Thanks guys.
That's pretty much my conclusion, too. I am guessing that they are infrastructure objects that have a place-able user point of view, like many of Usio's ships have. And that is the reason for the odd set up, as opposed to using the regular SCENEDB\inf route.
Guess if I were really fired up about it, I would load them up in a mission and see whats what. They were all sitting inside a folder I had named "Ships - inactive". Think I will leave them there for now.
Cheers,

Seems kind of an odd infrastructural need to fill, eh?
Thank you, Ravenna.
FYI I just looked up "mihari" in Google Translate. It means "a guard". Watchtower <-> a guard. Makes sense.

Thanks Fibber. Yeah, what I ended up doing is renaming the folder "Usio Infrastructure" and moving it to one of my back-up drives: Downloads/CFS2 Downloads/Cfs2 Ships/Usio/. Sounds like you and I have our Usio D/L folder set up very much the same. They are treasures.
Cheers,

Thanks Cody and KD,
But still, I wonder why he didn't just use the regular SCENEDB\inf route? Do these object appear as carriers in the MB layout window? In other words are they somehow objects you can put yourself onto? Are they GSL type objects that can be added to the GSL layer?
I don't know. It just seems a very odd way to create infrastructure scenery objects unless maybe there is something more to them than meets the eye.

Chris,
Just had a look at the Misc Data section of the DP for the Mihari. It is set up as a carrier so, as you suspected, it would serve as a viewing platform using one of Usio's naval personnel, which are set up as aircraft. I have used some of Usio's objects as infrastructure but it never occurred to me to place the player's aircraft as a figure to observe the way an attack progresses. The allegiance can be changed of course.
cheers, Michael
