When you go the hangar to select a plane/gv, how about a check box for tracers so it can be individually set?

In the buffs that dive bomb, i.e the ju88 how about when the dive brakes go out the drones automatically form into line astern, like they do when landing?

Can the stuka's, sbds and tbms have formation ability?

Regards

Stukas and SBDs have no bomb sights so it would be kind of hard to use them in formation.  TBMs would be fine though.

Stukas SBDs etc were dive bombers, they flew in formations and hit a target. Itd work just like the Big bomber formations. When the lead plane drops the rest do. I like this idea.

I'd hate to see Stukas in drone formations... just think about three, low-alt, suicidal Stukas with total 5400kg of ordnance.. which equates to what, about 10800 lbs load for just 3 planes? They are cakewalk to shoot down, yeah, but...

 On the other hand, the drones changing formation for Ju88 when it enters 'dive bomb mode', would be awesome.
