SwallowFire Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Hi guys, I just played a bombing mission with ju88 in the campaign mode. I don't fly bombers very often. The mission was successful and lots of fun. But I have several questions. When I went back and checked the replay, I realized that my wingmen didn't dropped the bombs at all. When I flew away from the mission area, they still had the bombs on their wings. Should I command them to drop manually? If so, should I use the "attack nearest ground targets" command? How can I make sure they bomb the mission target? Thanks!

By the way, for those who enjoy bombers, the effectiveness of the AI gunners has been improved, there were a number of bugs in the original game which were preventing bomber gunners from aiming or firing correctly. So now it is not at all healthy for fighters to attack directly from a bomb groups six o'clock position. Please also note, there are G effects in place for any gunners... not just for pilots. So if you introduce too much G force into the equation, i.e. you maneuver your aircraft heavily, your gunners will be unable to fire. Edited December 14, 2017 by Buzzsaw

But I just realized that I placed this topic in the wrong section. I actually meant AI in BoS. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
