Disable spawning multiple planes at once using the Create button.
Will be a server side setting, like external views off

One of the 109 spawns At Gazala was on really rough ground on the West side of the aerodrome.
Having looked at this, the custom spawns are fine. What happens is if the spawns are taken, say for example by aircraft not despawning them, then the game will just spawn you in on the field somewhere else. so that could've happened. Where you in line with the runway, facing it? To test this your whole crew are going to be needed for spawn point testing, this weekend.

Not sure if issue, but while taxiing at Buq Buq, I almost crashed into a towed radar hut (red white checkers). Since we have no radar, dunno if its supposed to be there or not.
Reviewed. I don't know where you thought you were but there are none of those at Buq Buq :D

Please make the boards at the airfields runways un-collidable and make them stand a little further apart at Tobruk field.


As for these tests, it would be a better idea to create a little separate map to run during tests and training so that Tobruk field is a bit less congested. We have hardly had any time to fly as a squadron, as the area is constantly full of enemy and friendly etc. (at least make it so that squadrons stationed at Tobruk, can also spawn elsewhere with the same aircraft so that they can train).
Reviewed these. They are 120m apart and you have 80m between the sets! Do you struggle with parallel parking? :lol:

I could add another spawn but this isn't really meant to be public, other crews should just piss off elsewhere, if not go and shout at them. From this Thursday it'll be a general order that strafing aircraft is banned.

An easier way would just be to add the aircraft available to fly from the field at Tobruk at another airfield too, so we can take off and train as a squadron without getting bounced before we even take off.
I don't want to spoil the map with other spawns since this is a mission file and base test.

Overall I thought things felt really good! Been a while since I was properly on a CloD server, and it actually felt pretty excellent to me. I honestly had no server issues despite having more ping than most, so that seems promising.

Also, agree with Matt that things at Buq Buq seems a bit confusing especially from the ground.

Overall decent performance but FPS dropped heavily over Gambit

Well this is more about objects and behaviour rather than performance as this is a map test, it's not the main server

Didnt have too many technical issues. Had some rubberbanding at times near Tobruk while dogfighting Hurricanes, but mostly smooth fps for me.
