Would it be at all possible to make the paratroopers in the cargo planes kill-able? Like say you have 28x paratroopers in a C-47 and a Bf-109 strafes you and kills about 6 or seven so you only drop 20 troopers? It could be set up on a random variable for how many are killed or if any are killed, I just thought it would be pretty cool and immersive to have something like that.

[Dataman]

Yeah, that would be great. However, I'm not sure how one would make a mod like that, but since paratroopers count as ordnance in-game, that would be included if anyone makes a mod that allows bombs to explode while still in the bomb bay when you get damaged badly enough.

make a request thread for this!

[JG26 von Richten]

Moved, and is alll the ordinance stuff hardcoded into the game? because the bomb idea you had Dataman was a great one too

the best suggestion ever. i am not sure if it would be possible, but it is a really good idea. it would also make Kamikaze practical in the game, since bombs would do damage when still attached.

[Dataman]

It's already possible, but very uncommon, to ignite droptanks in-game. Perhaps we could take that vulnerability and copy it for bombs and other ordnance?

[JG26 von Richten]

That could maybe work, and then have the armament set on one variable and the troopers on a separate variable? like say bombs=45 so theres a 45% chance of a bomb exploding in-bay, and then troops=75% s theres a 75% chance some troopers would be killed and so on

we could also make the droptanks explode and replace the crater by a droptank object :p

Unrealistic, but that would be fun.

wait, au contraire, it would be more realistic, no ? I meant when you drop it and it hit the ground, it would explode like a bomb with a damage value of 0 and instead of using the model/mesh for the crater it would use a droptank model

[JG26 von Richten]

That means if a plane was loaded with BLU's and a droptank, napalm eeverywhereee! 

[mojojojo]

but really, if bombs/paratroopers/droptanks could explode/die on impact or when shot, it would greatly improve realism.
