Would be a night bombing mission possible ?

[Geleitzug]

Would it be possible with CloD to have a night sortie with bombers (He111 or Ju88) and corresponding interception by the reds ? I mean could (in principal) something alike been integrated in the existing campaigns on Multiplayer (ATAG or TWC) ? The navigation tools should be available (TWC even implemented a "Knickebein" tool)...

Yes but the night environment is severely bugged in CloD right now. We hope to address it though, because low light and night flying are another element to this sim that should be utilized.

it's true that the sim doesn't help much

Everything looks in the cabin like a strange purple color

It is also true that the battle of England was full of night raids

and modified aircraft just for that purpose

How so? I only played quick missions night and early morning. But it was fun, did not really notice anything broken.

Night in "Dr.WHO'leg world" is from 20:11 to 3:49 (in game clock), at 20:11 runway lights, searchlights start work and are turned off at 3:50.

 

Between ~24:00 and 2:00 is really dark - as should be, and not always "full moon" nights for players dogfight like in Bo'X', but clouds have a "psychedelic" light when you fly across, some city areas too, besides that plane lights don't work, they are disabled because cause "collateral effects" in the game.

 

Sunrise start at 3:50 but until ~6:59 visibility is low,  with early morning a low fog.

We are working on improving the Lorenz beam guidance systems for TF 5.0, which should improve night missions.

 

But a full night environment overhaul will need to wait till after TF 5.0.
