4-12 wish list (Merged)

[SPITACE]

it will be great to see the Beaufighter backseat in the sim with the rear gun.

1) Better ship AI, (avoid sunken ships, minor evasive maneuvers as in COD)

2) Ship convoys, or task forces.

3) Selectable Explosive cargo for when destroying those ships they blow up, instead of just sinking slowly.

4) An object that generates panicked people when doing low level passes. (there was an AAA mod, that have this implemented, but for some reason it was abandoned) like when strafing vehicles columns.

5) Recover the project of having an observer over enemy targets, so that it triggers artillery fire over enemy positions. This single thing, could add more possibilities to the game experience than 10 new planes! More so if it is also applied to ship artillery.

IMHO roads are the ugliest feature of the game’s landscape, made of straight, oddly zigzagging sections. Is there any chance to make them look like real-life roads?

Bug in 4.11m with hotfix (just for me?)

- When moving the mouse, it's zoom-in or out automaticly, but I don't want that... When I am the gunner, it's annoying
- Bombs are very strange. When I drop bombs, I know that It need to be arm but how? It's have to hit the ground with the front of the bomb? I tried, but I have to be at about 400 m or higher

Care to explain a bit more?

When I take a spitfire (exemple), I take 2 bombs 250lbs, before the patch, I was able to drop my bombs just when I respawn, but it's ok that they remove the explosion for that, but when I am in the air and I want to drop my bombs, I have to be at 400m in diving for the bombs explode. I can't do tactic bombing like skipbombing, etc.

What fuse setting have you selected?

Luno is right... if you have realistic bomb fuses on in 4.11 the settings are much different. You have different types of bomb fuses and some are better than others for things like skip bombing and low level attacks. Others are better and more damaging when dropped from higher altitude with an instant contact explosion.

If you are skip bombing fly the run at 100 meters (generally) and at high speed with the low level fuse and a minimal delay (4.0 seconds is usually the lowest). The bombs need a moment to arm which is why you fly at 100 meters rather than 5 meters... but the low level setting will arm them fairly quickly and then the delay timer allows you to escape while the bombs impact the side of the ship and sink just beneath the waterline before exploding.
