S!
I read this whole thread now, and all I can say: THANKS LETUM! Your posts are really nice and useful texts to read.
I can add only this: due to limitation of the game engine, in several aspects, skip bombing of ships is much easier in IL-2 than in RL. This fact leads to very unrealistic outcomes of anyone trying to play a convoy protection or naval battle scenario.
So, even if this bomb fuzing solution is not 100% realistic, its impact on the style of combat in such scenarios is definitely increasing the realistic feel, if by nothing else, then at least by bringing the outcome of such battles to much more realistic levels.
Maybe the means are not 100% perfect, but the end justifies the means!
Thank you TD!
