Good day to everyone!

 

I was wondering if its possible in an aircraft with to or more internal guns to be able to choose one of them for firing.thanks in advance everyone for the feedback

Did you try the gun group keys?

 

NEXT_GUNGROUP=SEMICOLON

PREV_GUNGROUP=SHIFT+SEMICOLON

Thanks for the reply.no i didnt try it as i didnt even know it.I wonder if the system recognizes two different types of internal guns so it can summarize them as gun groups.

The aircraft has to be set up in to data file to use gun groups.

 

The example below is from the F-8E. You can see how its upper pair of 20mm cannons are in GunGroup=1 while the lower pair are in GunGroup=2. As such you can use the keys I mentioned above to cycle between the upper pair, lower pair, or all four. The AI however does not use gun groups so it is for players only.
