4.10 Official Release

[TheGrunch]

Don't forget that more extensive changes to ship DMs are already planned for 4.11. Perhaps this fusing feature would have been better left out until these DM changes were added.

Yep, it should have been done the other way round. And please do the same for tanks. When I drop 1 ton of bomb at 10 meters from a tank, the tank might not be destroyed, but I'm sure the crew is at least wounded by the shockwaves, if the tank is not flipped upside down !

Yes, we need better DM modeling for tanks and vehicles, its not realistic to have only 2 damage states, 'undamaged' and 'destroyed'. For example, aircraft in Il2 have to loiter around (esp. if using gunpods) and pick off each individual vehicle until it reaches the destroyed state, same thing with bombs, a near hit does not do much if any damage to tanks.

What about the 2 secs for dive bombers? How is a Stuka or Pe-2 meant to operate?

what should be the proplem with the 2sec fuze and divebombers ????

perhaps you released your bombs much to low in the 4.09 past ??

I'd say that they have a minimum safe pull-out altitude which ensures the 2 sec. timeframe for fusing.

even more having the new G limits in mind..................

anyone else has the "proplem" that the "automatic AI" setting (when you swithing between the more seater positions) is not working like in 4.09 anymore ?
