The change that at “bad weather” conditions airplanes spawn from the airfield also affects arcade - at least naval. Had yesterday a number of matches where my “Stuka” JU87 has to start from the airfield - for this slow plane it took a long time to gain height and to reach the battlefield. For me its a additional nerf for planes. I don’t know if ground or air arcade is also affected. But I hope this will be reversed as bad weather doesn’t provide any cover or benefit for planes to compensate the negative efffects.

I’m really lost of why this change came in – what is its purpose?
(Especially in the Prop eras)
I know this is an arcade (and naval) post, but in Air RB and I’m in a bomber, particularly the bigger slower ones, I want to airpsawn in the cloud maps. So I can be above the clouds (hidden from people below the clouds), or I can descend a bit, get some speed and into the cloud, and also be hidden. It’s not difficult to spawn in clouds in bad weather… is it? Am I missing something? It’s better for all that I can see.
Also the times I’ve seen it call bad weather aren’t times it’s bad weather at all. Few dark clouds around, still lots of blue sky in between… this is bad weather?
I know the spawn location can be changed, but why force-change it to be airfield for so called bad weather?
Edit: This is a “bad weather” map (Air RB)

Idk bout lower tiers, but top tier you can still air spawn if you want

It came in to at least try to give gound vehicles a bit of peace from CAS.
That’s it.
I believe forced runway spawning should be all the tim
