Title: B29 Belly gun shooting up through horizontal stab
Post by: wrench on May 31, 2013, 06:28:27 PM

Are the B29 belly guns supposed to be able to shoot up?

Here's a screenshot of B29 with both belly guns and tail gun firing up and forward. Is this correct? Film attached.

FYI, they aren't really shooting. It's just the way other players rounds/trajectories are rendered on your your screen. You also won't see when a particular gun position in any bomber is out of bullets as long as the other player still presses "fire all".
But despite of this, if he has no bullets or no valid arc of fire, he can not and will not shoot any bullets on his client.
You just don't see it, unfortunately.

Also, remember that the gunner is looking from a different position than the guns are firing from. This can screw with your perception of where the fire limiters are when you are shooting from a B-29 as well.
