So i got this problem taking off where the plane would 'bump' (like hitting an invisible rock or something) on the runway when reaching certain speed making it impossible to takeoff. It occurs on RHS's Tu-95, TeTeTe3's Su-35 and PAK FA (forgot the author's name) , some Sabs' aircraft, HAFM but vanilla aircrafts doesn't seem to be affected including Jets DLC planes. I dont think its because of the runway terrain because i tried it on altis, stratis,and virtual garage all with the same result. Does anybody have the same issue or.. is it just me? Original https://forums.bistudio.com/forums/topic/212258-problem-taking-off/ Decided to move it here from troubleshooting thanks to suggestions and how it affects only modded planes and i'm a noob in forums Thanks guys, appreciate every help.

I would like to randomly spawn the USS Freedom in a different location on each server restart so the player has to find it, but the runway rectangle that is drawn on the ingame map kinda gives its location away! Does anybody know of a command to hide the rectangle which is drawn for each runway on the map?

FOB PRICE Story: In March 2008 czech contingent with my father went to Afghanistan to help other states here in the most dangerous part of the world to fight against Taliban fighters. For the time spent at FOB Price My dad took some photos that I would like to share with you. History: The base used to be occupied by both British and Danish troops; however, on 22 July 2013 the Danes left, having used FOB/MOB Price since 2007, so now the base is used by mainly the British under Operation Herrick (OP H). Despite the drawdown of British troops this base has been expanded by 21 Engineer Regiment during November 2012. Description: As you can see from the title will be a FOB Price southeast of Gereshk. I will draw from photos in 2008 that got out of Afghanistan. I hope that next year i will make a map around the Gereshk town and paste there FOB Price like static base. I built some buildings in Gereshk like hospital, police station and few afghan ouposts along the main road. In FOB Price will be about 800 metres long runway with two ramps for C17 and C130. Know issue: Red containers will be repaint its just basic layout of them for me. Pictures from A3 and from reality: !NEED HELP WITH TEXTURE ON WATCHTOWER. PLEASE IF YOU WANT TO HELP ME SEND ME PM!

Found something strange recently when I was working on an airfield on my terrain. Went to test all the lighting I had done so far and found that none of the white edge lights (Land_runway_edgelight) were not producing the same amount of light it did before. The others were fine. I went to vanilla terrains, Altis, Stratus, Tanoa, and found the same thing. They produce a slight glow that can't be seen from the air unless you have NVGs on. Anyone else seeing this? Could it be a game setting on my end? Thanks! Edit Filed a ticket for this: https://feedback.bistudio.com/T120048

Camp Bastion by DonbassCZ Description: Camp Shorabak, formerly Camp Bastion is an Afghan Ministry of Defense airbase located northwest of the city of Lashkar Gah in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. The base has barracks for the Afghan National Army. Between 2005 and October 2014 it was the logistics hub for International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) operations in Helmand during the War in Afghanistan and Operation Herrick, it was capable of accommodating over 32,000 people. The camp was built by the British Army and was the largest British overseas military camp built since the Second World War. The base was also home to troops from a number of nations including the United States of Americaand Tonga. Shorabak contains the Afghan National Army (ANA) camp (also called Camp Shorabak), and held Camp Leatherneck until 2014. In November 2006, the then British Prime Minister Tony Blair visited Camp Bastion, and, while addressing a gathering of British troops, described it as an "extraordinary piece of desert ... where the fate of world security in the early 21st century is going to be decided". Features: Afghan, US and UK parts in base, Canteens, HQs, helicopter airfield and plane airfield with 2 runways and huge ramps, terminal, massive containers yard , warehouses, fuel depots... Known issues: Only manual landing and taking off! The biggest base in Arma 2!

I have tried to search the forums and Google But I couldn't find the answer yet... Is there a way to taxi to the runway with a controlled pace, instead of pressing the throttle slowly and having to break and pressing the throttle again? Is there Some option to for example to limit the speed so you are not taxiing with 80mph? Thanks in advance!
