Flak issues

Post by Vorskl »

Guys,
have you faced with a problem when you cannot fire a Flak on airplanes UNLESS you move Flak?
I continuously run into this issue in AK scenarios. Patch 1.22

No need to move, you can still press the fire button even though the cursor doesn't show that. This is a very common issue, at least for me, I see it all the time.

If you want a full choice of targets, you need to press tab (air/ground switch),as the screen often shows only a limited selection.

The issue remains- I cannot target some planes and aa/at switch does not help. Only if I move my aa gun I can target other planes (:

Have seen this also. Click on your AA unit, then press the Air/Ground switch to bring air units to the top...you should then be able to target them with your AA.

Notice the distinction. There are two 'switch' buttons. One is the AA/AT switch (useful for things like the 88). But, think about the 12.8 AA gun. It doesn't have an AA/AT switch. You have to use the air/ground switch instead.

I noticed this problem too.

The cursor shows the "movement" icon, but if you click it will actually fire and not move.

Just save before to be sure.

No, at least in my case after I press TAB (ground/air switch button) I get the fire icon instead of the movement icon.
And my AA unit fires...
