Settings should be something like that:

Mavis: orders naval search between 70-100 %

Betties/Nells: order naval attack with search level 10-30 %. I usually set their max range to 11, the range of the escorting Zeroes.

Zeroes: order escort, with no target hex chosen. CAP level 50% or less (the best IMOO if you have 2 units if to have one fly 90% CAP and the other fly escort, 0% CAP)

In WITP bombers will usually ignore solitary transports (one ship TF), PTs and barges. They will only attack the last two if set at 100 feet alt.

As someone allready said, check all you unit leaders in IJNAF units. Give both Zero and bomber units agressive leaders with high ratings. Some start with leaders with 50/50 level and changing them will really increase their efficiency.

Weather also plays a factor in the Nell's finding their targets and being able to take off for a mission. Are they set to Day or night operations? Do these task forces have fighter escorts? is their Airfield damage? is their enough Air Support on the ground? We need more info to help you.
We programmers never finish, we just run out of time...
