I am having much difficulty with dive bombing... Mainly because I do not know if my egg hit the target or not... The only way I can tell is to try to look back or make a sweeping pass over my intended target and look for a bomb crater in the ground to see if i missed... I assume if I see no crater I must have hit the target ???
It would be most helpful if the System could give a confirmation of a bomb hit... The same as it does when your target is destroyed...
A simple "Congrats" or "Target Hit" would help so much in helping me determine if I am using the right combo of sight lines,angles etc. to successfully Dive on a target and Place an egg where I intend to place it.
Anybody else that thinks this will help ???

if you hit something and kill it you will get a msg
Hangar Destroyed
Gun Emplacement Destroyed
if you kill a gv or something you will get kill msg.
If you damage something you get no msg. But you can check where your bomb hit as to where the crater is. When pulling out check 6 or high 6 and look. Also practice offline or film what your doing in the main.

Like Wotan said Boot, its already there.

If you don't see a crater, you dropped too low... or over water, if u watch when droppin over water you will see the water plume

Keep in mind, too, that near misses will cause some bomb blast damage, ie, you have a near miss next to a hangar, someone comes by and strafes it, it blows up. It would be nice to have a generic "Hangar has been damaged" text that determines, say, 50% or more has been damaged.

Thanks for the Response, everybody..
I understood many of the points that you each brought up...
But I would still like to see HiTech add a confirmation note... "Target Damaged" would be a real nice one for instances where you don't destroy the target but you do hit it...
