• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

AI Dropping Bombs Possable?

Is it possible to make AI planes drop things like bombs? If so does anyone know how it is done? This is for FSX Accelleration.

Thanks, Dan c.
 
They should probably just call it "Rickle," since apparently I'm the only one that uses it. Either that or all the other Googlers are too urbane to admit to running someone's search for them. Anyway, the term was "fsx ai bomb" and this was the first hit:

 
As a slight aside, the developers of FSX@War are presently having a difficult time maintaining their freeware product and would welcome anyone who could assist them in keeping the product up to date. The add-on also works with various versions of P3d despite the product name.
 
Just an idea that springs into mind (i do not know it this is technically possible):
- Create 1 AI plane - shaped as aircraft - and create a AI flightplan for it.
- Create 1 AI plane - shaped as the bomb -
- Partially copy the flightplan from the plane-shape to the bomb-shape - p to the point where the bomb need to be release
- Manually add the "dropping of the bomb curve" to the flightpath of the bomb-shaped IA aircraft.
 
I did check out the FSXatWAR. From what I can tell it needs the Tackpack program to work. Your AI plane and bomb plan sound a bit complicated. And I don't know how to slew an AI object. I know how to slew my plane though.
