First time TD introduced flares, I fall directly on the mission builder and devloped a mission with pathfinders dropping flares over the target, and followed it myself with a bomber wing at 8000m.
I was dissapointed, I was already planing to build a whole night bombing campaign on it.
Like you said, that 5000 limit, doesn't imply that the higher bombing altitude could be set over there, because you need to see them from afar, forcing you to bomb from no more than 3000m if you pretend to hit anything.
The bad thing with that, is that you loose the main advantage of flying so high, that is to make things very difficult for opposing fighters.
Anyway, lights are good enough for building missions on earlyer periods. They are just not good enough for pathfinders missions.
Did you ever tried to work on building a "hole" on the lightning layer?
Maybe this could do the trick.
