Editor Quick Questions

Post by Nemesis III »

Some quick questions on Aircraft editor screen:

1. What is the effect between choosing the check Medium Bomber or Attack Bomber or Light Bomber Capable for a certain Aircraft in the game?
2. What is meant by DT Ordinance? What is the related effect?
3. In the aircraft ordinance table, what is the Filter column used for? What are the possible numbers that can be used? And for what effect?

Thanks of the answers

1): Selecting medium or light bomber determines what size of airfield the aircraft needs. Attack bombers (like the big-gun Mitchells or the Invader) use their forward-firing machineguns/cannons to strafe targets whilst attacking.

2): DT ordnance means that if you tick the box, the aircraft can carry drop tanks. Otherwise, it can't.

3): AFAIK, filter isn't used for anything.

Thank you Terminus for your reply.
However, I have noticed that all aircraft that carry drop tanks do not have "DT Ordnance" box checked. In light of the second point of your answer, can you explain why?

Thanks again.

Good point. I'll go ask one of the Air Team members.

I've spoken to the Air team people, and you can ignore "DT Ordnance". It doesn't do anything.
