Thanks for posting.

The elevators should be there... unit #963 in the oob. Perhaps try looking in the scenario.

Yes the basic "Hull" needs to be created on the map of each scenario - just copy paste from my map into yours. (or create an island the right shape with a "road" down one side).

I'm looking at 963 in the OOB and there's no graphic for the elevator listed as unit class 56 Ammo carrier.

I have tried this approach by making the ship's superstructure unit cost high.

The elevators are indeed "ammo carriers" so again hopefully covered

Thanks for the comments - looks like I'm thinking along the right lines, at least.

Eeek! Image should be #7809 (or duplicate at #7815) not sure why its not showing up... Sorry Mate I am new to modding / creating icons, etc. I am probably doing something wrong if the other icon number doesnt work either pls let me know and i will try to redo it.

Please also remember folks this is very much a work in progress and I am new at it so welcome all the advice and help I can get!

I recall wherein it was stated that user created formations should be listed at slot numbers greater than 900 in the OOB. Sorry, have not found the reference but I'm confident this is a "hard" rule.

Still can not see the elevators.

It's not a "hard" rule just good sense as no formations above 900 are used in any OOB. It makes it easier to find user created ones.

Scorpio_rocks, I now have the port side elevator but not the starboard. Have you released another version? If so, let me know.
