Put yourself into a tumbling spin and pull the trigger, like so:

Badguys drop like flies! Instant victory

[D-XXI]

[Pershing]

Awesome news, thanks!!

PS - may I ask what "spin-shooting" is?

May be this is the "spin-shooting":

[Robo.]

May be this is the "spin-shooting":

What it means is a spin that occurs when you hit the enemy aircraft with cannon fire, e.g. in the wing. The effect was hugely exxagerated in some instances.

[Pershing]

You mean hitting with MK-108, VYA-23 (ВЯ-23 - on LaGG-3 and Il-2) and other guns > 20 mm?

[JtD]

Yes, happens with 20 mm and up. The plane gets hit and acts like it lost a wing.

[steeldelete]

Thanks!

[fruitbat]

Awesome, can't wait.

Thanks for all your hardwork.

If they fixed this, I'm going to give someone a hug!! :o:grin::o:grin:

[Ikarushin]

Thank you very much Team Daidalos for your continuing efforts to further improve Il-2! Very, very much appreciated.

Kind regards,
Ikarushin

[GF_Mastiff]

If they fixed this, I'm going to give someone a hug!! :o:grin::o:grin:

yes this is nice, since happens in IL2 plane a lot from the 109s.

[rollnloop]

Thanks a lot DT :-)

[6BL Bird-Dog]

Well done DT:cool:

[T}{OR]

Many thanks for this!

Just one question as I don't see it on the list: can we now properly see when just one engine stops running online? (compared to all engines dead and not spinning as usual)

[JtD]

I think it is still No.1 engine that is relevant for display of all engines online.

[beazil]

Hey TeamD - Thanks for your continued hard work and committment to making this game better!

2 things: One please please please if possible, comment as to whether you may be able to improve things (ie: no mods needed) for us widescreen and triple monitor users (Huge TY and S!'s for everything you do!)

Second: Can someone please tell me which key to use to use the "periscope" style gunsites on early Japanese and other planes (been playing for years, and have never seen an answer to this question - bet I'm overlooking something simple!

S! again, and thanks!

[[URU]BlackFox]

Great job guys!

It's incredible how you keep up giving life to this great sim. By now it keeps being the #1 combat flight sim ever in my list, and you just keep increasing the lead over the rest.

[Kittle]

To uncover the telescopic sights on aircraft like the Ki-27 or Ki-43, use Ctl+D. This is also the sun shade for reflector sights that have this equipped.

Thank you so much for your hard work TD!!!! This is much appreciated, the temp guide is pure genius. Been at this game for a long time, just now got a real handle on CEM.

[eduzk]

I'm clicking the 'like' button on every AI improvement, although I haven't even tried this yet.

[mazex]

Thanks a lot guys!

Awesome that you keep the best game ever alive!

[mmaruda]

Ha! Now it's perfect. Il-2 confirms it's status as the greatest ever.Hell, it's patched more often than CloD and DCS! :D

Thank you very much TD, you have made my miserable life bearable again.

[BH_woodstock]
