Title: Range and bearing for Bombers
Post by: Furious on July 10, 2002, 12:35:43 PM

I posted this in another thread, but like the idea and decided to give it its own post.


Bombers need navigators; to simulate this could we have the following:

Give the bombers the ability to click anywhere on the map and get a bearing and range from your current position to where you clicked. Then just line your self up with that bearing using the dashboard compass.

Its already pretty much coded for the Fleet guns.

Good idea....  
   
     But remember to check for wind speed and direction.  You'll most likely have to add a Wind Correcton Angle to your Course Line.  Not too hard to do.....

Not if you are above or below the layers.
