I posted a Bugs&Issues comment, im not sure if the developer checks it as often as they check this comments page, so I am just going to mention it's existance here. Please check it, developer

i wish there was 1960 tech tree extension version of this, would be so amazing

EaQ???

Currently there is something wrong with this mod. There is nothing unlocked on supercharger, gears and wing form make all airplanes that wasnt on production line unable to be produced or designed. Even the compatch mod cant fix it

I will try to fix the issue with Transport Planes as soon as possible.

I'm not exactly sure if it's this mod specifically but transport planes aren't able to be used for paratrops.

Update: Disabling the compatch seems to fix the overlap problem AND bring back the new electronics tech tree! And for some unknown reason, the mods seem to work just fine! Yippe!

The tech seems to overlap in this mod too, which is a bit of a shame because this mod is really nice. COULD just be the compatch which wasn't updated yet, but just in case letting you know that the exact tech overlapping are level 3 and 4 MGs with mothership upgrades (which don't even do anything) and rocket techs with oxygen tanks and pressurised cabins. Also seems like every piece of equipment for the planes have a broken description, instead just saying "PLANE_DIRECTORY". Other than that the only complaints I could make (at the moment) are that there's only one type of engine, which isn't much of an issue but having a bit more of a choice is nice, and that speed focus doesn't add speed, though it's way more useful than agility focus. Also wish to see more turret mods added. Aaaand hope that kamikaze equipment (fixed charge) gets buffed or expanded on, since 6 naval attack isn't that much for essentially filling your plane with explosives... Again, good mod though, keep at it mate!

Intercontinental Bomber is already designable

Any plans for mothership and/or intercontinental bomber designer?

The AI can use the designer. Otherwise, there have been no changes to it.

cool mod! Does the AI use the new features effectively

In lines 1679 and 1711 of the bba air tech.txt file, " " in the ai will do item is missing.

Alright! You gave me a bit of a scare there, but everything seems to be fine.

My apologies, issue is on my end, Great mod sorry for the hassle!

Hey man, Great mod! but I am not sure if it's just a me thing but the "Secret weapons" modules don't really show up in game, just asking if you're aware of that

I'm pretty sure that it cannot, but you can try it

Can it be used with the Improved Air Designer mod?

Hello everyone, I set up a Discord Server. Its primary function for now will be to release previews of what I am working on and announce any changes that go live. If you are interested in that, make sure to join me there. I am looking forward to your arrival! Join here. [discord.gg]

The problem is, medium bomber agility is so low that a +4 simply won't make any difference.

I will keep your suggestion in mind, perhaps a better solution will present itself.

The idea behind that is that you can either build a slow bomber with a lot of payload and a fixed undercarriage, somewhat outdated but still fully functional, or a fast, agile bomber like the british Mosquito. The reasoning behind that is something that many players don't know: Agility reduces the damage taken from state AA, whereas Air Defence is completely useless in that regard.

Another idea - the effects of retractable undercarriage on medium aircraft might warrant rethinking. +4 agility is ok on a fighter, but next to useless on a bomber, which naturally has low agility anyway. A CAS orientated medium is much better served by a fixed undercarriage, even though by '41 the style was almost extinct.

Great suggestion! I'll see what can be done about that.

Perhaps floats/seaplane could be moved to the undercarriage slot?

If you are playing without other mods you have to have this one enabled. If you are playing with RT56, you need the other one. There is no need to have both enabled at the same time as they mostly do the same things

Do I Have to have both this mod and the r56 one on at the same time

I made a Version that is compatible with RT56, although some features had to be sacrificed (for now.) You can find it here: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3267709286

I've thought about helicopters before, but if I'm going to add them I want to do it right. I can't say for sure that they will be added, but as long as I don't encounter issues that are impossible to overcome, I'm positive that something can be done.

Imagine if you also get into helicopters. Those were used in recon back in the era.

I will look into making a variant that is compatible with RT56 when I get around to it, right now I'm busy with the next version of this mod

Please make this compatible with RT56
