Task Force Admiral

Can you focus on Japanese units?
I thought it would be fun to watch the IJN do it's takeoff routine, but I can't figure out how.

i seriously doubt that, not unless you had some kind of incognito spy unit monitoring their movements,, indeed you lose track of even your own aircraft once they exceed a certain distance,, stealth and uncertain movements and actions are at the heart of the game, and they were at the heart of the real pacific carrier battles tactics , Nagumo's dilemma, at Midway, which really was a turning point in the Pacific war, though how the defeat came to pass for the Japanese might be more surprising than some might realise it all came down to a 15 min window and what was the best course of action to take he chose what turned out to be the wrong decision but it was more of a toss of a coin situation. ..this is a classic scenario of what carrier battles were all about, the ultimate hide and seek game that and maybe submarine warfare i'd say

Don't get me wrong i get why you are asking, i felt the same with MSFS and just watching the AI pilot fly the aircraft, only it didn't work very well. to get back to TFA IRL you simply wouldn't really know what the enemy was sending till it arrived.

You can only see the Japanese ships, if you have planes in the area, and have selected them in 3D mode,

easy...once you've detected then....just click on the map near their icon and go 3D....if lucky enough you will see their wakes and just click on one ship..and so on till you reach the CV...quite historical routine by the way, with one ship launching TBs and the other DBs

Hello there

We had to make some choices unfortunately so as to be able to deliver a given package for TFA at the expense of some of our more advanced functions.

Ultimately we will offer players variable levels of realism which will allow you to see more - or less - of everything around you. It should be easier then to get to see what you want to see. For now, it is more or less, as said above, limited to what your guys can see at a given moment.

Thank you for your understanding & patience,

Cheers
