Im playing the long 44 scenario as the allies and have come across something peculiar. During RAF nite raids german nite fighters crash in huge amounts--60-100 planes just outright crash while flying to intercept.

I have not seen this during the 43 scenario so im wondering if this is some kind of bug. The planes are always the BF-110's and a smaller number of Ju-88's. All the crashes occur before any combat has taken place and in decent weather.

are you flying elint/ecm missions?

there was an old bug that caused this, I thought I'd nailed it by setting intercepts to a minimum alt of 500 feet. Seems the alt may be getting set somewhere else.

You have more ecm planes in the 44 scenario, which may be why you are seeing it...

Hi.

I played original BTR and experienced this so I've been looking out for it. I'm playing allies v AI 1943 campaign in new game and have seen it once, when a Ju 88 NF gruppe wiped itself out at 0 ft. Happened in Dec 43, if it helps.

Love what you've done with the game - it's a massive improvement in realism and reliability.

yeah i am and the crashes start once the ecm missions launch. Funny how it has not happened in the 43 scenario as im running ecm missons there too.
