[ACKNOWLEDGED]Apron Lights Illumination Problem

[ebabil]

In the recent secreenshots, super carrier lights can illuminate the planes.

But on the airfields, planes remain dark.

Will ED improve apron lights cast also?

good point!:thumbup:

The lights at the airfields are currently not illuminating aircraft. We will see this in the future but not possible currently.

 

thanks

[ebabil]

why impossible? it seems you have this tech already. does the object have to float in the sea?

[BIGNEWY]

It is a performance issue currently, with so many light sources at airfields it is a big task.

 

That should change in the future.

 

thanks

I guess that's also the reason the lights pop up so late when closing in. I've landed at Batumi in the dark a while ago (in 256 already), but I couldn't see the flood lights on the apron until I was off the short taxi strip that leads to it - and then in F2 my plane stayed dark (what this thread is about initially)... at least now the runway lights won't show up that late anymore which is a MASSIVE improvement.

 

Hope you guys get this sorted eventually, the sooner the better of course

I'd settle for a command to switch on/off airbase lighting in general to begin with...
