PizzaDeOveja -> Fighter sweeps (10/24/2011 9:04:29 AM)


Have anybody else noticed that FS missions don't display the target if the player has set them up himself?? The mission review only states the target as a primary airfield if that mission was generated with the AI multi create all FS missions. *, if you manually create it states only the map coordinates and no target.
I tested it yesterday and anyways my glorious fighters seem to properly make the FS on the airfield I set up as target as intended, so I'm guessing it is something they missed.

* I don't think allows the player to set just only one FS, apparently if you want AI planning you will then have to erase the ones you don't like. Also it seems that you cant change the target of the AI created missions.

I have noticed the same thing, and have figured a workaround.

When I want to make a fighter sweep (this also works for night intruders), the first thing I do is to plan a recon mission of the target, plotting the same course and altitude that I want my fighter sweep to take. After I have done this, then I plot my sweep/night intruder raid and click the "Follow" button to set it's course. It'll put you right on target that way. After you have done this, and you don't really want the recon mission, you can cancel the recon, but your sweep/intruders will follow the original path.

Of course, a recent recon mission is always a good thing. Just watch the altitude.

Nice tip[:)]...I will try that tonight.
[:@]Damn this long hours at work that keeps me from planing glorious raids![:@]

Even thou the game doesn't state the target correctly, the FS works as intended because they machine gun some German fighters on the ground at the selected airport, but I always wonder whether the fs will destroy less planes because the system doesn't recognize the target or not.
I will have to test that also...
