I saw in the notes for the upcoming S3 #100, that we will be utilizing the Midway terrain as well as the Solomons.
I'm not sure if others have this issue, but on my FE the entire Island is submerged under what looks to be about a couple feet of water.
I'm on a Mac, not sure if PC users see the same. I'm still able to take off and land, but it is a little distracting on landings.
The runway disappears and I just see water. It's actually been this way for quite a while.
Will this be fixed before the frame that uses this terrain?

I may be able to fix it but doubt it will be in an update anytime soon. Mobile is taking all of Dans time.
The reason this terrain is like this is because they just used a bitmap to represent Midway and not an actual heightfield with 3D features.
It remains to be seen if we can put a road ontop of it.

It is just for 1 frame though. Worry about flying the Buffalo instead :)

May have to punish Swanee-san for discovering our X weapon to sink the CVN Midway.

Thanks Jabo for the status. All good.

Yep Sakai, was wondering if there was something afoot with the characters on the Axis side. Got's to keep an eye on you guys. ;)
