Title: Bomber Engines Idle When Main Plane in Formation is Killed
Post by: Zener on November 17, 2017, 12:40:46 PM

I've noticed this happen sporadically.  When in the tail gun position of the main formation plane, B-17s, B-26s, or Lancs, and that plane is shot down, it jumps you to the cockpit of one of the drones.  When you get there, the engines are at idle and after a second or so they rev up to whatever the throttle is set at (always at full in my cases).  Every once in a while (happened the last time two days ago) my main plane was destroyed by ack over a BB.  When it jumped me to the drone, the engines were OFF and had to be manually restarted.

Is it supposed to work like that???

I don't have film of it, but I'm going to start filming if that will be of any help.
