Hmmmm you are stirring some thoughts sir. I might need to pay a few friends a visit in Woodbridge and make Nandos the meeting spot! :D

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! :thumbup: Love it!!

I think you're on to something there my friend...from another angle. Like you said before, the geography is a bit different.

Spitfire soon. Normandy is a ways off I believe because of 2.5

You put that nicely sir! It really is about first impressions and getting that hook the first time the line is casted.

Thank you! I don't think we could handle another task slipping in and possibly push the date out for 2.5 release.

Agreed! In it's current state I am enjoying NTTR. The release of the F-5E has brought another level of enjoyment for me now, but by all means bring on the other planned airfields! :thumbup:

Such a subtle tease. Now I have to ask when are we likely to see this update? Before 2.5? :)

Releasing the upgrade would mean ushering in 2.5 which is huge in itself. It is the base to release the other maps that are in works.

I'm sure along the way we can expect some mini-heart attacks like this....

Yeah. I believe 2.5 is the foundation for other map releases. I would not be surprised if there were 3 or 4 maps almost at the ready just waiting for 2.5 to settle. LNS has several underway but status is unknown...

Uhhh...no Skates not weekend news :D, BUT it is most welcomed and definitely piques my interest in seeing the building blocks come together for map creation. I do wonder what the next steps are and what resources needed to make it come together. :)

AGREED! :)

Ahhh, but what if AI was not able to react in time, considering that the physics of the train are modeled well enough where momentum makes it derail? A train running off a bridge that's been taken out comes to mind. Would be nice to see it derail and cars tumbling everywhere. :)

Nice! And add to that, not trying to make this into a wish list, if there was a way to repair/patch damaged area. Providing that there was a running campaign in the background. :)

It sounds like to me it's a feature that wasn't initially implemented for the original project scope. The feature appears to require some alteration to the base code to make this work. To what degree I have no idea, but it again it sounds like it wasn't on the original task list. EDIT...sounds like a creeper to me if they decide to bring this feature in before initial release. Racoon thanks for the enlightment and for all the team do what you can. This sim has some serious promise! :)

Ruh roh....scope creep! Hopefully it wont take tremendous code change to bring this feature in.

+1 Bring it on! :)

Just looking at it as another stepping stone to bigger things. It's hard to do, but I am waiting! :)

Again I am jealous!! Sith you are very fortunate to be able to interact with these guys and I am sure my giddy meter would be off the scale being able to absorb their conversation and excitement also. I am sure I am not the only one with this feeling, hence the participation in the live streams. Yo-Yo should live stream some also. I would love to see/hear him explain some of the basic framework of developing the flight model on some of these birds.

Not trying to derail the topic, but we have a wonderful WWII series coming along also! :) But yeah, bring on another level of Red Flag to NTTR with the F-18C!

See this kind of stuff coming from you Sith makes me so jealous! You and the other testers have a leg up on us average folks in the community getting to see these projects take shape with every build. :) On the outside looking in I love what I see so far also and have never followed a som series so close as this. This release today does help pacify my wait for 2.5. Couldn't agree more! Again I am just simply grateful for the update today to reengage in NTTR.

Sounds like that there are more surprises coming with the new family of maps. NTTR is the inhouse test bed for now that's not quite ready to show off it's new facelift. :)

I asked the same in another thread also. Kinda hoped the update would have brought some of these items in, but oh well. This was announced in January. To me it's been a while IMHO. As always "EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE" I agree...

Yep long list of items migrating over from 1.5.4 and introducing the F-5E:thumbup: I was wondering if the map updates for NTTR are on hold until 2.5? Not a big deal really. Just glad 2.0 got some love. http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2644657&postcount=11
