At the other end of the scale I joined a guy on the server recently that could do both AAR and AG missions using just an Xbox controller. Remarkable.

Divert to Osan/Kunsan     That reminds me i still meet people on server who think they HAVE to use 120th which of course is not the case.

Its very important to check airbase status before spending time fraging a flight. Very frustrating to realise only when you get dumped back to mission screen.  Day 1 or 2 as it would have been for you is exactly when most strikes against our bases are happening. Even the tanker base in Japan gets struck in the 1st several days.

Day 1 re-start.............  Just because      Seriously though its a fine line between playing the war out and putting off visitors with a quiet situation. For some reason the wars end is never properly revealed so thats another reason to abandon. Last save has been kept if anyone voices wish to continue. Its not a problem to load it. 

Server connections to Australia do seem to suffer.  More new faces on server tonight

Yeah i think they busted it earlier somehow  But just restarted to last save.

Day 1 again after 26 days of reasonably trouble free running.

Just curious but how does being on carrier improve missions ? Its just further to fly.  Originally the harrier was about being able to operate from improvised bases if you can call a farm yard or clearing in a wood a base.  

OK Fixed !!  and last save loaded up. Come get it whilst its hot

Server may be down until sometime on the 6th due to an issue with the host computer. If it can be fixed sooner it will be of course.

Once again.........  Re start to Day 1  Korea  KTO

The only ACDATA relevant I would think is the one in your data/sim folder. Must have been changed by some mod ?

Approx 16mb in entirety though there may be some single file within it effected. Backups are best.

War seems to be over despite as often no satisfying announcement. The usual `bad timing` and A.I flying only Tarcaps etc. No strikes.

So restarted Day 1

Server re started to last save.

Now day 25 but blue forces seem to be moving west so worth some more time/effort in hope of a win.

Day 22 and nothing moving out there. Re-started Day 1

Found server had crashed during my  off watch rest period. Last auto save was around 1am but 4 hrs or so passed so re started to approx what it would have been to keep the daylight where expected. 

Well 3 weeks + 1 day was my choice so sounds like that fits with comments so far

Ok fresh start to day1 as no sign of an official win for the team and that seems to be the norm since a long time.

Was day 26 and while up to that point there had been plenty of red ground tgts there was little if any sign of blue movement.  As an experiment I saved current situation and ran in x32 offline for 18 hrs but no real advance. Also did the same with all squadrons reverted to HQ but no difference. Perhaps not surprising as the air war HAD been won already.

If there were an obvious group of regular users then it might be reasonable to poll for what majority wanted max campaign length to be but since that's not current situation I think an arbitrary number of 22 days might be the norm in future though I was still having fun at day 26. New arrivals to the server might be put off by overly `quiet` state of play but to totally avoid that maybe a max of day 5 would be needed. (which would not be MY preference).

Re Started to last game save after `crash`

Always seem to post in the nearest main screen topic (Hijack) so from now will be here and maybe I can remember where I left it next time

Campaign restarted day 1.

Found a strange situation today. VETERANS-GAMING not a visible campaign but still running when accessed as admin. Instead another korea campaign was visible by the public access route. Double checked the situation then closed/restarted bms with last auto save.

Server restarted to day 1. Not enough active air bases left

Welcome to VG BMS

I have to say I am having great fun attempting to push back from Seoul. The war never ends officially over a great many campaigns so its kinda unimportant how this one goes. Enjoy the migs and ground missions.

For a long time now the campaign runs well past 20 days and russia/china always join in. Need more regular players to bring that down but regardless most ends are an unoffical win for blue.

Are you flying as Revan ?

Ok Day 1 restart of campaign but to a slightly more w/e pacific friendly 11:30 hrs.  Already starting to doubt my reasoning so shout if you hate.

No real proof war was over since A.i still fighting but no human flights could be fragged (bad timing errors). I saved the situation and loaded offline. As expected videos played but not one for war over. China and Russia joining in.

Server found frozen with 50% cpu load. Re-started to last save (day 23)  but likely to be another re-start to day 1 during this w/e.
