Title: AI Bomber Control Options
Post by: USBP1969 on April 21, 2021, 07:51:10 AM
Well - while I am at it again, I might as well go the whole route and list everything:

In another combat flight sim (Not as good as AH) i really enjoyed being able to use various commands to control the AI bombers. The formation could be given commands either for formation type, spacing and / or AI destination.

I imagine that bomber pilots can think of some interesting ways to use those commands. 😀

I think he's thinking about things like line abreast, line astern and spacing between planes.

I'd like to be able to do things like this with the bomber drones in the main Arena.

you can put AI bombers in the mission editor and tell them which formation to use. its in the mission editor.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say: OP means in terms of MA use.

I'd love to be able to have my formation change formation: Line Astern, Line Abreast, Echelon L High/Level/Low, Echelon R High/Level/Low, Vic High/Level (default)/Low, etc.

Okay but what about this:

You pay more perkies to get more planes. So I can spend 2000 perk points to lift off in 10 B29s (9 drones) :)
