AA guns sometimes need to move before firing - bug?!

Post by CroCop96 »

Hello, everyone.

Sometimes, AA guns *need* to move before firing - for example, if an enemy airplane is within range, but the ground hex underneath it is empty, when hovering over the aircraft, I cannot fire at it, my AA gun just moves to that hex (both self-propelled and towed guns). Is there a way to directly fire at such planes without moving first?

Furthermore, a second question: sometimes, when confronted with multiple enemy airplanes 1, 2, and 3 hexes away, those which are 1 hex away simply won't present as targets (no reticle at all), and those which are further away will be available as targets normally. Is THIS a bug?

You need to select air on the ground air toggle. This is normal if ground units are present and the toggle is set to ground units

Intuitive, yet I haven't figured it out - thought it was a bug every time. Thanks

It may big a small bug. I think AAs should always, when we select them, start aiming the skies by default.
