Airbases.dat Help!

[jackedwardmorris95]

Well, as you know,my 100th BG campaign has been faced with problem after problem, like some force has been trying to stop it. here is the latest:

I added this entry to my airbases.dat folder (Changing the X's to the next number in sequence):
[runway.xxx]
id=xxxx
name=Thorpe Abbotts
heading=81
allegiance=1
units_across=2
base_lat=N52 23.40
base_lon=E1 12.42
base_alt=46
takeoff_start_pos=0,0
takeoff_stop_pos=1600,200
landing_start_pos=5000,350
landing_touchdown_pos=600,0
landing_stop_pos=-250,0

But the airfiled isn't appearing in mission builder, the people here have been great, and if you guys keep helping me like this, I don't see me being forced to scrap the campaign,

Hi Jack: after saving your airbases.dat file, did you first run CFS2 and then MB?

that might help.

You need to out heading and then allegiance in that order under base_ alt=

You...

...need to make sure that your ID=xxx number is not duplicated anywhere else in the DAT file. Unlike the RUNWAY.xxx number, those are not necessarily sequential, AND I have often found duplication in add-on dat files.
