• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Airbase CTD

mongoose

SOH-CM-2025
Made an updated airbase for 1943 but always CTD!:banghead: Can't see anything wrong. I guess only Clive and Joost left with airbase knowledge.:wavey: Also not showing up in the mb?

In "airfields_RAF: as "Church Fenton"

mos files TOW_Church-Fenton_airbase.mos and TOW_Church-Fenton_airbase_winter.mos both show up in mos editing

Facility TOW_Church-Fenton_airbase.xml <Facility Type="RAF Church Fenton 12 Gp Fighter" Flags="isAirbase" OuterDistance="9001">

As I always like to say what the issue was, after a wasted number of hours I replaced the facility xml content with a similar more generic version and it worked. That meant replacing the generic with the specific contents bit by bit. In the process I discovered the most likely cause was a double " on a line like so "".:banghead:

That in the end was the probable cause, as all works fine now! I have had similar issues before and looking at an old thread of mine gave me a hint!
 
My only suggestion if this is ETO is to delete and start from the beginning; or put the current install elsewhere.
