We had to abandon the project, just as we were about to release beta versions of the Morane and Longhorn, due to real life issues that made it impossible for OldHat to continue. Unfortunately, he was both the project leader and our only Gmax airplane model expert. Although both models were flyable, they were each missing comprehensive damage models, so weren't quite ready for release to the general public.
I don't know if OldHat will be able to return to the project or not, and since it was his brainchild, I don't feel it would be appropriate to move on without him, even if we could find someone proficient enough in Gmax (I hear that Shredward and Polovski are kinda busy on another project right now).

ahh, sad about the planes, sadder about why. I will never be able to say thanks enough to Oldhat and everyone else who in any way makes the world, both Woff and real life, a better place. Merry Christmas all.
JJJ65, I've started having issues with the mission editor hanging. I tried to send a PM to you to discuss it but your status is "over private topic limit" so I'm unable to send one.
Are you using the cloud mod? If you are using any version of the cloud mod before 2.8, or if you aren't using the mod, there are a few WOFF clouds that can cause the ME to hang.
Also, make sure your version of the ME is up to date. The latest version is 1.4.8, I think.

Christmas came unexpectedly later this year! Thank you Jara!

I too have missed those ambushes that used to occur when taking off. Can these ambushes happen on any type mission of mission or only during a "scramble" mission?

On any type of mission but I can not reveal more to do not spoil your experience

Version 1.5.1 of ME allows customization of enemy ambush - user can toggle this feature on or off and set odds of enemy ambush over user's airfield at mission start. Download here. Enjoy!
Ha Ha!! I guess you have decided to give us a break from the "Harsh" war.
Seriously, thanks for all the fine improvements you have added to the WOFF experience Jara. It's much appreciated by all!

Thanks Jara! Does it mean that if I set the odds to 1% I'll most likely get bounced once in a 100 missions, or is there some other factor that comes into play?

You can set the odds in increments of 10 only, i.e. 10, 20, 30,... %. For example, when set to 10 (default value), the probability of ambush is once per ten missions, when set to 20%, the probabililty increases to twice per ten missions, etc.
Sorry Tripple-J, I saw the screenshot with the scale from 0-10 and assumed the first notch is 1%. I don’t know what the historical odds were but even 10% as the minimum seems high. Perhaps the scale should be revised to 0-10%?

OK, Fullofit, here is the modified version of ME with ambush odds scaled from 0 to 20 % with one percent increments. Download it here Enjoy!
