For you mission builder/scenery nuts:

Just posted on my site, a set of 3 "hulks" and a grouping of lifeboats/rafts with survivors.

Need some DP advice: tried to make the lifeboats unsinkable - doesn't seem possible even though I do not have "sink/sinker in the effects. Anybody got any ideas?

Enjoy:wavey:

Also I revised the 4 oil slicks (V2), having posted the >>WRONG<< dps, so chuck the old ones and replace if you already got them.

And, Oldwheat came up with a shined oilslick I'm testing - pretty slick!
 
Excellent work!

Just out of curiosity, why do you want the lifeboats to be unsinkable? It's a sad fact that the PTO was a no quarter given kind of fight. The Japanese regularly strafed and sank lifeboats and rafts, and the Allies soon began to return the favor.

Lovely work!:ernae:
Very small damage boxes = very hard to hit
Very large hit points = very difficult to sink

But I'm assuming you want them to take damage (& show it?)but not actually sink. I'm guessing it's hard coded into the object family. Have you tried changing the object family to a vehicle? I know ships can sail thru land, & scenery "floats" on water ...:monkies:
 
Wow!

I wish we would have had these back when we made the Battle of the Bismarck Sea. I may have to revisit that campaign and rebuild it once I get to a capable computer in a few months.
 
Great s tuff PSK!! Now that I have a complete SAR HE-59 and a lifeboat or a raft to search all I have to do is star up MB, make the worst possible weather and try to land within 100 ft of the objective. Fortunately, or unfortunately, we don´t have waves, no matter how much wind we have.

Thanks PSK

Thanks All! Enjoy

Uncle: Yep. small boxes, I'll give it a try, thanks.
Capn K - well, you can strafe em, but, didn't want em to sink, just my preference. In your version, have at it!:guinness:
