  1. Didn't work for me. I'm not one to file bug reports as the problem usually lies between my chair and the keyboard.But something is definitely broken in my mission editor as the bombers that I've tested, B1, B52 and f-14, refuse to follow quantity of bomb and number of pass orders. Seems to be stuck on one or two bombs from the lead aircraft and continuous passes until Winchester or bingo.
  2. I moved the IP and got a bomb run as planned during tests so that is squared away. It seems however that my instructions for quantity or the mission editor itself may be broken. If you look at the screen shot in my OP, you can see I have it set to drop ALL in 1 pass. It never works, even with different AC types. What am I missing?
  3. Nice, that helps with the flight path but I still have the problem of only one bomb being released instead of the whole payload. Any thoughts?
  4. Just got into DCS about 4 months ago. Love it. Started messing with the mission editor and I'm extremely frustrated. I've been creating scenarios with one or two units just to experiment and see what everything does. My most recent frustration is the behavior of the AI bombing. First, I can't seem to get the aircraft to make a straight run over a target. I get a lot of circling and going around. For example, I set up a bombing run by 2 B-1s on an airfield. To keep it simple, it is a straight run from the spawn 500kts, 30,000ft. I set the bombing trigger on the way point about 10 miles prior, with the triangle on the target, set to drop all bombs, 1 pass. What I get is B-1's breaking right prior to the bomb drop zone, circling, making a pass 90 degrees out from my desired path and then it drops one or two bombs and circles for another pass. This is the case no matter what kind of aircraft I use, B1, B52, f14. All loaded out with mk82 only. I'll save my struggles of getting attack helicopters to behave properly for later.
  5. Thanks for the quick answer! I've been a P3D and MSFS guy forever, this is all pretty new to me. Just to confirm I'm understanding what you are saying correctly; I run the stable version, not open beta version of DCS World so the mapping radar is not available to me yet? I would need to be using open beta DCS?
  6. Are DCS module updates checked for and installed automatically on startup? Also, is the A/G radar implemented yet? If so, I can't seem to get it working. I switch to A/G mode and it doesn't change the radar from A/A mode nor can I box "surface" on the MFD in order to switch radar from A/A to A/G.
