Enemy reaction at your converg
 
Enemy planes seem to react at or about convergence (yours) when you're coming from dead six - I've set different distances - but 8 out of ten times the enemy (fighter) seem to evade just as conv is met - anyone else seen this?

Yes, the almighty all seeing eye they have. I was hoping that CoD was improved in this aspect with respect to old IL2. Helas ...

Does the distance they react at change if you change your convergence? Say for example I set my convergence to 10m will they not react until then? Sorry I can't test my self, and apart from Ai bombers have not had much experience dealing with the Ai in combat.

from my experience, convergence doesn´t matter (much), at around 300m they start maneuvering (and i never set conv. to 300m ;) ) or when you hit your trigger, no matter the distance. sneaking up on your bogeys low six doesn´t help either, even if there is no one else who could see it.

Good old IL2 behaviour. :rolleyes:

According to a previous development update they recently hired a dedicated AI programmer to improve things, he's redoing the friendly AI radio commands first though before moving on to combat AI.

Good to know - it's not a breaker for me in any way - more of any observation than anything else :)

That has been an issue since IL2...
