B-57B Canberra needs a fix.

[Basher11 0]

I was trying to load the Mk83 for a drill on teh Canberra. The internal bay won't provide accomodation. After checking, I find it is a problem with one of the parameters under the [bombBay]:

 

Original

[bombBay]

SystemType=WEAPON_STATION

StationID=9

StationGroupID=6

StationType=INTERNAL

AttachmentPosition=0.0,0.0,0.0

AttachmentAngles=0.0,0.0,0.0

LoadLimit=4096

AttachmentPosition001=-0.371,-0.053,-0.550

AttachmentPosition002= 0.371,-0.053,-0.550

AttachmentPosition003=-0.371, 1.747,-0.600

AttachmentPosition004= 0.371, 1.747,-0.600

AttachmentPosition005=-0.371, 3.547,-0.650

AttachmentPosition006= 0.371, 3.547,-0.650

AttachmentPosition011= 0.000, 1.747,-0.670

AttachmentPosition012= 0.000, 3.547,-0.720

DiameterLimit=0.4

LengthLimit=2.2

BombBayAnimationID=3

BombBayOpenTime=0.8

BombBayCloseTime=0.8

MinExtentPosition=-0.61,-1.16,-1.12

MaxExtentPosition= 0.61, 4.31,-0.45

 

Please change to

AI will load and release the weapon now.

The B-57 doesn't need a fix at all since it only carried 500lb bombs (Mk82) in her bomb bay. If it was meant to carry bigger bombs (like Mk83) there would probably be no need for a LengthLimit entry...

Yup, somebody's not spending enough time researching the REAL aircraft, before posting spurious data.

 

BTW, M117s could/can be carried on the wing stations.

 

Probably wouldn't be interested in this thread, either I guess, with the fixes:

And with that, I'm closing this one down
