Vehicle and Aircraft Supplies!
« on: February 21, 2012, 12:14:45 AM »
I think it's cool that I can patiently wait to dive on a slightly distracted wirblewind, take out his turret, and during my egress in excess of 400+ mph in my P51, he can shoot me down after using supplies to get a brand new turret instantly installed with the click of a button. :noid

What's next, aircraft supplies to instantly repair your aircraft after getting a wing shot off?  Sweeeet!  :x

Everyone enjoy!

I hear a ground crewman will climb up on your wing with Irish Coffee and Scones while your ride repairs itself.

I think there should be a delay while repairs /reload just like on a rearm pad.  However I can live with it the way things are.

pand that is so hard to do that I dont think it really happened.  when a werbie picks up supplies he must jump out of position then jump back then reacquire target.  in those couple of seconds a pony should be really out of range and if you actually got shot down, then you deserve to get shot down, sorry.

The plane would have to be egressing the same direction as the hull on the flak was pointing.

Or 37 or 88.  Like semp said, there is just no way to pick up sups and get back on target to make the shot.

I question why GV have instantly repairs by one click (if there are GV supplys near by). The icon range has been shorten to make it harder to spot them, well, for most people that is. I can still spot them 8,9,10K high and drop on them. So, why can AC get them to? Why not have repaires done on the rearmed pad where they can have oil, fuel leak, guns, arilion, rudder, elevator and engine repaired?

it would be nice when on the re-arm pad not only re-arm the plane but do repairs to the aircraft too.
