Soviet Airforce not flying ground support at all

Post by MButtsworth »

Hello, it is 1942 and I have a massive superiority in planes with Soviet air force set to ground support and nothing else but it is not flying at all. I have tried religiously setting each air army hq to ground support and in desperation turn after turn and in desperation tried the ai last turn with disastrous results after the airfields were overrun but the airforce is still not flying ground support at all.
Any ideas why?
Turn saves sent.

i would only guess that weather for GS might be bad, or you put air groups on rest instead of day or day & night

Only other possibility i can think of is the air support button being toggled off? Are your planes not flying ever, or are fighters still flying for intercepts and the like?

Ground attack and recon are flying but not ground support.

It is the 'x' button to enable / disable ground support.
