olperfessor -> "Bombing Acc" and "Major Skills" (2/22/2010 2:01:46 PM)

(1) On some bombers' Air Unit Information Screens, we see a numerical representation of bombing accuracy (e.g. "Bombing Acc: 24%") which I used to guess was calculated using the individual pilots' ratings (so that transferring experienced pilots in or out would change this rating), a nice shorthand way for us to estimate a unit's effectiveness or need for training.

But then I found a unit with "Bombing Acc: 0" (and of course some with no accuracy rating), despite having pilots with some skills. So this accuracy seems independent of the pilot mix. Is this a representation of the unit experience, presumably reflecting ground crew and staff experience? I'm not looking for details of how it is calculated, just a general sense of what it represents.

(2). The "Major Skills" that some air units have (e.g. "air," "land bombing" or "defensive"). . . are these achieved by the totals of pilot skill ratings in the area? Or based on the unit's past missions?

Apologies if answers appear elsewhere in the forum. I looked.

Bombing accuracy is calculated when your units actually fly attack missions. Bomb hits out of bombs dropped.

Presumably the Bombing Accuracy Percentage is just "historical" and does not effect any future mission (?).

It is just information how your unit has been performing.

Are you sure this is accurate? I have several Dutch units with bombing accuracy numbers which I KNOW have never flown a mission.

Are you certain? I once thought so too, but I had disbanded a unit who had a few pilots with a couple of missions and they were recruited into a different unit, and now that unit had a bomber accuracy rating i think.

check the PILOTS screen and see what their mission count is.

Ah, that might be it... I'm pulling pilots out of certain units and pushing them into others in order to create a few combat units and some non-combat, training only (unless the SOBs are at the gates in which case even the training units will be thrown into the fray ) units.

So, probably I have some of my better pilots from other units in those units and they must be giving them the pretty high bombing % rates.
