Insert ALL your suggestions Below

My Suggestion Would Be a very simple timer option when the 'Plane goes boom update' comes out to see how long you can survive each time and perhaps add a leaderboard (Which i don't know if adding one is possible but the timer must be).

Then you could get for example +5 secs for dropping the bombs each time (Bonus and what not)

This would create Replayability and Competition, I believe this would be a major plus for this already great mod. Thank you for considering my suggestion C:

thanks for making the discussion!
yeah, the timer option and overall summary of the round would be cool and I already see how I could implement that, so that one is on the to-do list now. but I think leaderboards won't be possible, at least not the easy way. I've seen people doing something similar but they often have their own server where they store the data

How about making a system like
add the bomber crew (there's npc's that you can work with)
and you can choose the amount of the crew in the menu (example : 3 pilots)
and they could us the guns or sit in spots that are not really often used (like the pilot seats or radio seats)

I really like your idea and I'd love to implement it, but I don't want to use other people's content as requirement in this mod. If I were to create it, I'd have to port these models myself but at the moment my model exporter is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up everything that's human-like :(

Ive seen other mods that use other peoples models and etc and they just ask the creator if they can use em, then you just credit the author in the discription without making it a requirement, but im not too sure how it works, im new to hammer and dont know any scripting or modeling for that matter.

idk if the author will allow for something like this, but we'll see, I'll ask him later on

and I need your opinion guys, what's better: voice lines like 'bandits 6'o clock' in their own voice menu (under C), or like in the game where NPC's alone are commenting on what's happening?

Suggestions.
1: Add Both Take offs and Landings as a optional mode
2: More Bomber Aircraft like the B-25, B-24, or PBY-5a, hell maybe even british ones like Wellingtons and Halifaxes

Both: I think it should be an Option to have Npcs Comenting or not

3: Add a Straggler, basicaly a bomber with 3 or all 4 engines out slowly creeping below and behind the formation to likely either crashland or be shot down
4: Add the option to remove music
5: Have the Bombay Close once the Bombs Drop so the Doors Dont Cause Drag on the bomber *Slowing it down Slightly*
6: Ability to change Flight Level in Pilots Seat

7: Add the Abiility to Have some of your Gunns Manned by AI, you could say how many AI you want *Could go up to all guns being manned or none at all* Would be Usefull if your Rping as a Radio Operator or Pilot

using custom forced playermodels instead of forcing the rebel models would be neat, using the actual bomber crew models that are already on the workshop for example.

@Epicstormchaser (WW1-WW2 Buff)

I like your ideas, but I'd have to reject most of them because I want to keep this mod as map recreation, so things like new bombers, landing and takeoff won't really fit, this would have to be a completly new map. Also source engine is an old garbage and the map is really small, all you see is a 3D skybox, so I can't really change the flight altitude, the player's bomber is completly static and does not move so can't steer it anyhow. As for bomb bay, you can actually close it after the bombs drop. Stragglers and AI manned turrets sound really good and I will try to make them happen

@teamsuperfoxx the playermodels will be there, I just don't know when because I have to ask the original author first

Hey, there's a suggestions. In the Bomber Mission on the original COD:UO, there's a escort squadron who leaves after the first combat. This is more a reminder from my part, now it's your turn if you decide to put this on the map or not, and for sure if you can do that anyway.

Keep pushing forward with yours projects!

In the spawnmenu for this mod there is an unused Spitfire model, Im assuming the Devs will add them in.

*Another Suggestion im sorry*: Can you make the player bomber appear normal when your outside of it? Because right now the Canvas and entire nose section appears missing from it.

Also Would you actualy be willing to do other bombers in the future for a Seperate map or even in a map pack?!?


Be Aware this map is Extremely nice how it is allready and its one of the nicest maps ive seen
