Suggestion for 4.12 patch, fix the rear gunners on bombers

What about the ammo too ? Between the Computer AI and the Human AI on a turret or gun position on a plane. It seems that the AI has more Ammo than the Human in a normal speed setting.

I don't see how that could be possible. Probably, it's just managing its ammo better than a human.

OT - Personally, I think it would be great to see ammo-reloads for drum-fed guns.

How about give us some visual clue if the gunner is killed? Sometimes i keep shooting like stupid or making zoom passes because it seems to me that the gunner is ok, and he is allready dead. If it is not legal to show blood or bend gunner, at least make him disappear. Thanks a lot to team Daidalos.

+1. Currently, it's ok to shoot pilots and troops running on the ground and watch them crumple and fall, and it's ok to shoot pilots in chutes and watch them slump in the harness...I think having a slumped pilot or gunner in the cockpit should be acceptable.

For some planes which were included with the original IL2 game, there's a "gore" option which shows blood and slumped over dead crew, which can be turned on via the config.ini.

I could live without the "ketchup" (especially for the U-2/Po-2 gunner), but it would be nice if the "obviously dead crew" option could be extended to all planes in the game.

Gore setting was removed completely since one of the DT updates. I really don't want to see the 'ketchup' though (I know what it used to look like in Il-2). Only those with the Russian game version can turn these on.
