Bruh i cant produce an airplane cuz i cannot put engine aspiration and canopy cuz it just doesnt show up in the designer

Someone please make a compatibility patch for 1960 tech tree

The mod somehow managed to fuck up the AI, it freezes the game in aug 43 because it cant find airfield. Beyond that, nice mod.

would love if this worked with uttnh 2.0

Anyone else had issues with Transport wings not upgrading to new planes?

love the mod 1 issue with it though: some of the starting planes are not able to be produced since some of the modules are in the wrong slots

have you got a tank one

Update on mod issue: For some reason, it seems the mod conflict causing issues was with Equipment Conversion, for future reference!

no idea why but this mod seems bugged out, running with a few other mods granted but none of them should in theory alter aircraft deisgn (stuff like toolpack, 50 building slots, special project best outcome, etc) but for some reason all the special slots added for particular equipment (such as engine aspiration) are permanently locked. Very confusing.

Mod I have installed:
- Special Projects Best Research Outcomes for Player
- Automatic City and State Name Changer Optimized
- 50 Construction Slots
- Toolpack without the Errors
- Historical Naval Production (w/ Lower Fuel Consumption)
- More MIOs
- No Undeleteable Units
- Refit It!
- Zee's Balanced Ship Refits
- Improved Air Designer
- 10 Support Companies
- Satisfying Puppet and Country Names
- Equipment Conversion
And finally, the full suite of tank icon mods by Telephone Crab

I really have no idea what could be causing the issue. Playing full vanilla + your mod works fine though. Very confusing.

Hi, hope im not the only one experiencing this but i think this mod is incompatible with Extended Tech Tree 1960

I love this mod so far. It's addressed a lot of my grievances with aircraft, though one still remains: Large Airframes are, well, largely useless. They can only be used for strategic and naval bombing.

I know it's a long shot and I don't know how big of an ask this is... but could you make it so large airframes can mount the same modules tactical bombers use? That way they can be like more expensive, longer-range, "heavy" tactical bombers. Maybe even let them equip fighter weapons like some kind of weird super-heavy fighter.

I just never see a use for large airframes since strategic bombing is really weak unless you're using a ton of them-- but if you can produce a ton of aircraft, you might as well produce fighters and CAS. Giving large airframes the ability to equip tactical bomber modules would at least give them another reason to exist.

Hi. I've done a Russian translation here. I can provide it. I've already sent a friend request.

Anyone know if there's an updated KR patch?

Updated. I think it should be good to go, but let me know if you run into problems.

Thanks!

For some reason this seems to be breaking with the latest DLC. It's causing the new British and French puppets (Palestine, Jordan, Kuwait, Burma, Lebanon and Syria) to not actually be puppets.

new update

Any chance you can move motherships from being separate equipment to becoming a module for heavy frames?

compat with r56?

i seem to have a problem where rocket engines cant be used at all because there is only compatible with jet engines or regular prop engines could just be me or the mods i have

I'm assuming this isn't yet compatible with RT56?

Added Molo's changes. See Change Notes for information.

Heavy Fighters should definitely fly further than light fighters. If they're not, I'll have to look into it.

Is the Heavy Fighter range buff actually working?

Good stuff, Molo!!

I'll have to look at tweaking these items.

Thanks!

Sorry about that, guys!

Since a lot of the tech changed, I forgot to add the compressor and rocket techs into one of the new existing techs. It should be fixed now.

Single Stage Rocket and Compressor are now under Experimental Rockets. Dual Stage Rocket and Improved Compressor are now under Dual Chamber Rockets.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Thanks!

the mod prevents us to make rocket engine interceptor. anything reported about this?

Sorry about that. You have to change engine aspiration to "Compressor" instead of the piston engine types of "Naturally Aspirated", "Turbocharger", and "Supercharger".

How can I use jet engines on small airframes? It says, that all options on the piston module slot are incompatible with jet engines.

This isn't @ O' Neil (The mod's creator), this is just a more general wish
Could someone make a version of this that works with Eight Years War Of Resistance please? That mod makes vanilla China so much more fun, but I hate having to choose between this mod and that mod

Ah, also, maybe tweaking drop tanks to a percentage (somewhere between 15 and 30% increase, or maybe allow single/double tank versions?) rather than +300km might make them a little more balanced for the 1936 era. Maybe tweak the cost or the modification cost to make up for it?

Best of luck with the new business, none of this is remotely high priority :D

Just giving this a try now and i like it so far, especially medium naval patrol!

a suggestion: it would be nice to have the squadrons behave like the large patrol bombers, with an air wing size of 10 instead of 100. i tweaked the config file locally so honestly nbd if that's not a change you want to make around balance.

Thanks, Hauptman.

@djvandebrake - just a humble grocery / convenience store (government regulation and red tape, ughhh . . . . . )

Oooh, what kind of business are you starting?

@Colonel O'Neil it's fine, seeing how the new update fucked with the tech, it's only natural it would take such a long to time to fix something as complicated as this, I wouldn't have been able to do something like this, so thanks for continuing to update the mod despite your real life ventures and paradoxes feature creep! have a good day

I finally updated it! Sorry it took so long (I'm in the middle of starting a business in real life, so this isn't exactly on the front burner).

I had to remove MIO and National Focus stuff temporarily so that I could just get a version up and running for you guys. I'll go through those two items at a later date. Also, the AI may not be so great at updating planes. It will do reasonably well, but there are some additional files that govern AI behavior in this regard that I still need to go through.

Let me know if there are any issues.

Thanks!

@BritishTeaEnjoyer Unless 1.15 changed things (haven't looked at the files recently) squadron size is part of the equipment entries on planes - so you won't be able to use them together. Unless Colonel O'Neill makes a version of this specifically for other squadron sizes, or you alter the game files yourself.

I really hate to nag, but is there a possible ETA on the update, if not, then it's fine, just curious.
Keep up the good work!

Yeah, this mod is not updated yet. Please see previous posts.

It change my German focus back to 1.14 version and also it crash when I the time start

Anyone know any squadron-size changing mods that work with this mod? started playing with them and they've become a must in my mod-list, as with this mod, but they never work with this mod

o7 god speed soldier

UPDATE: I'm still working on it, piece by piece. It is a SUPER extensive change that Paradox made to the files, so I have to go through each and every one with a fine-toothed comb.

Also, I do not have a lot of time since I have real life stuff going on too. Hopefully, this will be completed by the end of the year.

ah understandable, I was just curious since it was at least a week since the last word ive seen on updating this mod. good luck on this endeavor!

Sorry, I know it's been a while since the update came out.

I've started modifying the files, but almost all of the files have changed significantly . . . so it's a very long slog through all of the files to update them - not to mention the fact that many of the changes are very fundamental to the game, so I have to balance what I used to have as a change against the "new" game . . . should I keep it, should I not . . . YIKES. It's a lot!

any word on an update to this mod? or at least a small patch to fix the mission icons? for some reason the 1.15 update or dlc seems to have broken this consistently across most mods which modify planes.

Thanks for the heads up, SolidSpace. I had a feeling this was going to be a real pain. This may take quite some time.

Thanks!

fyi for updating: electronic tech gonna be messy since paradox moved all jet engines module to be special project unlocked and overhauled whole radar tech tree

incompatible with the Blitzkrieg German overhaul mod, can you make a compatch?

r56 or no?
