bomber formations - more important than medals

[gyrene81]

it has been asked for before and it would be a very nice feature to have...allow players to change the bomber formations from the mundane 3 plane v formation. could be either a dot command or maybe check boxes in the e6b.

the formation change should also change the bomb dispersion instead of all bombs from the 3 planes hitting the exact same spot.

What kind of formation would you change to?  String?  Abreast?    Change # of planes in formation?

4 planes box formation

Is that 2 abreast low and two abreast stepped up behind?   Forgive me I'm a fighter puke - not sure exactly what a box formation is.

+1 sounds good, but I think it would require a coding change to the bomber AI so might take a while to implement.

just the formations, not the numbers... line abreast, echelon left/right, perhaps even allowing staggered alt (maintaining distance of course).

I would be happy with just being able to widen the current V formation.

personally, i wouldnt mind being able to up the drone numbers, if only for offline purposes. only up to 5 or 6 thogh.

I simply put up a mission.

Egg, how long ago is that screen shot from? Just curious as the CID in the upper right is an old squaddie of mine who left the game some time ago or so I thought

I didnt realize we had medals in this game... How can I earn them?

Left Echelon, Right Echelon, too?
