FMB Stuka Leader/subordinate dive bombing

Attack Column

At present if you send a flight of 4 into a "SET" attack waypoint they will all hit the "SET" waypoint target for the lead flight "1"

We need to be able to set each aircraft to attack individual targets at the "SET" waypoint.

Currently

The only work around is to set 9 individual Stukas to attack their own target in the column.

Setting a "Gattack" point will only have them randomly drop without diving sometimes.
Note
1850m used to be the minimum altitude AI performed a dive bomb attack from correctly.

Post the mission here and we can see whats happening easier

Thnak u mate, But the problem is SOLVED yeaaah!
I set all the flights in group of three with one leader as i said above, the GATTACK waypoint know don't have any target, doing this every flight attack randomly and NOT following the leader.
The result is a perfect formation from the spawn to the obj, a random attack on DIFFERENT TARGET CHOOSED RANDOMLY, perfect formation from the obj to land!!! Near the GATTACK waypoint i have the enemy convoy and i on't care what ships they attacks... I hope u'll understand my english thank u all!

In 10 years of messing about with the FMB I've never tried to build a dive bombing mission until today and I must admit that the idea of not setting a "Gattack" waypoint target made me think that the stukas would attempt to level bomb, or maybe dive and drop bombs into the sea. I was pleasantly surprised when they dived on separate targets each time I ran the mission, hitting at least 2 ships every time (1 time they sank all 3 ships).
As they say,"You learn something new every day"
I'm gonna play with this some more

I have never been able to get stukas to strafe after bombing even if at another location with the convoy linked to the gorund attack icon.

Almost useless, and extremely undesirable.

I've tried to set unmatched (by time) waypoint and they still bomb different target... 9 flights 9 different target.. I've tried more the 20 time...
I'm extremely glad to see that once in a while i can give help to other users instead flooding the forum of foolish questions!!!
