Gunning on a Bomber
« on: December 12, 2010, 10:50:57 PM »
I wish there was a mini-screen in the cockpit so you could gun with the mouse or something while flying the plane.

So your saying you want to control your plane while using your guns?

When in the gun position use your rudder to control the plane.

Thats like asking for b17's to have a mini screen where you control the rear guns while still flying.

Trolling?

Well I want to be able to fire the guns while flying the plane actually.  In a real bomber you wouldn't have to switch positions they'd be already manned.

So you don't want to be able to control your plane from the gunner position, you want to gun from the pilots position?  :huh :headscratch:

You have less control of your Bomber controlling it from gunners position than if its the other
way around.
He is talking about Flying being primary and the guns being secondary

Overly complicated. Ask for a gunner to latch on. -1
