Automating Night Bombing

[urchin]

Hi all,

I just purchased the game, and I have a dumb question. Is there any way to just completely automate the RAF night bombing? I just don't have a whole lot of interest in doing it, I am really only interested in the USAAF daylight campaign.

So far I see there is an option to autoplan ALL missions, and I found an option that says I can autoplan missions but when I set Bomber Command to computer control nothing seems to happen. It doesn't plan any missions, at least that I can see. If I hit the 'plan all missions' radio button, it seems to plot out a few missions... but then I can click the button again and it will plot out a couple more little missions, and so on and so forth. Is there any way to just automate it?

Thanks in advance!

Set BC to computer under the doctrine. For that first turn you will need to click the autoplan button. Pressing it again will pick another target area and attempt an attack if there are enough resources. Once you are past that first turn, BC will plot its own missions at the start of future turns, based on the target type you have selected under doctrine.

Remember though, by not taking part in the night war yourself, you miss an opportunity to manage the attrition of the axis pilots and planes, as the AI isn't as efficient. The night war is a sort of sidebar to the strategic game, but it does assist in your goals...

Thank you for your help sir, it is much appreciated.

also, remember the moonlight is going to effect the AI planning, it is going to wait for the better times to plot it's raids
