There is screen somewhere in CFS2 that lets us adjust the distances between the aircraft in the formation that we have selected in the Missions Builder.

There is no such screen for adjusting the formation intervals between aircraft that I know of....and I've been using MB for nine years.

I do recall something about a "collusion bubble." How can it be made smaller?
Thanks,
Don

"...... Don't forget to use one of the [glow=yellow,2,300]mk_mdlc[/glow] versions to reduce each plane's "Collision Bubble".

Another problem I just ran into.
I made some changes in the above file and then tried to save the changes. I remember doing this in the past but this time my computer would not allow me to save the changed file. ?

Tango,
1) I downloaded the CFS2 handbook. I hope is has something to say about what I'm trying to do.
2) i fouund tht READ ONLY block you mentioned. It was unchecked.
3) You suggested that I may be setting the aircraft in formation too close to each other. But those close settings worked great worked great at that time.
4) As I recall I neededo add a "name_string" at the end of the file I had edited.

Thanks for your help Tango. I'll let you know if I can get what I'm looking for. And that is an airshow Blue Angels type formation rather than a combat spread formation.

Somehow I was able to do this several years ago and it worked fine. Again, if I ever figure it out I'll let you know.

Please let me know if this works, I've been trying to do the same. Is it possible to do the same in QC?
Thanks,
T.
