Bomb drop in career mode

[JG4_Moltke1871]

Hi there,

 

whenever I practice level bombing with my squad in FC career mode I notice my squad members most time miss the target by dropping too late while my bombs hit accurate. 
The problem seems to be the squad drop their bombs not earlier before my last bomb left the plane, no matter I drop manually or chose option drop all.

 

In WW 2 missions it’s different, Ai drops accurate together with me but just ignore my drop delay 

 

The logic for Flying Circus missions should be change to drop with my first bomb, hopefully this is possible.

 

By the way, the AI is able drop all bombs same time while my plane drops still one by one, even if I choose drop all in the bomb sight.

Also it seems the AI Bomb fuse is always „default“, no matter I choose contact for example. ( also in WW2)

 

If you need any data please tell me wich ones, so far my last mission is still available.

Does this only happen when you are the flight leader?

Yes, I always play as squad leader, I have no experience with lower ranks.

Which aircraft are you using in BOX and FC?  Looking at the ai files in the ai folder, the aircraft all have different salvo commands.  One of them is always -1, which means default.  Also, when the options are available for the particular aircraft, are you setting the bomb mode and delay?

Okay, if you can record a track file and share the entire folder here of the recording, I will forward it to our QA team.

@LukeFF, have a look into the flying circus bug section on discord, I posted a track data there 😉

Thanks, forwarded to our QA team.

This wasn't fixed in the last update, but it's planned to be later this year.

Thank’s 🙂

Glad the problem could be reproduced

About that issue one more question:

 

When I chose option „all“ to drop the bombs my plane still release the bombs slowly one by one (like I would release em in single drop mode one by one) while the AI planes dropping em very fast. Would it be possible/useful drop em in „all“ mode like the AI planes?

I think that's a simplification for the AI.
