How do we edit the position of Airbases in provinces on the map

How do we edit the position of Airbases in provinces on the map ?

I edit the position of naval bases from the db/province.csv file

In province 1 for example there is Port XPos and Port YPos...so when i alter these numbers i move the naval base right and left...up and down...

Name Port XPos Port YPos
PROV1 13120 690

The same is for anti-air and other items on the map...

But i cannot find Airbases Positioning anywhere in this file !

Does anybody know how do we change air-base positioning ?

Have you tried moving the Army YPos etc to see if that is really the airbase?

I don't see where else it could be?

Novapaddy, thank you for your reply !

Armies are obviously another item that needs placing position on the map !

Perhaps i should check an item that seems to share the same location with airbases...but i cannot think of something like that...Armies obvioysly do not share the same position with airbases as one can see on the map...

I suggest you PM mumia, he has years of experience with maps.

Airbases share position with the weather symbols. If raining or snowing everywhere it makes it very hard just to see the airbases because they tend to hide under the "cloud icons".

On the other hand, when wondering where a new base will be located in any province, I wait until some weather clouds pin point it for me.

Airbases definitely share the same position with another item. Can't remember which though. Just use the object editor that comes with mapmaker and it becomes a piece of cake.

I just want to edit airbases location...as i did with navalbases location...

How do i do this...is still unknown !

Just an idea.... can you edit the location of any of the following weather symbols: raining, snowing, blizzard and thunderstorm? Those share provincial positioning with the air bases. Maybe the air base edits are done in same file as those weather icons - as opposed to the file where the naval bases got edited? Just a thought as it seems the problem firstly is finding the air bases even just listed to so be able to edit them.

Raining, snowing, blizzard and thunderstorm icons.
