Title: Mossie Bomber Bug
Post by: Yarbles on August 05, 2011, 08:27:29 AM
Maybe I am the only one who noticed this but;

I have done a single sortie in a Mossie bomber and dropped one cookie on a town centre and got afround 167,000 for one town centre having filled the screen.

Then I do the same thing again but bomb 4 town centres re arming 4x but only get about 270,000 damage points.

Then I bomb 4 town centres in a row in a B29 with 4K bombs in one sortie and get about 600,000 points for that.

Now the Mossie 4 sorite with re arms looked to do more damage than the B29 run overall but yielded less than half the points  :headscratch:

One of the downsides of being in "The Few" is you get followed around by a gang of japeing idiots  :D

Different objects give different points. So you kill an ack gun it's worth less than say a building (just to make up a comparison).

Also with regards to the text buffer, if it scrolls past the screen, you can't tell how many objects were destroyed. On the one sortie you may have got the full screen, but that screen may have pushed down 10 more lines of objects. On the second sortie you may have got a full screen of objects hit but it had nothing to push down the text buffer.

Also the 4k cookie is often hit or miss (no pun intended). You are probably better off taking the 500lb bombs and targetting building clusters. The same can be said of the B-29, and when doing that nobody tops the B-29 for 500lber capacity!

I will doube check but repeateed runs in the mossie do allot of damage but somehow it doesnt translate into points  :headscratch:
