Too bad.
Earlier I was able to assign targets immediately after launching aircraft, and then forget about the group; it will fly to the target, bomb it, return back, and get ready for the next sortie, all without me even aware of that. I watch enemy units in meanwhile; if some enemy start threatening the group while in transit, this will get my attention, otherwise the strike is fully automatic process.
With the update, I have to launch the group, plot course near enough to the target, not forget about them when they arrive, and then assign targets. The not forget part is really difficult. As there is often some long time, often a day of wall clock time, between launch and actual attack, quite often I get busy in some other area, and the group will RTB because of bingo fuel.
Maybe we can get the old behavior back for manually controlled groups? or maybe get a staff message that such-and-such group, which is not assigned to any mission, arrived at its last waypoint and is orbiting there awaiting orders?
