Static Objects Placement on Super Carrier?

[mytai01]

Isn't there a map of the carrier deck to accurately place static objects where one wants them? It's totally a guessing game as far as I can see...

When I have time I use some real carrier pic to have a sort of guide or "map".

Try some scripts from redkite.

If you´re talking about carrier deck config:

I use real life pics as a guide to mimic the carrier deck. We´ve got so much information available you just need to look around.

I use docs and listen to podcasts which also help me understand the dynamic of the carrier deck of a supercarrier.

I'm not talking about what a real carrier deck looks like. I'm saying you can't see the carrier deck when placing static objects and therefore have no idea where the objects will appear until you go into the game and look...that seems wrong to me.

Yes you can:
Make sure the little tank icon (show models) is ticked in the Mission Editor

I´m sorry, i thought you need help with deck config. As Raven stated, you can place them in ME (like the pic he posted)

. I have no issues placing the units guiding by the lines on deck. And of course sometimes is trial/error if you´re like me and obsessed with perfection when placing the statics. I´m use F2 view to check the layout then i go back to Mission Editor to fine tune the statics position.

A preview window sort of like we see with the arming screen would be a good addition here.

Clicking the "Tank" icon was what I needed to do to get what I intended, Thanks Raven!

I’m glad you got it sorted!
