Hello guys.
Just wondering here, since the last update the “Secondary weapon ripple quantity” is not working for me anymore.
I changed the button and even tried to reset my control :O
But this option still not working anymore, I use daily so it was perfectly working before the Firebirds update.
Could someone confirm if this is broken only for me?
I think last time I played 2 days ago it was working.
Hi guys, leaving this for postriority.
The Ripple quantity only works when you select the weapon type first.
So lets say, you press “Select secondary weapon: 1000 Lbs some cool bomb name”
Then you press the ripple quanity and it works.
Not sure how was before, just remeber I press the button and it worked from start, but Im old so may be getting geezer
I usually choose a bomb series before joining the battle. But for that, you need to bind a separate key. Unfortunatelly it works for bombs only. You can use it without weapon selector. But you can bind a button for rockets salvo.
You’re not the only one. I used it to launch missiles, drop bombs in groups, launch rockets in groups, etc. sadly I don’t have a solution, but I am also looking for one.
What is going on? Can you explain? Maybe I can try to help you find a workaround
Well, when I do Shift+W then Shift+B (as one does with default keys to select weapons, then weapon ripple quantity) it gives you ripple quantities. 2, 4, 8, 16, continuous. But, if I select those ripple quantities then hit space to send that amount of weapons, it doesn’t fire. Just one. I used to use this to launch ATGMs, AAMs, drop bombs in ripple quantity, fire rockets in ripple quantity, you name it. But if I try it now, it just fires one rocket or drops one bomb, and doesn’t even turn on the radar for the missiles.
The fix is apparently to “fire secondary weapons” instead of the bomb button!
it works by dropping the bombs with “fire secondary Weapons” instead of the normal Bomb button
