The new bomb fuzing needs to be an option.

[Sokol1]

Did few test in QMB - Pacif Islands against friendly moving cargo ship.

A-20, P-40, P-39, He-111 - dropping from 30 to 80 meters and got good hits - some miss due wrong angles I think, since I test with keyboard (no Jstick plugged).

At 20 meters bomb dont explode.

Bomb delay 2 s. No one case of blew my plane.

i sorry that you guys can't be bothered to take 15 mins of your life to work it out yourselves, but thats your problem.

skip bombing is still easy, just a bit different.

Hi Fruitbat, thank you for your vid! Did a few test runs, changed my delay which was causing my plane being blasted, and dropping my bomb a bit earlier and it worked.
Only amusing thing is though that where in 4.09 3 sec delay was fine for a 800kg bomb, it is now deadly at 4.10. But with the delay changed and now releasing the bomb roughly at the same distance as in your vid and things are o.k. So it is doable.

Only thing not changed is my opinion of a certain smart alex.

Good thing about Letum is that he knows and understands stuff. Can't be said about everybody.

My bomb delay was 2 seconds, even with the G4M1. How slow are you guys going?!

I have survived with a 0 second bomb delay and been blown to pieces with a 3 second bomb delay,in the same plane,doing the same skip bombing,in 4.10.

There are bugs in this patch,maybe the way bomb fusing works is one of them...

Well, the new fuse arming delay, as I understand, just put an arming delay of 2 seconds before the bomb is armed. In the period between the launch and the final arming, the bomb can't touch anything, or the bomb simply don't explode. After the bomb was armed, when it touches something the delay set in your options do the rest.

How this can kill someone is something beyond my imagination. I tried a lot of bombing and all OK. What exactly happens, Uther?

One more video I do now:

I don't need to change a thing in my bombing runs over ships. And is good to newbies with 0 sec delay to don't blow their aircrafts...
