Skip bombing

[Wrench 9,873]

I think I've figured out how to at least simulate it for the PTO (well, SoWesPac) players.

 

my testing has been pretty good against various types of ships, but I'd like some of you all the have a wack at it. Mind you, the new Veltro B-25s for SWP WILL be equipped for it, and have a year and mission specific loadout already 'built in' when they're released.

 

I've also tested it on the DAT Havocs, and it works the same.

 

So, any volunteers? I'll attach the new weapon, with instructions on how to modifiy the aircraft data ini to make loadable (as it's no longer really a bomb)

Wrench, send it to me and I will take a look at it.

I was going to give you a report but my joystick has stopped working. I need to check and see if it is the stick or my computer before I can do the testing.

 

While you wait for me to resolve the joystick I thought I would give you some links to charts about the B-25's bomb load and a B-25J Flight Manual.

Wrench, I got my joystick working again and have tested the 500lb_SB with the B-25DS_v2k. The Skip Bombs work well when deployed by the player while making a low altitude high speed attack run but the AI does not seem to want to use them.

true.

haven't figured out WHY!! Stupid **@!!*ers!! LOL!!!

 

iirc, I added the CruiseMissile AI statements.

 

If you can figure out, man, that'd be GREAT!!! Fix whatever needs doing!! :)
