Title: Salvos
Post by: Ridge on December 02, 2002, 09:38:46 PM

Seems I can never get the aircraft to select a salvo. It's hard to drop 24 bombs out of a Ju88 when you have to pickle for each and every bomb. I end up making 3 or 4 passes on the towns to drop all my bombs.

I type salvo 20 in the text buffer, but bomb sight still only says salvo 1.

Any help appreciated.

You also have to toggle on salvo.  It should be a pre-mapped key so check the keymapping.

type .salvo xxx in the text buffer and if you want to change the drop delay type .delay .xxx

One hat on my throttle has these commands for 2 of its positions:

/.salvo

/.salvo 1

In the first position, I can hit whatever number on the KB, then enter.  (Great for pairs or salvos of rockets)
The second position puts it back to salvo 1 without even looking at the keyboard.

Alright, thanks. I never put the period before the command.

Thanks!

Thanks! It works! I successfully blew my Ju88 off the Mindnao map on the runway, lol
