Recon AD losses by flak fixed in 1.02.19 Beta

[Zovs]

It appears that the high flak losses I was seeing previously for Recon missions has been fixed with this version.

Previously I was stating to work around this to change the default settings. I think in some cases it may be worthwhile to do so, but in general after running two exact tests in my solo game with the basic defaults of the system I am pleased to see the excessive flak losses have been corrected.

By default I mean this is how I ran those tests (in both cases it was on turn 3 of the GC and my losses were under 35 in both instances.

Recon Interdiction

Target Priority: Unit High (all others set to none)
Area: (any range)
Intensity: Low
Fly weather: >Poor
Schedule: D1
Strike num: Auto(x)
Altitude: 17000
Priority: V High
Min AC(Esc): 0(0)
Req AC(Esc): Auto(Auto)
Partial escort: Yes

NOTE: If you do want to setup GA I suggest doing all the Recon missions first, then going back and changing from Target Priority High ignore and then Interdiction to High.

Many many thanks to the Developers for fixing this.

Mine seem to be going up. On the last beta and now even more on the current beta.

1.02.19 seems to be working fine, I have ran 6 turns and no excessive recon losses. Averaging 28-40 losses per turn. Previously I was get 100 or more a turn.

This is from my solo game with .19 patch, numbers suggest all is well now.

I did only 1 turn with recon and I am seeing much lower flak losses.
