Whole B29 formation takes pilot wounds from ack
« on: February 24, 2011, 05:32:59 AM »
Upped a set of B29s offline to test takeoffs and figured I may as well roll down to the nearby base and toss some eggs around while seeing the big bird's survivability(which seems rather poor, but that's another discussion). However, as I was passing over the field, the very first ack wounded my pilot with the impact sprite on the wing. That bomber died, so I plopped into #2...which had a wounded pilot. Wing burned off, dumped into #3 with a wounded pilot. Either I had some VERY unfortunate meatbags, or something hinky's going on.
Of note, after takeoff I defaulted all of the arena settings, then set FuelBurnMult to 2 to test range on fuel load. I would hope that means I didn't have the ack strength cranked up.
