Possible Bombing in train problem? (Not a Bug)

[The Jack]

I am wanting to use the Harrier for runway interdiction... So I tried it and I am not sure if I have a bug or it is me using it incorrectly...

 

When I do a bombing run on a runway I set a full load of bombs to drop in train along the runway but this doesnt happen. The first bomb or the first pair hack but then the subsequent bombs come of in one big group.

 

Does anyone else have this problem?

You have to hold the Bomb Pickle pressed until the sequence is completed.

 

Also, both Chuck's Guide and the Pocket Guide do not describe the ACP settings correctly.

 

QTY is the total number of bombs to be dropped in the sequence.

 

MLTY is the number of stations from which bombs will be dropped on each puls of the sequence. This is currently broken, in that you can dial in a number greater than the total number of stations with bombs of the selected type.

 

A correct example of how to set up a sequence of dropping 12 bombs, one every 100 feet (given carrying 12 MK-82) would be:

 

QTY = 12

MLTY = 1

INTV = 10

 

Line up with the runway with ARBS targeted on the initial intended impact point. Follow CCIP or CCRP and press and hold the Pickle accordingly, util QTY number of bombs have been released.

Don't feel so bad, all remaining bombs going out in one group the moment you release pickle is a bug.

And the manuals/guides are not up to date. So RTFM won't help.
