1.25i Fighter bombers are better fighters than fighters

[Thrake]

If adding heavy enough bombs to aircraft designs, the aircraft gains more than one attack per round. This applies also applies to air attack values.

Here's an extreme exemple to illustrate, going from 700 to 3000 air attack:

...Why does the dogfight score in the screenshots go from 16 to 40 after adding 160 extra tons of bombs? Is that another bug?

[Thrake]

True, I didn't notice this one. I have no idea why it's happening.

Good post! Seems you are right. Going about fixing this asap.

Dogfight values are actually okay for game calc purposes but wrongly displayed in blue print (they get multiplied by # of attacks , this should not happen). Will also be fixed
