Does the AI ever lose energy?

Bingo!

This is the one aspect of AI coding that sets the "predictable" apart from the "believable".

My main gripe all these years with IL-2 was the predictability of the AI. If I recall it was one of the patches during the Pacific Battles(?). Flying around in my FW I’d ALWAYS end up with “pilot killed” messages even if the bullets were no where near the pit. Assigning stats and random events to the AI would create a believable playing experience for SP and COOPs imo.

I might give BoB II another go, I’ve had it sitting on the shelf for about 3 or more years now and installed it only once
