Default Bombsight BZG-2

Hi all!

First of all: Thanks TD by your great work, and warm congratulations!

I've found a problem about the bombsight BZG-2 (it's not a bug).

What if a player needs to perform a recallibration of the bombsight before his bomber reaches the target?


Actually there is not a way to do it after the command "Bombsight Automation" is turned ON by the first time within the mission; and many things could happen: sinking of the plane, changes of TAS, miss of the chosen landmark by clouds, etc.

The Bombsight Automation of the BZG-2 works like a stopwatch; the elapsed time between the ON/OFF switching is computed together the input Altitude to solve the TAS internally, and finally we get the Drop Angle as output. Right?

Well... IMHO we would need a command "Reset Bombsight" to restart the BS callibration as many times as the player needs. By now, the only way to do it is... reflying the mission.
