Title: bomber formation bug
Post by: climber on April 09, 2010, 11:51:14 PM

I'm unable to switch from one aircraft to another using Ctrl 1,2,or 3 when in a bomber formation.  When I got shot down all 3 aircraft in formation go down and I only see one "shot down" in text buffer.  Hopefully the dweeb that shot down 3 sets of lancs enjoys his easy kills and hopefully he only got 3 kills as opposed to 9!

I thought, when shot down in bomber #1, you needed to bail out from the pilot's position in bomber # 1 to keep all three bombers in formation from going down.

Hey buddy, Had that happen to me the other day when a 190 only concentrated on my center buff and then once he got my wing and I went into a spin goin down, I tried to switch planes while yelling about "I thought they fixed that BS", lol.  I then noticed when he landed he only had 2 and one of em was a proxy ona squaddie that went down tryin to escort me.  Today after being shot down in my center bomber I was able to switch but Im not sure if this is going to be a sometimes ya can and sometimes ya cant ya know.  Hope that helps or makes ya feel better.

Killed a set of lancs sunday night by hitting the lead and right drone, left drone received the same damage as the right drone.
And witnessed this happen last night on a friendly set of lancs.

Try to switch planes while gunning my B26.  Nothing couldn't switch to another plane.
