Loadouts for Escorts?

Post by EJGr.Ost_Chamel »

Hi,

I have a question about loadouts for escort flights. So far there is no possibility in SEOW-MP to select loadout (+ amount of fuel) for escorts. The loadout is chosen by the system and it seems to me, that it always chooses the last one from an alphabetically ordered list of loadouts for the plane in question.
We are actually thinking about a campaign in the north sea sector, where we want to use Bf110-G2 as long range escort fighters, but SEOW always gives these escorts the loadout r7m3 (4 x General Purpose Bomb (50 kg) + 2 x 300 Litre Drop Tank) which doesn't really make sense. :?

So is there a way to change the behaviour of the system and to choose another loadout as default for escorts?
The best solution would be of course to have escort loadouts as selectable option in the MP - so maybe the developers might consider to implement this?

Greetings

Hmm, the code tries to identify the pure droptank loadout, if such exists, from available loadouts, but obviously it isn't smart enough to do it reliably. I'll have a look at that.

As a workaround, just eliminate those loadouts you aren't interested in. That might help.
