cant put small craft in large hanger
« on: December 20, 2009, 08:52:14 pm »
i'm playing  destructavator's build 27240 when I researched the dragon craft
i could not get any because i only had large hangers in my base.
And I made sure at least one was empty.
demolishing a large hanger and building a small one allowed me to buy them.

Shouldn't I be able to store a dragon in a large hanger though?

skarg,
think of hangars beeing specialized for a certain type of aircraft.
You'd have problems maintaining or even refueling an F16 in a hangar for a 747.

no worriies Duke, I originally
only viewed it as a volume problem, one of
storage.
I did not consider it in the light of maintenance or one of
servicing.
Although not an aircraft expert, I can understand the argument
that something designed to, say,
lift a large craft might simply drop or maybe crush a smaller one.
