How can I prevent FSX moving default-carriers from disappearing from the screen after some time?
From "Orion" I got the departure schedule for moving carriers and I worked pretty hard to discover all routes of the basically eight moving carriers in detail. Thanks again Orion for your help.
I recorded coordinates and the appropriate time in one hour intervals for most of the carriers. In some cases I recorded the whole ground (sea) track of the entire carrier routing. Purpose was to have numerous recovery points to choose from for launches and/or renezvous before or after tactical low level missions.
However, after working out a few low level missions with approach phase, attack phase and recovery phase; I found out, "my" carrier was not available (visible) at the planned rendezvous point for recovery at minimum fuel stage. No matter, if launched from the carrier itself or from an airbase. On recovery to the appropriate carrier coordinates after 1 hour or more flying time, the carrier was just not visible at the supposed position.
As I found out later, the carrier was there (at the exact coordinates), but the carrier did not show on the screen.
I discovered by chance, clicking OK on the present GMT time-window, the carrier reappeared on the exact position where it was supposed to be; right underneath myself.
Because of this (actually unnecsessary) reactivation of the actual time, I lost my complete flight tracking on the geographical map and the total flight track analysis.
My question:
is there a way to keep the carrier alive (visible while cruising) throughout the entire flight, even if you are not overhead the ship or sitting on deck the whole time??
Any help from our carrier operators will be highly appreciated, Amigo
