B17s not carpet bombing . again?

[philstyle]

B17s do not seem to be carpet bombing any more.

I've been through all the fixes that have been discussed over the past two years and nothing is working for me.

 

 

Is this still a thing?

Hi philstyle

 

seems to be working for me.

 

Check the payload is set correctly and give them plenty of room to get in the correct formation.

 

if you have a mission or track I will take a look.

 

thanks

I've got payload, + minimum of 10km either side of initial AND bomb point with no turns or altitude changes.

 

 

Weapon release is correctly set.

Formations are correctly set.

 

 

I'm still fiddling about with the mission to see what the issue might be.

 

 

Problem is, the flight is almost the entire map, so testing it takes ages.

 

 

I'll be in touch if I keep having problems after a few more hours testing

Well, you could simply create a mission where the only units are bombers and they are 10km away from their dropping point. Just to test the settings... ctrl+y and shift+y is your friend for time manipulation.

OK, I might have resolved this.

 

 

It seems that having a "return fire" option turned on will prevent the bomb release.
