That's good news Space

Well done.

Sounds really interesting. I think I might have to join that one when it's up.

Well I just hope that if I come in at a bad angle the afterburner will get me out of it.

Will this be available to all clans to put on their locked passworded servers?

(please, please please)

Yes, the jets in the hangars are the MP ones, the ones on the airfield are tweaked for AI use.

Can we get a DEV to clarify any answers here? The vehicles seem to spawn much faster than in multiplayer. maybe just because there are more of them?

thanks DEV

Kashan Desert spawn times

AAS normal jets: 20 minutes

COOP normal jets: 5 minutes

COOP bot jets: 1 minute

Moving bot targets is an advantage, but COOP doesn't have the variety of assets that training mode had. The bot-jets are far more maneuverable so if you're training with the normal jets you're at a disadvantage in dogfights.

A little guide to get normal Aircrafts in a coop game.

Go to Battlefield 2/mods/pr/levels/kashan_desert.
Make a copy of the server.zip for a backup.
Open the original server.zip.
Go to GameModes/gpm_coop/64.
Open the GameplayObjects.con with Notepad.

Edit vehicle spawns:
Remove the _sp to get a normal multiplayer aircraft.
You can also change it to any vehicle you want when you know the exact name like "us_the_chinook".
Decrease the numbers to get a lower spawntime. (measured in seconds)
