Ground vehicles/Aircraft

[Freakmeister51]

Why is it that Ground vehicle are visible before activation but aircraft are not. Any chance we can get this changed please.

You can have parked aircraft visible before activation by using the 'uncontrolled' box.

And if you need them to start up at some point, go into the "Triggered Actions" tab, and add the action: Perform Command -> "Start", and the aircraft will start up and do whatever it is it's instructed to do from then on.

This is particularly good if you want the aircraft to be part of an Alert force sitting on the ground and starting up when there's an attack on an airbase or something.

No, this doesn’t make any difference

You probably still have Late Activation ticked. You don't want both. Only use Uncontrolled and the aircraft will be visible.
