The classic game remastered. Feel the power of flying a 10-men crew on a B-17 over occupied Europe in WWII. Plan the mission, choose your men and take action in every post onboard, from pilot to bombardier and machine gunners. Get ready for a high-flying adventure in this all-time classic remake.
This patch fixes several AI issues and includes some Quick Mission and Front End enhancements.
[b]Bomber Formation AI[/b]
[*] Catastrophic collisions should be significantly reduced when formations are turning
[*] Bombers will leave formation if they cannot maintain cruise speed
Note: Flak damage severely impacts the aircraft control surfaces, which impacts the bombers' ability to maintain formation positioning currently. We're aware of this and are continuing to work on improvements to this.
[b]Fighter Attack AI[/b]
[*] Fighter->B17 collisions should be significantly reduced
[*] Fighter AI will avoid bomber formation airspace
[*] Fighters will abort and head home after 4 passes (instead of 15 minutes), absent damage, fuel low, out of ammo
[*] When breaking off an attack, fighters will maintain break off posture until clear of the target
[*] When intercepting the target, fighters will abort if they get too close if that have failed to begin Attacking
[*] Gunners will only announce fighters if the fighter is directly attacking
[b]Attack of the Axis[/b]
[*] More squadrons, more fighters
[*] Attack wave squadrons are staggered
[b]Front End[/b]
[*] Controls can be reset with right click (on the control window on the right)
[*] Text windows in the front end will page up/down with mouse wheel
