Bombing bug possibly....
« on: July 28, 2004, 07:01:15 PM »
take a bomber like the JU88 with to seperate ord choices.

load the 4 500kg and the 20 50kg.
set salvo to 4 and delay to .4

have the 500kg selected, and doors open, hit B

after you hear 1 or 2 bombs release hit backspace. then hit B again right away

you will find the salvo of the 4 500kg will have stopped and then 4 50kg's have been dropped. leaving you with 16 50kg bombs, and 2-3 500kg left.

i repeated this offline 1 time, havent tried again

seems like no matter what all 4 500kg's should drop no matter what you press or do, though i will say i love it this way. carpet bombing a town, drop 2 500kg (from a formation thats 6 bombs) then quick switch drop 2 salvo's of 4 50kg (from a formation thats 24 bombs), and you still have 2 500kg and 12 50kg bombs left for the second pass.



if the game is not meant to be this way fine, but here's a suggestion. for bombers with multiple loads like the ju88, have a primary and secondary salvo allowed.

like .salvo1 2
and .salvo2 4


that would be really nice, though i know nothing of the historically accuracy of it.
I don't know what to put here yet.
