Salvos

Seems I can never get the aircraft to select a salvo. It's hard to drop 24 bombs out of a Ju88 when you have to pickle for each and every bomb. I end up making 3 or 4 passes on the towns to drop all my bombs.

I type salvo 20 in the text buffer, but bomb sight still only says salvo 1.

Any help appreciated.

You also have to toggle on salvo.  It should be a pre-mapped key so check the keymapping.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

One hat on my throttle has these commands for 2 of its positions:

/.salvo

/.salvo 1

In the first position, I can hit whatever number on the KB, then enter.  (Great for pairs or salvos of rockets)
The second position puts it back to salvo 1 without even looking at the keyboard.

Alright, thanks. I never put the period before the command.

Thanks!

Thanks! It works! I successfully blew my Ju88 off the Mindnao map on the runway, lol
