Hello Friends,
Regarding the plane parking problem, the following adjustments worked for me:
In your hull2.msh, locate these lines under the heading [HookLoc]:
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -13 -16 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -44 -15 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -77 -13 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -77 13 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -44 15 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -13 16 14.944
and replace them with:
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -13
-14 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -44
-14 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -77 -13 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -77 13 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -44
14 14.944
1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 -13
14 14.944
And this is what I get with 4 Zeroes and 8 Kates:

Note the Kate landing gears are within the deck margin now, although they still look close to the edge.
Well, this is as far as I can push it.
This is with 12 Kates, the result is more satisfying:

Here's another view of the 12 Kate arrangement:

Although they still gather to the port side, the landing gears all stay on deck.
Here's 8 Kate + 4 Val combo:

And finally, 4 Kate + 4 Val + 4 Zero combo:

Oddly satisfying to watch them takeoff, isn't it?

Let me know if the adjustments work for you. FYI I tested with BAT 3.6.
Thanks to warduke on Reply #153 of this topic for the inspiration.
And BIG THANKS to tvister for this mod. You filled a BIG gap for the IJN
