B17s Will Not Drop Bombs


Firebreak

Recommended Posts

3 different groups of 4, B17G aircraft, will not bomb they're target. Have tried most of the options for attack. Bomb map object....Carpet bomb....formation carpet bomb.....bomb group.....bomb unit. Nothing works. I did manage to get one bomber to drop 2 bombs as gamemaster and targeting via the map.

Try making sure they fly on a 10km (minimum) straight run into target and continue it for 10km in the same straight line after bomb drop, before they turn.

Are they late activated? Late activated units forget their tasks completely due to a bug.

Negative not late. one objective. I will test your suggestion, 10k ingress and 10k going away. Thanks

I just tested it. It works. You must add a bombing waypoint, and in its advanced actions, set task WW2 carpet bombing, specify stick length in feet and uncheck altitude above box. Set weapons to - Bomb and quantity to full. The blue triangle of this task should be below to its waypoint.

AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS

 

Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
