Post by: cav58d on September 25, 2006, 04:42:39 PM: wow...why did I just delete what I wrote, because people are prolly going to be interested lol...

Anyways, what I was saying is that I find it confusing when flying an A-20 or P-47 with 500 pound loadout's, because the ammo counter is stationary, and the bomb counter cycle's leaving you to question which bomb am I actually dropping? In particular, I find this a problem in the A-20 having internal weapons...

I talked to Pyro, and unfortunately to fix something like this, is a lot more coading and computer work then I would have imagined it would be...

I recommended that for something like the A-20 we have something like 500-I for Internal bombs, and 500-E for external, or possibly color coding (white for internal/yellow for external)....

Hopefully once CT and other projects are finished, HTC could take a look...

thanks for the chat Pyro!
