Bomb Racks/Bays

[FOODFINDER]

Relatively speaking here B-17s and such could drop say 10 decent bombs at a time in a small part of there plane. On my B-25 which uses 90% of the plot space on a hangar 1 I can drop 4 at a time and 8 in total. If there was a way that we could modify the current dropping system and set something up like a torpedo tube where there are 2-10 dispensers lined up and all we have to do is set it from 1 point then drop them all at the same time. Most people would say this is OP but then the system could have a single bomb to drop like how the bomb bays were. Maybe have some kind of fence thing with pre-made bombs on them that get dropped?
This idea is a little far out there but I thought it would be more realistic then the current system.
Open to all thoughts and ideas and I can try to make a simpler explanation if anybody wants that.

B-17's Bombay, might look similar in game

The idea sounds good, but like you said, a little OP. This would most likely be exploited or used in one of those "planes" that are literally just pads of wool with bombs on them. Imagine about 5 of those. . . but also, we don't have a coder at the moment. But lets not bring that subject up. Overall good idea!

Also the new rules on forums doesn't want suggestions on new code, I like the idea

Ah yes.. we don't have a coder. I know an excellent MC coder in real life who was more then willing to help us out in exchange for a small payment which I was going to pay... but he also happened to be fat and study at the same school as me. And well, I quite frankly can't stand fat people.

So eh. Let's say that he doesn't really likes me anymore.

Maybe you should stop, before this turns into a flame war. . .

Enough of this new coder crap.

Better?

[FOODFINDER]

Well I didn't know my idea would get so much support so I decided to thing about it a little more. Maybe put a limit of 1 or 2 bomb bays per plane. Like I said they should only get about 1 drop and maybe make it so that you have to drop all of them instead of just a few at a time. Pilots would pretty much have 1 shot at hitting a ship so if the ship survived the first volley it would pretty much be fine. Another counter to the OP of it would be making them extremely heavy so you would have to have multiple jets or engine 7s to stay in the air. They could also make it so that the bigger bays would have a slower maximum speed then the smaller racks or dive bomb type planes which would make them more vulnerable. I think for the most it would need to be tested by fire then adjusted if it's to over or under powered.
I will build an example of anybody would like to see it in game once the server gets back up... :/

This forum might stil be around when we get a new coder so I thought the idea would be able to evolve until then

Yeah...

There's not gonna be a new coder...

Don't get excited but I could try to code for NBZ. I would have to go over the code with some of my friends who are better at coding then me but I could probably pick up where the old coder left off. If I can't get it I can try to convince one of my friends to work on it as a side project.

No. The source code is not going to be given to anyone. This has been answered in the past. There will not be a new coder because Max IS the coder, and as such is the only one who will read his own code. Its not up to anyone else, nor will any suggestion be added to the game because, again, its up to him.

Ok. I hope Max gets coding again soon then.
