4-12 wish list (Merged)

[Lagarto]

Given the choice, I'd rather have more variety of surface ships than have them more artificially intelligent.

[fruitbat]

well, its an interesting request non the less.

having ships trying to evade when your dive bombing them would be fantastic, of that there is no doubt.

whether its remotely possible for TeamD to do i have no idea.....

What you are asking would be a huge task, as all the different types of ships would require their own discreet AI. Not to mention the load it would place on CPUs.

A possible workaround to that could be to try to time a mission so that when the strike group arrives the AI ships will begin a zig zag course.. I have seen this in coops before..

And it's a pain to get it to work out properly.

I'm not trying to show off here, but I have built hundreds of missions, and have come to that workaround. However, timing it properly can be a real pain. So the ships will normally begin their evasive moves before the correct moment, and even without paying attention to the attackers direction at all.

Results with that workaround are not entirely bad, don't get me wrong. But if the feature could ever be implemented to some extent, it would awesome.

I'd rather have the effort put into some IJN heavy cruisers, and battleships that actually saw more than two combat actions.

of course, thx for ns-23...

but another load, it's was NOT ns-37, it's was n-37 - principal difference, and if DT really wants give to us prototype of yak-9ut with n-37 + 2 b-20, it's need to do correctly...

differences of cannons look here...

maybe, b-20m and n-45 can be as "what if" too...

Also the flight model was altered slightly to reflect the pilots notes on the nose being noticeably heavier and slightly affecting handling. I still think it flies beautifully.

good... did not know...

Not all that different from the Yak-9UT. Aside from being all metal if memory serves, the notes I have state that the initial armament was the same as the Yak-9U (2xUBS and 1xShVAK) and was later changed to 3xB-20 (B-20M in the hub, B-20S in the decking) post war. I believe the N-37 and N-45 were also fitted but I'm not sure.

you not understood, i talk about yak-9 with VK-105PF... maybe it's my fault, sorry...

all principal changes for yak-9p with VK-105PF it's second shvak instead UBS...

if it's not hard, i think, DT can give this load for yak-9 1942 for us, or how another airplane... easy "what if"... i all time wanted try this, but NO any mods...

plus, of course, were many similar not serial yaks, but maybe this is too...

and how this plane can be use in game or online? in serious online (wars i mean) it's CAN be use, trust me ("front tests", prize etc)... like i-185 now...

How about we wait and see what triggers we will eventually get in 4.13?

To both: I just made a suggestion. With all due respect, considering it or not falls entirely within Team Daidalos.

I'm not going to defend my points, nor going to start a discussion about it. I perfectly understand your comments about the idea, and I know that you don't mean bad, but it seems you are making it just too relevant. Please note that I didn't try at any point to make some sort of demand out of it, and I apologize if I made it sound like that (I'm from Uruguay, so you'll have to excuse my English).

I trust TD has a traced route, and will only pay attention to crazy stuff like mine if it doesn't strive too much from what's already planned.

Ah yes... NS-37 versus N-37. I'd have to look at my notes again to be absolutely sure. I think both versions of the cannon were fitted at one time or another. I think the NS-37 was fitted at one point during the prototype stages which is why it was included (and the game codes for that cannon already exist). Please double check but I don't think the N-37 was available until 1946?

N-45 was another optional armament addition but I also think that was post war as well. I'm not sure about that. The focus in my mind was definitely on aircraft and armament types that exists during the war and saw use.

As for the Yak-9P I was thinking about the all metal version that was the immediate successor and follow on to the Yak-9U. I didn't realize you were talking about the earlier Yak-9P. Is it based on the early Yak-9U prototype with VK-105PF? Didn't some of these early Yak-9U's make the front line? That may be the type that could be done rather than the P model? I understand the interest in the unique armament configuration. What visual external differences existed to fit the second ShVAK? Any pictures? I'm curious if nothing else.
