Red_Camarada Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Hi everyone, yesterday I was doing a MP mission with some friends and noticed that the FLAKs are not shooting at enemy air units. I got two tracks showing this behaviour either on UK flak or german one. I think this is a bug not reported earlier. thanks TRflak.trk UKflak.trk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I also feel like the improvements were a bit too harsh/exagerated. Only way to get them to reliably fire is with the Kdo.Gerät. Without they sometimes aim "randomly" into the sky and never even attempt to fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a workaround you could use one of the factions that have all the units available. This way you should also be able to get the british ones to fire with the kdo.Gerät in their group. But for a proper solution, we have to wait for ED to implement the allied counterpart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team NineLine Posted May 16, 2022 ED Team Share Posted May 16, 2022 Yes, you currently need a Kdo to have German Flak fire, this is historically accurate. I will look into the UK as we do not have a director for that, it should not have these limitations currently. 1 2 Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a similar issue in that we want to add a lesser director for free units, right now they just wont fire well. 1 Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ED Team NineLine Posted January 6 ED Team Share Posted January 6 Last I heard we were going to add another director but I will need to look into it again. Forum Rules • My YouTube • My Discord - NineLine#0440• **How to Report a Bug** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
